How Artificial Intelligence Will Reshape The Recruitment Process

September 1, 2021

The Added Values of AI

Nobody in the recruitment section appreciates dealing with mundane tasks that bore the heck out of them. The advent of AI or Artificial Intelligence, however, resolves this problem and opens up space for hiring teams to be more productive and goal-oriented.

That being said, the appearance of artificial intelligence and it’s taking over some tasks can end up in some positions dissolving and deemed pointless. Like this, some recruitment teams might have a severance written than in their company file for the future to come. It’s estimated that machines will replace nearly 16% of HR jobs in the next 8 years.

Despite this, the instalment of an efficient artificial intelligence system gives the HR reps to more productively focus on hiring the right person for the job, scroll through even more online resumes and talent groups, and zoom in on the more essential tasks in need of completion. You can check out the article to learn more about "How Technology Is Changing Human Resource Management".

Below, we have shared some common pros of establishing artificial intelligence and the ways it would streamline recruiting processes and bring new blood to the company.

Making Sure of a Best Fit

AI will be capable of covering the gap for an employer by evaluating not just the potent resumes but tracking the candidates' online presence and gathering more accurate information on them, which eventually leads to pinpointing better fits for a position. For example, if a candidate hugely supports online humanitarian movements and any other social causes, artificial intelligence will pick it up and add it to their profile. Potential talents can use AI services to create profiles for themselves where they can showcase their values, goals, skills, inspirations, and motivations.

Skills to Engage With Recruitment Platforms

A spotlight in the revolution created by the AI is its ability to name the skills job-seekers will need to have to be recognized by recruitment platform radars. The artificial intelligence shows them what talents they need to gain on the front end.

For example, machine-based recruiting video interview platforms used psychometric and biometric assessments to measure up not only the quality of the candidates but their pace of speed, verbal tones, voice quality, facial expressions, and body language.

Optimized Online Applications

Recruiter database or the "Applicant Tracking Systems" takes advantage of word flows, keywords, and other primary data points to scan and sometimes categorize tens of thousands of online resumes sent to the system for each vacancy. Interestingly enough, team leaders and CEO’s are not the only big-names using this highly sophisticated technology to get their hands on the best fixes. Recruiting firms and other related organizations also put this advanced tool to enable their job hunters to function more effectively, allowing for more suitable applications to reach through a precise and analytical process.

More Efficient Selection Processes

Time is probably the most missed and valuable paradigm in the traditional handy algorithm of picking out the very best for a job by higher management. It’s next to impossible to find a boss, especially ones who have worked in both the new era and times before that, who can claim to not lose time in sifting through hundreds of resumes and looking at the endless profiles to find the best candidate.

Artificial intelligence, however, gifts the organizations and their heads with a valuable item which is time. Time is the real revolution of the AI in the hiring sector. It can dig through the whole recruitment database for the best matching candidate in a matter of hours, make contact, set up initial interviews, evaluate the resumes, and by presenting the best talents, finishing its magic, and saving a lot of time for the managers.

More Highly Targeted Candidates

The positive impact of artificial intelligence has already taken the hiring processes by storm and shape-shifted the layout of a traditional method to a more modern and efficient way. Not only has it revolutionized everything by connecting more qualified candidates to the right jobs and organizations, but by enabling targeted searches, it has taken everything to the next level. Today, to the courtesy of a groundbreaking AI system, searches by job title, educations, age, background, salary, income, social activities, household status, location, and industry have become standard and on-the-go. Although the use of artificial intelligence confines human interaction and sort of distances the employee from the employer at some stages, still, the benefits of using one outweigh its disadvantages.

The Best Judge of a Character

As technology, and in this time, the pandemic, press forward, more and more organizations and social platforms depend on their home-based teams to accomplish their tasks and keep their wheel going on. The last thing they wish to encounter in these harsh times would be a rogue or responsible employee that threatens the entire projects and throws wrenches in between the wheels. Hopefully, for them, artificial intelligence is once again here to save the day.

AI tools help companies in spotting potential threats even before the work starts. They can tell which one of the remote workers will tell the truth, obey the working ethics, and be a suitable representation of what the company stands for, or not. This ability is critical to the emerging businesses and old ones with broadly distributed networks of the workforce that keep the ball going and everything on the track.

A Level Playing Field

As told by Forbes: “AI will revolutionize how companies screen resumes and candidates in their databases. It will level the playing field, which will require candidates to network more than ever before. To stand out, candidates can no longer rely on a smartly worded resume and a strong pedigree. Building and maintaining authentic, professional relationships will help people stand out and land the interview.”
