GoDaddy is committed to harnessing the power of artificial intelligence (AI) with a focus on ethical practices and responsible innovation, particularly in our recruiting processes. We recognize the importance of fairness, transparency, and inclusivity in AI-driven talent acquisition, and are dedicated to implementing systems that minimize bias and support equitable opportunities for all candidates. Our approach includes regular audits, ongoing checks, and continuous refinement of our AI tools to ensure they remain effective, unbiased, and aligned with our core values. By maintaining rigorous oversight and adapting to new insights and regulations, GoDaddy strives to create a recruitment environment where AI enhances decision-making while upholding the highest standards of integrity and fairness.
GoDaddy is committed to ensuring that our use of AI in hiring complies with all relevant employment laws and regulations, as well as our internal policies around the acceptable use of AI—including that hiring decisions will always be made by humans.
GoDaddy recognizes that AI tools can be valuable resources for candidates as they prepare for interviews and present their skills. However, our goal is to foster genuine interactions and ensure that candidates are evaluated based on their unique qualifications and abilities. We are committed to making fair, data-driven decisions that are informed by human judgment and insight. By adhering to these principles, we maintain the integrity of our recruiting process while enabling candidates to benefit from the advantages that AI can provide.

How does GoDaddy use AI in our hiring processes?
At GoDaddy, we embrace AI as a tool that supports innovation, creativity, and efficiency, and we use it responsibly and ethically to ensure fairness, transparency, and alignment with core values. Candidate use of AI alone is not grounds for disqualification. Concerns arise when AI use results in misrepresentation or plagiarism related to a candidate’s skills, experience, education, or submitted work, which may impact continued consideration. Candidates must disclose any use of AI tools in the preparation of application materials or during any stage of the interview process to ensure transparency and accurate evaluation.
US candidates may also request reasonable accommodations under the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) including assistance or modifications related to AI use during the interview process. Outside the US similar rules apply and we would normally agree to adapt our recruitment process to allow fair access for those with disabilities. Candidates should make requests for accommodations as soon as feasible in advance of the interview. Such requests should be submitted by the recruiter on behalf of the candidate for review.
GoDaddy’s approach to AI use by candidates is as follows:
