PepsiCo Wants Robots To Conduct Their Interviews
A growing number of companies today are turning to AI to help them make decisions about who to hire, give a bonus to, and even let go from a company altogether.
One Russian startup created artificial intelligence software known as Robot Vera, to help them decide who to hire for employment contracts with companies such as Ikea, PepsiCo, and L'Oreal.
In only 9 hours, it's estimated that it can interview at least 1,500 candidates.
With the help of this software, HR staff are able to remain engaged in other important tasks; supporting management team members, providing training, conducting assessments, and more.
Would you want to be interviewed by a robot or a human?
Employers have suggested that they are seeing the same success rate with Vera, from doing cold calls, that they would have seen if humans were the ones conducting the calls. And Vera can make thousands of calls at one time, completing those calls much quicker.
There are now said to be hundreds of companies in Russia that have started using this sort of technology to help them decide who to hire and fire etc. As well, the software has also allegedly been tested in places like Dubai and Singapore.
Whether it's conducting phone interviews, making cold calls, analyzing video interviews, sifting through resumes, the technology is able to save recruitment managers time in a variety of ways.
Also, the Russian startup isn't the only agency that has sought to use artificial intelligence as a part of their recruitment process and it's likely to become much more prevalent in the near future if a growing number of employers find that it provides them with any benefit.

Employers Turning To AI For Hiring, Firing, And More

I think robots in business is a good idea but not in taking over jobs itself , human labor is the best in day to day activities as well
How can this possibly go wrong?
I usually link these posts to @evileddy and he says, "See?!? I told you!" as he has been insistent that computers will take over everyone's job. He also refuses to call it AI if it cannot become sentient and self-aware. Just a learning algorithm.
I suppose some of the sheer numbers initial tasks can be automated and have the final results vetted by a qualified human but wonder what the experience would be like and whether the real allstars would join a company if the leaders didn't even take the time to get involved personally?
Interesting.
i am preffer to human for interview, because diffrent peoples contain diffrient abilities.
Human find these abilities, but a robot cannot find it. Robot preffer on only questioning, that save in his memory. But human contain natural abilities.
So this cause, i preffer the human interview.
very nice post, Thanks for sharing and i hope you will share more posts like this in future.
Thanks for your useful post.
business is man power on heir life development one chance the technology business is very turning point of the man
Very elegant way to present you, The truth is in all your words.
It is possible to get many useful examples from your writing. well done and keep it up.
I had only one interview in my life and I will never do it again, so for me, it doesn't matter! Thanks for the news!
Wow! I didn't know that in my country came up with this. Although, I think this may help some people who are too nervous before the interview. It would be easier for me to communicate with a robot that does not evaluate my appearance, does not experience subjectivity, but really evaluates my business qualities. I think this is a good trend.
The problem here isn't that the expert system isn't capable of weeding through statistics, it is that people are trained not to judge. And, if you can't judge, then you can't make good calls about business interactions.
Long ago IQ tests were outlawed from hiring practices.
And IQ is the single best indicator about how well someone will do.
Soooo, you get a computer to give a questionaire that measures general IQ levels and attributes on the big 5.
And, all of this is inside a black box. It is a computer program. It doesn't have biases, so it won't play favorites. And thus, it gets around the legalities when hiring. Humans could do this just fine, if they weren't hamstrung by legal issues.
So, if Pepsi wanted bottling line workers, they want people with an IQ between 85 and 100 who are high in conscientiousness. Any person fitting that criteria will do well in those positions. Too high of IQ and the person would be board. Too low and they aren't trainable. Too low in conscientiousness and they wont be attentive to the process.
The computer does what the person cannot.
It is a sad world we live in.
i like & love on your post
