The study highlights that AI is primarily used for automating tasks such as sending reminders, tracking application statuses, and scheduling interviews.

While 37% of recruiters express optimism about AI's potential to enhance their work, there remains uncertainty about its long-term impact, with mixed feelings about whether it simplifies or complicates their roles.
