Hi there, we recognize that all too often, potential candidates don’t apply for a position simply because they don’t hit every single criteria included in the job description—particularly members of underrepresented groups.
AI in Recruitment
At Loopio, we leverage artificial intelligence (AI) technology to enhance our recruitment process. These tools assist with tasks such as resume screening, drafting preliminary job descriptions, generating initial interview questions, transcription and occasionally sourcing prospective candidates. However, AI is never used to make final hiring decisions;
our use of AI serves tosupport repetitive and administrative tasks in order to streamline our hiring and recruitment workflows. We are committed to the responsible use of AI in our hiring practices, prioritizing both an improved candidate experience and operational efficiency. Our standardized hiring practices remain focused on reducing biases, with all key hiring decisions solely made by our team. We continuously review and refine our hiring practices to align with industry best practices and evolving legal guidelines
AI Usage in Interviews
The Loopio interview process is designed to help us better understand your professional experiences, as well as your unique perspective and approach to delivery and collaboration. To ensure a fair and accurate assessment, we expect candidates to refrain from using AI‑generated content to produce responses to our interview questions during the live interview, as our goal is to evaluate your own knowledge and problem‑solving abilities - not those of an AI assistant. If AI‑generated responses are identified during the interview, Loopio reserves the right to disqualify candidates from the interview process.
For specific roles that include a take‑home assignment, our AI Interviewee Policy allows the use of AI for initial support;
however, the final submission must be a true reflection of your personal insights, skills and decision‑making.

all
backgrounds and lifestyles to consider us as a future employer. Please contact a member of our Talent Experience team (View email address on ca.hrm.tc) should you require accommodations at any point during our virtual interview processes.
