Genetic Testing for Recruitment and Talent Acquisition
Abstract
Genetic testing in recruitment and talent acquisition has ignited substantial discourse among scientists, ethicists, and policymakers. This chapter offers a comprehensive analysis of its current landscape, detailing both advantages and drawbacks. Beginning with an exploration of the Human Genome Project's inception in 1988 and its dual focus on scientific advancement and ethical implications, the discussion delves into the process of genetic testing, which examines an individual's DNA for variations or mutations. The chapter aims to evaluate genetic testing's potential in identifying top talent, alongside ethical considerations like privacy and discrimination. It concludes that while genetic testing may illuminate valuable traits, such as cognitive abilities, its integration into hiring practices necessitates careful regulation to ensure fairness and respect for privacy rights. Ongoing research and policy development are crucial to navigating these complexities responsibly.
