given the in-person interview is at the end of the funnel by a factor of 500-1000, standardized testing might even open up opportunity for under represented candidates.

Think of how poor the screening process is at the recruiter & CTS (left side) of the funnel, and how many false negatives there are .

If you could offer standardized test at that level, you may be able to keep viable candidates in the funnel longer.
