Relying On The Web Can Cause Unintentional
Discrimination

According to a study from the JobApp Network a Web-only recruiting services may reduce an employer's likelihood of hiring qualified applicants who aren't as Web-savvy as their counterparts. This practice may adversely impact an employer's efforts to promote diversity, as there are significant differences in the method of applications delivery - phone vs. the Internet - based on minority status. Minorities - including African-Americans, Hispanics, Asian or Pacific Islanders and American Indian or Alaskan natives - have greater access to the telephone than the Internet, the JobApp study revealed.

Caucasians are far more likely to use the Internet to submit their applications than minorities, with 80.9 % of the former group choosing to apply via the Web compared to 58.7 % of the latter group. This unintentional discriminatory hiring practice extended to other groups, as well. For instance, males were somewhat more likely to complete a Web application than females - 71.3 vs. 68 %, respectively. Study data also said younger Americans are more likely to use the Internet than those who are older.
