The IMPACT OF TECHNOLOGY IN RECRUITMENT PROCESS
Keywords:
Artificial Intelligence, hiring procedures, integration , transformation, effectiveness, implications.Abstract
The integration of technology in the recruitment process has significantly transformed how organizations identify, attract, and hire talent. From the automation of routine tasks to the use of artificial intelligence (AI) for candidate screening, technology has streamlined recruitment, making it more efficient and data-driven. Tools such as Applicant Tracking Systems (ATS) help recruiters manage large volumes of applications, while AI-powered algorithms provide more objective assessments of candidates' skills and fit. Additionally, social media platforms and job portals have expanded the reach of recruiters, enabling them to access a wider pool of candidates globally. Despite its advantages, the use of technology in recruitment also presents challenges. Over-reliance on AI may lead to bias, as algorithms can unintentionally perpetuate existing inequalities in hiring practices. Furthermore, the human element of recruitment may be diminished, potentially overlooking important soft skills and cultural fit. Ethical considerations surrounding data privacy and transparency also come into play as employers leverage data analytics for decision-making.
This abstract explores the dual impact of technology on recruitment, highlighting both its efficiency gains and the associated risks. As technology continues to evolve, companies must balance innovation with fairness and inclusivity in their hiring practices to ensure ethical and effective recruitment outcomes.
