Blind hiring

Can blind hiring guarantee fair and effective recruitment?

For recruitment to be truly ethical, should information in a CV, that could trigger bias (conscious or unconscious), be removed? 

Some firms have adopted blind hiring in some form in their early career programme. Names are not disclosed until a certain stage of the interview process and education is not known until a job offer has been made. 

Others use a totally blind recruitment process where even the interviewees voices are marked by special technology and a faceless avatar is used in place of the candidates on screen 

The other argument of course is that it is still important that an employer knows about a candidate's experiences and transferrable skills in order to get the very best match for the company and the candidate's career. 

Many talent consultants believe that it is highly unlikely that a fully diverse workforce would eventually come from the use of blind hiring methods so maybe there is a good balance in there somewhere.
