Performing or reviewing an impact assessment: Before go-live, which activity most directly evaluates the
A high-impact hiring use calls for performing or reviewing an impact assessment, which evaluates the potential harms of the selected system before go-live.
The question
A deployer has selected an AI tool that will help decide which applicants advance in hiring, a use likely to significantly affect individuals. Before go-live, which activity most directly evaluates the potential harms of this specific system?

- Scheduling continuous accuracy monitoring after the tool is in productionA necessary ongoing control, but monitoring occurs after go-live and does not evaluate harms before deployment.
- Reviewing indemnification and liability caps in the vendor agreementA relevant due-diligence step, yet contract review addresses commercial risk, not the system's impact on applicants.
- Drafting an external communication plan for notifying rejected applicantsA useful governance artifact, but communication planning does not itself assess the potential harms of the system.
- Performing or reviewing an impact assessment on the selected AI system ✓An impact assessment systematically evaluates harms to affected individuals for the chosen system, which the significant-effect hiring use demands.
The trap
Substituting post-deployment monitoring for the pre-deployment impact assessment that a significant-effect use requires. How to remember it
