This National Science Foundation (NSF) grant under the Engineering (CFDA 47.041) program provides $495,033 to William Marsh Rice University to support the TRAPEZE project, which focuses on empowering human resources (HR) specialists in the technology and retail industries to better leverage automated decision systems (ADS) for talent acquisition. The project aims to develop a human-in-the-loop framework, training materials, and open-source software to help HR specialists reason about, validate, and influence the ADS-assisted hiring process. This will improve the transparency, accountability, and fairness of ADS-driven hiring decisions, ultimately benefitting job seekers and employers alike. The project will run from September 1, 2023, to August 31, 2027.
