I already have enough difficulty winning over the hearts of human employers, but now I have to win over the mechanical heart of AI hiring technology? Despite this, I am less skeptical about them being used now than I would have been if someone had suggested it, say, 10 years ago. Technology has improved tenfold and it’s clear that the technicians have considered how to make these AI machines more realistic. It will be interesting to see if they catch up, which eliminates the need for physical hiring staff, but especially in the U.S., I think it would make people very upset. People in the States need to feel like they’re special and unique, not just one in a billion. If AI machines are used it considers people using algorithms which erases some more personable traits of people themselves. It will be interesting to see how this technology is adapted and improved upon.
I often find myself against artificial intelligence being used within the development of the person's relationship and communication. However, I do not feel that strange towards AI being used in hiring. As a university student, no matter how companies hire employees, the only thing I can do is to do my best to gain knowledge, to improve hard and soft skills, and to attractively present myself. I even feel relieved, hoping that there will be less employment through personal connections. There are thousands of tips for in-person job interview given by seniors. Soon there will be tons of tips for A.I. interview just like this article. There might be A.I. service for one to beat A.I. in landing job. Again, as a future employer, I don’t see a huge difference in tasks. On the other hand, I might feel slightly different as an employee. If I were a hiring manager, especially of a company which take only few new employers every year, do I trust AI enough to make the decision? I don’t know.
