Artificial intelligence (AI) is a groundbreaking, innovative technology that serves several industries. In the staffing industry specifically, AI can be extremely helpful in finding and keeping the perfect candidate and helping to automate the onboarding process. Konrad Konarski, V-Soft's AI and IoT Practice Head, explains the power of AI in staffing in the video above, as well as the summary below.

The Role of AI in the Staffing Industry

Streamlining different processes is a vital aspect of the staffing industry. With the help of AI, recruiting processes can become more efficient and organized, enhancing the way people get hired.

Traditionally in the staffing industry, recruiters search, sort and look through resumes, matching qualifications of applicants with given job descriptions. Rather than completing this task manually, AI can achieve the same results automatically by matching key words and qualities. 

AI in Recruiting can automate:

  • Reading and interpreting resumes
  • Understanding job requirements
  • Matching requirements with the job descriptions

How AI Enhances the Recruiting Experience

Artificial intelligence not only matches key words, but can also match words and sentences with similar meanings to relevant job openings. AI also considers additional data points for the best results.

Additional data can come from various aspects of someone’s personality that can provide more information about a person. This information can be found in social feeds or the job history of an applicant. AI can match those data points to the specific job description and team, ensuring cohesiveness and a solid match for both the candidate and the existing team. AI can appoint the best people into the right jobs so they can work together efficiently.

AI can collect these additional data points and provide great precision. It's critical to map individuals to ideal jobs. This can help them stay positive, productive and effective within their teams.
