Talent Compass: Set Up Custom Greenhouse Demographic Data Surveys for Dashboards & Pipeline Analytics

Overview

This article details the process for setting up Greenhouse Self-ID Forms so that demographic data flows into Gem’s Talent Compass reports (Dashboards Overview & Pipeline Analytics Overview). This results in greater accuracy when assessing the diversity, equity, and inclusion of your hiring pipeline.

When this is configured:

1. Gem will initially use the data available for the candidates who have completed the Greenhouse Self-ID form.
2. For anyone in your pipeline who did not complete the form, Gem will continues to use it’s automated gender and race/ethnicity prediction algorithm.
