At CIRA, people remain at the centre of our recruitment process. While CIRA uses recruitment platforms that include artificial intelligence-enabled features, which may be used to support administrative processes or skills-based assessments, these features are intended to assist our recruitment activities and do not replace human judgment. All applicant screenings, interviews, evaluations and selection decisions are conducted by our staff. Artificial intelligence is not used to make autonomous or final hiring decisions.
