AI's impact on recruitment (and how HR can respond)

About this episode

This episode discusses the impact of AI on recruitment and how HR can adapt to the changing landscape.

In this special episode of The HR Leader Podcast, produced in partnership with Deel, we explore the shifting hiring landscape in the age of AI, and how employers and HR professionals alike can find and implement efficiencies. Host Jerome Doraisamy speaks with Deel head of talent acquisition Alan Price about how the recruitment landscape has evolved in the last year or so, the significance of such changes and how workplace processes for hiring have shifted, improvements to the candidate experience and aiming to eliminate biases in the hiring process. Price also delves into how recruiters can be empowered in the age of AI rather than being replaced, turning AI into a strategic and competitive advantage, ethical considerations around such platforms, what the future holds for recruitment and HR's role, and how best HR can grasp looming opportunities.
