Key Compliance Considerations
Criteria Corp
- Pre-employment tests are AEDTs
- Personality assessments raise legal questions
- Must validate for job-relatedness
Wonderlic
- Cognitive tests have disparate impact history
- Must demonstrate job-relatedness
- Requires careful validation and monitoring
Our Recommendation
Both Tools Require Compliance Attention
Both Criteria Corp and Wonderlic are high-risk tools under most AI hiring regulations. You'll need bias audits, impact assessments, and comprehensive candidate notifications regardless of which tool you choose.
Key steps for either tool:
- Document how AI influences employment decisions
- Implement candidate notification workflows
- Schedule bias audits if using in NYC
- Complete impact assessments for Colorado compliance
