Let's get started.
Long gone are the days ofmanual resume scanning.
Today, forward-thinkingorganizations are leveraging AI
to automate tasks, streamlineworkflows and enhance candidate
experiences.
Let's explore how artificialintelligence is transforming the
recruitment landscape.

(00:44):
In an intensely competitive jobmarket, every minute counts.
Ai-powered recruitment toolshelp recruiters work efficiently
, accelerating the hiringprocess and beating competitors
to top talent.
According to a 2023 McKinseyGlobal Survey, a third of
organizations now regularly useAI in business functions just

(01:04):
one year after its debut.
So what exactly is AI?
Artificial intelligence is amachine's ability to replicate
certain cognitive tasks.
The broad term encompasses manytypes of AI, such as generative
AI, machine learning andnatural language processing.
Machine learning is when AIidentifies patterns and learns

(01:25):
from processing massive amountsof data.
This enables an AI program likea bot, to understand job
requirements, scan profiles andsend the top candidate
recommendations to recruiters.
Generative AI, like ChatGPT,for example, generates new data
based on patterns it learns.
Recruiters use generative AI topower chatbots and streamline

(01:49):
candidate communications.
On the other hand, naturallanguage processing is when AI
processes and understands humanlanguage.
This enables an AI program toanalyze text, recognize speech,
translate languages and generatehuman-like responses.
For example, an NLP system canread and summarize documents,

(02:11):
extract relevant informationfrom emails or interact with
users in natural conversationallanguage, all rapidly and
automatically.
So how is artificialintelligence used in recruitment
?
There are a variety of ways itcan be integrated into the
recruitment process to enhanceoutcome.
Let's start with candidatesourcing.

(02:31):
Ai, with its round-the-clockavailability, can efficiently
search for and identifyqualified candidates online.
You can also initiateconnections with candidates
automatically through emails,notifications and chatbot
conversations, empoweringrecruiters with its efficiency.
When it comes to screening,artificial intelligence can

(02:53):
quickly review many resumes andpinpoint talent with the desired
job skills, qualifications andexperience to match an
employer's job opening.
It can also be programmed toflag undesirable candidate
traits, helping recruiters makequick decisions.
Recruiters can also useartificial intelligence to
process and analyze applicantdata, such as information it

(03:16):
gathers from social mediaprofiles.
With this data, it can predictif a candidate will be a good
match for a particular role,based on what it knows about an
organization's job requirement.
Another way to use artificialintelligence is for automated
communications From writingdetailed job descriptions to
answering candidate questionsvia chatbot, it simplifies and

(03:37):
expedites communications.
It also gives recruiters moretime to focus on tasks exclusive
to human capabilities, likeconnecting with candidates on a
personal level.
Now let's talk about some of thebenefits of using AI in the
recruitment process.
Ai-powered recruitmenttechnology can transform and

(03:58):
improve an organization'srecruitment process.
For starters, artificialintelligence can reduce
administrative workload.
With AI, recruiters don't haveto spend hours manually
searching for qualifiedcandidates or setting up
interviews.
It can immediately completerepetitive administrative tasks,
reducing an organization'sadministrative burden.

(04:19):
Artificial intelligence canalso accelerate the recruitment
process.
It can source and screencandidates using specific custom
parameters around the clock,facilitating a speedy hiring
process.
It efficiently narrowscandidate options, so hiring
teams can make decisions fastand decrease time.
Another benefit is that AI canhelp avoid making a bad hire.

(04:43):
With its ability to quickly andaccurately match candidates to
job requirements, it reduces thelikelihood of bad hires and
saves an organization from theconsequences.
So does the human element stillmatter Absolutely?
Although artificialintelligence excels at
completing repetitive tasks,humans are still needed to build

(05:04):
relationships, understandnuances and make final decisions
.
Artificial intelligence doesnot grasp important concepts
like morality or ethics in thesame way a human does, nor does
it have empathy to detectnuanced interpersonal skills
required to identify avalue-aligned candidate.
So, while it enhancesrecruitment, people are still

(05:27):
needed throughout the process,using skills and perspectives
that only humans possess.
An optimal recruitment processblends sophisticated technology
like AI-powered tools, withhuman expertise.
It's important to remember thatartificial intelligence is still
new and evolving, soorganizations should keep a
close eye on advancements andimplement processes to safeguard

(05:49):
their data and privacy.
Artificial intelligence andrecruitment can be a game
changer for organizations.
A tech savvy recruitmentpartner like Human can help you
choose the right tools andleverage AI to its fullest
potential.
