Last week, I was fortunate to be part of a panel discussion that was conducted by Rezoomex around this topic. At first, I too was taken aback by the topic, but then I did settle down and started to do research on this topic. The 1st thing that I did was to ask this question to my hiring community and candidates in my network. The reason was to know their views as it helps you to understand the pulse of the audience.
This is in continuation to my earlier article Artificial Intelligence, hiring & you.
After putting so much effort in calculating the Suitability Score, we later realized that it is just a part of the entire gamut of improved and cost-effective hiring. Also, we observed that candidates are very smart when it comes to writing their resumes. Sometimes, they even use paid services to create an impressive resume. Just calculating their suitability score based on the information provided in the resume wouldnât be a complete solution.

Recently, I read an article. The author of this article, Recruitment industry will DIE in 2018, threw some light on how Machine Learning is picking up and thus, how many organizations are opting to use it to make their hiring seamless.

Sometime back I was reading through an interview of an entrepreneur (who has set up four successful startups in a short span) about the challenges faced in startups in one of the leading dailies. And the biggest challenge that has come out to be is the unavailability of the right resources for the startups. I have to agree with it because if you check with the startups 90 out of 100 startups would agree with the same that they are unable to reach out to the right candidates as the need for the startups is slightly different than that of a regular settled company.
