How HR companies use recruitment chatbots

Human resources are key to the running of any business, and the HR department is increasingly looking to technology to make recruitment a fair non-biased procedure, while using bots to help onboard new recruits and to automate many of the simple processes that all workers go through. Using bots and new technology allows HR to focus on driving the business forward through progressive strategies and finding the best people to help. Making the news recently, a Swedish recruitment firm has started using a robot to conduct job interviews, highlighting the rise of AI in recruitment. The technology packed head sits on an office desk and conducts the interviews on behalf of the recruitment agency. This comes as a stark counterpoint to the growing tales of bias, sexism, old-boys networks and other twists that can skew the outcome of a hiring process, leaving the best people for the role far behind.
