Our Recommendation

Both Tools Require Compliance Attention

Greenhouse has a lower compliance burden, but both tools require attention to AI hiring regulations depending on how you use them.

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
