THE USE OF ARTIFICIAL INTELLIGENCE IN RECRUITMENT AND SELECTION PROCESSES. EVIDENCE FROM CORPORATE RECRUITERS
Abstract
Globalization and the evolution of technology have put a lot of pressure on organizations to reshape and update themselves, and there is an upward trend in terms of organizations adapting to technology, especially the use of Artificial Intelligence (AI) in business. Currently, a recruitment process is largely carried out by recruiters who review CVs, online profiles and other sources to find suitable candidates for vacancies. Because employees have limited skills, keeping up with all the necessary tasks is not an easy job and usually time-consuming for each recruiter. In Romania, AI represents an opportunity that will certainly help the country's economic development. Although Romania does not have an official plan to use this technology, its implementation in the public sector has been put on the agenda of a newly established institution - the Authority for the Digitization of Romania. This paper presents the relationship between AI and recruitment and selection processes. Moreover, a view of recruiters from a multinational company in Romania will be presented, describing their different perspectives on AI adoption, future and risk associated with AI in recruitment. This paper aims to investigate how AI is implemented in the traditional recruitment process and what would be the implications of having AI in recruiting many candidates.
