The latest generation of artificial intelligence tools is already changing the hiring process dramatically, removing friction for candidates and hiring professionals alike.
According to a new survey by Indeed, 87% of human resources and talent acquisition leaders and nearly 70% of job seekers are currently using AI systems and tools for everything from researching companies on the applicant side to drafting job descriptions on the hiring side.
The survey found that the majority of both job seekers and hiring professionals were optimistic that AI tools would free them to focus on the more “human” sides of their work.
But this transformational technology also comes with substantial risks: the risk of bias, job replacement and general fears about machines making decisions without a human in the loop. According to the survey, roughly 70% of job seekers and hiring professionals believe AI tools will benefit corporations by reducing the cost of workers — rather than creating more jobs.
To help organizations and applicants navigate this complex seismic shift, we created "The Indeed Global AI Survey: Your Guide to the Future of Hiring." It includes a close look at a new survey, conducted with more than 7,000 job seekers and HR professionals across seven countries. The survey examines how both groups are currently using AI tools, how they feel about the future of AI in the workplace, what worries them most and what businesses and regulators can do to address those concerns.
This guide is also loaded with tips on how to deploy AI systems responsibly, how to vet AI vendors and how predictive analytics and Indeed’s own job description generator can give busy hiring professionals their time back.
