Artificial Intelligence (AI) is expected to replace 16% of HR employees over the next 10 years, according to Undercover Recruiter. The goal herein is to apply artificial intelligence to the recruitment role to enhance learning or solve problems as a machine would do. This development will pave the way for simplifying or automating part of the workflow for recruitment, in particular towards the high-frequency repeating tasks. Software, for example, applies machine learning to auto-screen applicants. It may also carry out a sentiment analysis of job descriptions to detect potentially biased language. Although this doesn’t mean you will lack a role immediately, it does mean that the time will be better with the implementation of this technology.
Shannon Katschilo, General Manager At Medallia Canada says, “Artificial Intelligence and Machine Learning applications are essentially the power source behind our insights. As we collect massive datasets, we rely on these and other technologies to uncover trends on scale. Through trend identification, organizations can roll out best practices across their organization according to various subsets of the data. You can learn from one segment of the employee population and scale that across all, or get super detailed based on the demographics of an individual employee from a wider population.”
Overall, recruitment can be made smoother and faster by AI. It will improve the workforce and help everyone to smoothen out everyday working tasks. Allowing AI to help you hire will also allow you the ability to focus more on finding the right worker against the tasks necessary to do so.
Introduction
Artificial intelligence has already taken many roles, but now it is about to take over the job of interpreting resumes and processing the talent pool. The modern-day recruitment strategy is based on the application of artificial intelligence. AI is taking the day-to-day tasks of recruiting and developing talent, such as assessing suitability for jobs, and determining what you really need in the company. In a sense, the recruitment industry is becoming more automated in how decisions are made and implemented.
