Multiverse team up with AdeptID to utilize machine learning for equitable talent matching

Today we’re delighted to announce a new partnership with AdeptID, the leading provider of talent matching software for the workforce without college degrees. Together we’ll use their machine learning models to scale up and optimize our processes for matching apprentices with employers.

At Multiverse, we’re obsessed by two things: equitable hiring and data-driven decision making. They are essential to delivering our mission of creating a diverse group of future leaders and this new partnership will help us make progress on both of them.

We fundamentally believe there is no link between academic achievement and job performance. In the US, degree requirements in job ads screen out 67% of black Americans and 79% of Hispanic Americans. Talent is everywhere but opportunity often is not.

Our belief has always been that the things that actually correlate to job performance are around character, grit, conscientiousness and willingness to learn. Too often grades are a function of how good someone’s school was rather than their actual potential.

We built our model of matching apprentices to employers to include that more inclusive definition of potential. Our work with 

 will help us to put new layers of data analysis behind the model.

So far we’ve placed thousands of apprentices in their first roles. They are hugely talented, and come from a 

. Getting to tens of thousands, and eventually hundreds of thousands, will require a larger scale. AdeptID’s technology helps us set up a “feedback loop” so that we are continuously learning from these placement outcomes to make better recommendations.

The team at AdeptID brings a rigorous and responsible approach to machine learning to help identify talent in those without college degrees. Most importantly, they align totally to our mission. Learn more about their approach here.

We’re excited for what we get to do together.

Fujitsu identified the need for employees across the business to increase their expertise in data to prepare the organisation for the future of work.

Only 17% of people in the UK tech sector are female. The challenge of creating better access for women of all ages and backgrounds in tech jobs has resulted in a lack of female tech leaders in the majority of UK businesses. In 2016, KPMG launched a programme to make a positive change in diversifying their workforce. They teamed up with Multiverse to provide exciting development opportunities in data and tech to provide a route to the top for talented women in their organisation.

There are few opportunities bigger than that posed by digital transformation and access to Big Data. But while business leaders globally are 

, there is a lack of data skills within the workforce that can impact the return on these investments. Business teams often struggle to make decisions without access to their data or ability to draw insights from it without the support of centralised data teams, but internal data experts are stretched out.

The speed with which the pandemic roared through the UK and the rest of the world left leaders forced to change how they work. They have to move quickly to make critical decisions and implement massive organisational changes in an attempt to stay afloat. But with no visible timelines for when this will end, businesses need to set themselves up so they can move readily when the time presents itself.
