Recruiter Screening Notes Redaction with anonym.plus

Clear bias remarks and names from recruiter screening notes before handoff.

Recruiter screening notes redaction is the removal of personal data from a sourcer's written record. EEOC and Title VII guidance warns against remarks tied to protected traits. anonym.plus marks names and origin cues on your device, so the fit summary stays while bias signals go.

When this applies

A quick screening jot can capture accent, age, or family status. You trim those entries before the record passes to a hiring manager.

How anonym.plus handles it

  1. Open the file in anonym.plus on your device.
  2. Local OCR reads a scanned notepad page.
  3. The tool flags names and protected-trait remarks.
  4. Confirm each flag and keep the fit summary.
  5. Swap or black out the confirmed remarks.
  6. Save the cleaned record locally.

Limitations & cautions

A casual aside can hint at a protected trait without a flagged keyword. The tool flags named items; read the prose for indirect cues before handing it off.

Frequently asked questions

What should a sourcer avoid recording?

Avoid age, origin, accent, or family remarks. EEOC / Title VII guidance favours job-fit observations only.

Will the fit summary survive?

Yes. Only personal and bias remarks are flagged. Skill and motivation notes stay.

Is the record uploaded?

No. The app is fully offline, so the notes stay on your device.
