Companies are working hard to remove bias and discrimination from the decisions that they make about people. It might seem counter intuitive for us to ask you for more personal information, but we need these details about you so that your results are normalized against the groups you fall into and are bias-free.

This is a practice where standard groups are required to calculate assessment scores. A standard group must contain a representative sample of participants who share common characteristics. For example, we have separate norm groups for men and women within certain ages and we assess your profile against that norm group so that the result is standardized. This all so that you get a fair chance!
