The brief
The trend began with automated screening systems, which have become commonplace in recruitment. These systems filter candidates based on predefined criteria, often leading to a high volume of perfect resumes that lack human touch. The use of AI in recruitment has evolved to the point where AI systems are now conducting interviews.
According to hcamag.com, AI has been promoted to interviewer status in hiring processes. This shift raises questions about the authenticity and effectiveness of AI-driven interviews. The logical end point of this trend, as noted by WIRED, is a scenario where two bots conduct interviews with each other.
This development underscores the growing integration of AI in the hiring process, potentially changing the landscape of recruitment.
