After a pool of candidates are selected from the applications, blind interviews will be conducted. Only after a job offer is made will the employer and employee meet.

Where physical or skill sets are a criteria, a third party will test the applicants.

This will eliminate any hiring bias. Only the best qualified applicants will be hired based on qualifications not personality or appearances.

Obviously the OP never owned a business or hired many people....you gain so much more information about a candidate when you meet them face to face.

like did they merely test well, or can they actually apply what they learned...how good of a fit are they going to be with the culture of your organization...how good of a match are they for your management style...do they 'get' what the purpose of the role is that you are trying to fill...as well as getting the details behind the accomplishments listed on the resume that only come from a F2F conversation

IMHO what the OP is suggesting is totally unrealistic...
