Many companies believe their interview process works, until bad hires or poor candidate reviews add up. Without structure, interviews are inherently biased, inconsistent, and inefficient. It’s time to challenge common interviewing myths and improve hiring practices.
Interviews are one of the most critical steps in hiring, yet they remain one of the least structured and most misunderstood aspects of talent acquisition.
For most organisations, interviews function as a black box – conducted behind closed doors with little visibility into what questions are asked, how candidates are evaluated, or whether the process is fair.

Will there be enough money in the world to save the planet? The answer to this urgent question is not straightforward.
Big-picture prognosticators name staggering sums needed to finance a greener future—and equally daunting shortfalls in securing them. Investment in the energy transition must more than double to $4.5 trillion annually to reach internationally agreed 2030 emissions targets, according to European financier Allianz. The US-based Boston Consulting Group (BCG) estimates an $18 trillion net-zero “capital gap,” in a late 2023 report.

The rock has hundreds of spherules on it, some of which have tiny pinholes.
NASA's Perseverance rover has encountered another rock on Mars that has left scientists puzzled.
Named "St. Pauls Bay" by the mission team, the Mars rock features hundreds of millimeter-size dark gray spheres, some of which have tiny pinholes. Perseverance discovered this rock on March 11 on the rim of the Jezero Crater, an ancient lakebed that the rover has been exploring since 2021 for signs of past microbial life. Scientists say determining the geological origins of this area's features could provide valuable insights into how rocks in the region evolved over billions of years.

The quest to send humans to Mars is on: US President Donald Trump talked about it in his inauguration speech this year. Such an epic endeavor could help to answer fundamental questions about the Red Planet, including the biggest question of all: Did Mars once host life — and does it still?
Central to those questions is the status of liquid water — the stuff of life — on the planet. It is now indisputable that there was once water flowing on Mars, but how much, and even why, is a matter of debate. More contentious still is whether liquid water may lurk somewhere on Mars even today.

Just before midnight on Friday, 21 March, the Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE) announced in a post on X that NASA had terminated $420 million in “unneeded contracts.” Just what had been eliminated was unclear. But since then, scientists and space policy experts have found evidence for tens of millions of dollars worth of possible cuts, including within programs focused on science, technology, engineering, and math (STEM) outreach and diversity efforts.

Artificial intelligence software is increasingly involved in reviewing papers, provoking interest and unease.
This February, ecologist Timothée Poisot was surprised when he read through the peer reviews of a manuscript he had submitted for publication. One of the referee reports seemed to have been written with, or perhaps entirely by, artificial intelligence (AI). It contained the telltale sentence, “Here is a revised version of your review with improved clarity and structure”, a strong indication that the text was generated by large language models (LLMs).
