Key insights

Candidates are increasingly using AI tools to create CVs, search for job opportunities, and prepare for interviews, making it an integral part of the modern job-seeking process. AI also has the potential to improve diversity in recruitment by removing bias from selection processes and anonymising CVs to ensure fairer evaluations. Human oversight however, remains essential when implementing AI in recruitment, as the technology should enhance processes rather than replace the personal connections that build strong relationships. All this and more is discussed in greater detail in our AI insights guide.
