But here’s the kicker: this can backfire, leading to bias and even pushing high performers to quit because feedback gets too generic. Plus, women get labeled 'bubbly' while men are 'confident.' Shouldn’t we be hiring for skills, not just who we’d grab lunch with? #WorkplaceBias #HiringTrends #CareerTalk #HRInsights #JobCareer10Share
