Run a Mock Algorithmic-Discrimination Investigation for a Hiring-Tech Vendor
Overview
What this challenge is about.
You will draft a regulator’s demand letter and a vendor’s bias-audit response, then present a remediation readout. End with a verifiable certificate.
The scenario
The vendor (around 150 staff, around EUR 40 million annual recurring revenue, 70 enterprise clients across France and Germany) is preparing for the AI Regulation's enforcement window and uses internal mock investigations to surface gaps before regulators do.
The Brief
What you'll do, and what you'll demonstrate.
Execute a mock algorithmic-discrimination investigation against an HR-tech vendor and produce a full response package plus exec readout.
Earning criteria — what you'll demonstrate
- Anticipate regulator demands under the EU AI Regulation and non-discrimination law
- Produce the artifacts a high-risk AI vendor must hold ready
- Run a structured incident-style exercise across legal, ML, and product
- Communicate posture and gaps to a C-suite audience
