Tech companies have recently come under scrutiny for a lack of diversity in their recruiting processes. According to a recent report from Recode , women hold just 30 percent of leadership roles and less than 27 percent of technical roles—an average based on data from Google, Facebook, Twitter and other top tech companies. As human resources departments work to address this hiring bias—often due to unconscious bias —artificial intelligence recruiting tools seem like a perfect solution.

Currently just 11 percent of American workers get paid family leave either through their employers or state programs, according to the Bureau of Labor Statistics. That's a pretty paltry percentage. The low number reflects the fact that America is the only developed nation that does not require paid leave to new parents, but it also indicates the skepticism of American employers about the business benefits of maternity and paternity leave.
