Jobsuche: Würden Sie ein Bewerbungsgespräch mit einem Roboter führen?
Interviews mit KI-Recruitern sollen Bewerbungsprozesse schneller und fairer machen. Für Unternehmer erweist sich das als durchaus hilfreich. Aber wie ist es für die Bewerber am Bildschirm?
Düsseldorf - Felix Müller recently participated in an online interview for a position with a Swedish food company, but instead of speaking with a real person, he conversed with a virtual recruiter. The avatar conducted "standard questions" such as "What are your strengths and weaknesses?" and "Where do you see yourself in five years?"
The avatar's mouth moved as it spoke, but it lacked authenticity, according to Müller. This experience is becoming increasingly common as first German companies also employ AI recruiters for initial interviews with candidates. The advantages for companies include the ability to interview hundreds of applicants simultaneously at any time of day, as AI recruiters never tire, get sick, sleep, or speak multiple languages fluently.
This technology helps them filter out a large number of applicants, saving the personnel manager time and money. However, the question arises as to how job seekers feel when their first contact with a company is not with a human, potentially discouraging the most qualified candidates. Ultimately, do companies invest in efficiency at the cost of their reputation?
