What is one effect of the anonymous CV model used by the Belgian public sector?

The anonymous CV model used by the Belgian public sector aims to reduce bias in hiring processes by removing identifying information that could lead to discrimination based on gender, ethnicity, or age. By focusing solely on qualifications, skills, and relevant experience, this approach promotes fairness and equality in recruitment. As a result, hiring decisions are made more objectively, based primarily on what candidates can bring to the job. This helps to elevate the importance of merit over personal characteristics or backgrounds, thereby contributing to a workforce that reflects capabilities rather than biases.

The other options suggest aspects that are not emphasized in this model—such as physical appearance, personal interests, or employee retention—which are not primary objectives of anonymous recruitment practices.
