A significant shift in hiring practices is underway, with nearly 70% of employers planning to use AI to screen and reject job candidates without human oversight by 2025. This trend is driven by the increasing reliance on applicant tracking systems (ATS) that scan resumes for specific skills and keywords. The findings from a recent Resume Builder survey highlight the growing role of AI in various stages of the hiring process, including resume reviews and candidate assessments.
While the use of AI in hiring presents efficiency benefits, it raises concerns about bias and discrimination. Many hiring managers acknowledge that AI can produce biased recommendations based on age, gender, and ethnicity, potentially screening out qualified candidates. Job seekers are encouraged to adapt by utilizing AI tools for resume building and interview preparation, as well as leveraging networking to navigate the hidden job market.
