How AI can help recruit the best talent

Artificial Intelligence is quickly becoming less a thing of the future and more a necessity of the now within businesses, especially when it comes to recruiting. Every business is fighting to attract the best talent and there are now quite a variety of solutions to help boost your hiring process.

Cleverly engineered virtual assistants that can speed up your hiring process whilst also improving the candidate experience.

It’s vital that your candidate experience is on top form so that they feel a sense of trust whilst also ensuring they feel valued as a candidate. A few excellent software’s to take a look at include Entelo and Olivia.

  • Compatibility testing

For many oversees contractors, video calls are the only way to communicate with potential employers. Thanks to Paññã, an artificial intelligence technical hiring platform, you don’t have to worry about a thing. Paññã is designed to effectively be the interviewer of a video interview, and as part of that, it can monitor things such as whether the candidate continuously looks away from the screen, suggesting they’re using cue cards, as well as being able to act intuitively being able to ask a varied selection of questions and also comes with facial recognition. Simply put, its purpose is to determine whether or not the candidate would be a good match for the company, before the company and candidate even have contact.
