Artificial Intelligence And Its Candidate Matching

Artificial Intelligence has changed our world, it has increased the pace in which candidates find a job. It has also helped recruiters find stability in the organization. Often we hear job seekers say that finding a job itself is a job in itself. Candidates take their own time and use it to polish their application, documents, etc.

Recruiters are finding Candidates Faster:

Recruiters and HR teams have now found it easier to contact and hire the right and perfect candidate. It would be perfect if the candidate got an automatic recommendation for the role he/she has applied for. It is a dream of organizations to find the right employee and candidate as soon as possible. But they struggle to do so and end up with a lot of irrelevant applications. Employers are struggling to fill the open jobs that they have and are not able to find the skills they need. In a recent report, researchers have said that companies have not been able to fill the 45% of vacancies that are available in the company.

 

AI the Future of Hiring:

It is a known fact that Artificial Intelligence is fast changing the way humans look at anything. AI is helping various organizations in their recruiting. An AI from TalentAdore has created an Artificially Intelligent Recommendation Engine. It enables the recruiters to match candidates to available positions. It is a tool that is designed to provide the recruitment staff at an organization. The HR team has the power to make a recruitment process more efficient and objective. LinkedIn also follows the deep data extraction process to list job vacancies according to the wishes of the candidate. 52% of talent acquisition leaders have said that for them the hardest part is screening candidates from a large pool of applicants. This process is tedious and is time-consuming in many ways. AI has helped match that and can give the recruiters a better analyzed and smoother way of screening candidates.
