In November 2018, O’Melveny rolled out a revolutionary software tool developed by pymetrics, a New York-based company that uses neuroscience and Artificial Intelligence (AI) to help global clients such as Unilever, Accenture, and LinkedIn make their recruitment processes as effective, accurate, and unbiased as possible.
During this webinar, ALFDP Members, Mary Ellen Connerty, Director, Diversity & Engagement and Olivia Blair, Attorney Professional Development and Diversity Manager, will discuss the lessons learned and insight gained during their first full cycle using pymetrics at O’Melveny.
