Most recruiters are leveraging AI in the wrong way and wonder why candidate experience is getting worse...
Most recruiters are leveraging AI in the wrong way and wonder why candidate experience is getting worse...
Over time, my hires are more or less evenly split between:
- Applications
- Referrals
- Sourced/headhunted.
The real time-killers remain painfully human:
- Reviewing 1000s of applications
- Rallying colleagues for referrals
- Sourcing & engaging passive talent
Once suitable and relevant candidates are in the funnel, they all get pre-screened and interviewed.
I use AI for:
β
Summarising lengthy interview transcripts
β
Sharing job, interview, team & culture details with candidates at scale
β
Analysing my own hiring data
I DO NOT use AI for
β Reviewing or rejecting applications
β Engaging and messaging passive talent
β Conducting actual interviews
AI should elevate my experience as a recruiter, not replace my judgement or ability to interact with candidates.
