Do you need Recruiters anymore? Here’s why you do..
There is huge hype created by the so-called AI Recruiting Platform/Machine learning based product people in HR Tech; that their highly intelligent solutions will displace the entire Recruiter community from the face of this planet….It’s only a hype…and is far from reality.
In fact, we predict that 10 years from now, everybody will crave for human touch. Human element will be premium and recruitment will still be done by recruiters.
Some of the customers we are interacting with who, took high bets on the Artificial Intelligence bandwagon are seeing declining adoption and trust in the solution by the actual users (recruiters). Because all the Artificial Intelligence machine does is predict on the basis of textual content and interactions of the candidates on their social media channels. When the AI machine throws the top list of ‘matched’ candidates, seldom do Recruiters find them matching after they speak to them. Mind you hiring is not only about matching but about budget, personality characteristics, availability, flexibility, confidence, attitude, values, culture, etc. All these can be best judged by asking interlinked assessment questions that only a recruiter can do.
There is however a huge value being seen from solutions that automate cumbersome, painful, repetitive and unpredictable tasks within the hiring cycle. Recruiters love such solutions because it makes their lives much more stress-free. Imagine if there was simple-to-use AI recruiting platform for automation in making Candidate Cold Calls, Confirming people for Interviews, Scheduling & Following up for Interviews, Asking basic filtering YES/No questions; wouldn’t the life of a recruiter be more productive; which is Made for Recruiters by the Recruiters, making recruiters feel great about themselves!
There is! When most customers want AI in Recruitment solution, they actually mean ‘All Inclusive’!!!
