AI is here to solve the résumé crisis. More and more companies have been adopting “smart” platforms that utilize AI to automatically highlight ideal candidates in some way. This intelligent screening software automates the résumé screening process by applying machine learning to the existing résumé database. The software/program will learn which candidates moved on to become successful based on performance, tenure, turnover rates, etc. More importantly, AI can learn what experience, skills, education, and other qualities make for better-qualified candidates and then automatically rank, order, and shortlist them.

A recruitment chatbot is basically an HR manager’s dream assistant! Often, it’s a conversational interface that helps carry out some basic processes using artificial intelligence and machine learning. That means it can be candidate facing, internal, or both! Some common uses for chatbots include collecting basic candidate information, like education or past experience, asking screening questions about candidate qualifications, and then ranking candidates based on those (or other) metrics. They’ll even go so far as to connect worthy candidates with human recruiters and/or set up interviews and meetings between recruiters and candidates.
