Enhancing Fairness in HR Recruitment: A Hybrid AI-DSS Model vs. Traditional Methods Evaluated with DIR and EOD Metrics for Effective Recruitment
Bibliographic record
Abstract
The implementation of Artificial Intelligence-based Decision Support Systems (AI-DSS) in recruitment has significantly enhanced efficiency; however, concerns regarding algorithmic bias persist. Existing AI-DSS models primarily emphasize explicit data, often neglecting psychological and behavioral factors essential for fair recruitment. This study integrates Person-Job Fit and Person-Organization Fit theories into AI-DSS while employing adaptive learning techniques to mitigate bias. Using a mixed- methods approach with an explanatory sequential design, this research combines quantitative analysis (statistical comparisons of AI-DSS and traditional hiring methods, bias evaluation using fairness metrics) with qualitative insights (interviews with HR professionals and candidates). The findings indicate that AI-DSS improves selection efficiency and candidate performance yet remains susceptible to biases derived from historical data. Adaptive learning enhances fairness; however, ethical concerns about transparency and accountability persist. This research strengthens the AI recruitment debate by suggesting a comprehensive model that balances the operational efficiency, ethical needs, and fair practices. Explaining AI paradigms requires additional research to establish trust and flexibility for AI recruitment systems.

Full frame machine prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one source (direct Gemma or distilled Codex), not a consensus.
