imagine trying to hire someone without knowing all of their eye movements during the exam. how could you possibly vet candidates without that information

One of the people that came to talk to our ~Data Science~ meetup was from a company who did analytics like this--basically apply online to a job, it keeps track of everything from keyboard cadence to number of edits and times spent editing each question.

They claimed they did it primarily for general nurses in standard hospitals and they were able to reduce nurse churn (leaving for other hospitals) by a large percentage so if that's the only metric you care about apparently it can work!
