Why do professionals who add ex-McKinsey to their LinkedIn tagline get hired more? And why does physical attractiveness influence the likelihood of being hired? It all comes down to the Halo & Horns effect. In this episode Charlotte Melkert (CEO at Equalture) talks to Leonie Grandpierre (Head of Science at Equalture) about what the halo & horns effect is, how they are connected, why it has a long history, what makes it so prevalent and how it interacts with other biases in hiring. They also share helpful tips on how to mitigate it in recruitment.
