Our take
The data science and AI sectors are experiencing rapid innovation, and this can make it difficult for businesses to future-proof their data engineering teams. Furthermore, scaling a data team also presents challenges as it can be difficult to find data scientist candidates that meet qualification and diversity standards.
Correlation One provides a recruitment platform for hiring, training and diversifying data scientist teams. It includes tools for targeted recruitment, assessing candidate data literacy, and identifying underrepresented staffing demographics. It also vets candidates for graduating leading courses, diversity programs, dataphons and competitions.
Whilst diversity-focused recruitment platforms will present competition for Correlation One, its unique all-in-one approach helps it stand out. The company claims that it can help its clients future-proof their teams against the rapid growth of data-driven AI, whilst empowering them to optimize staff quality, help underrepresented communities and meet diversity regulations.
