How artificial intelligence can help small businesses to hire faster and smarter – Times of India

Artificial Intelligence is an umbrella term for technologies that mimics human behaviour and can solve problems in a way that was previously impossible. Today AI has left its mark on every industry and has become a valuable tool for recruiters. AI-powered recruiting platforms are already making a huge impact on how small businesses hire and manage their talent. The most impressive part of this technology is that it makes hiring much faster and smarter, allowing small businesses to compete with the big names in ways they never could before.
Companies are now using artificial intelligence in their hiring processes to find the best talent, which helps to gather more information about candidates, which allows the recruiter to make better decisions. 
By using advanced algorithms and machine learning, recruiters can save up to 30% of their time while improving the candidate experience and getting better leaders into positions faster.
AI recruiting tools revolutionizing the hiring process:
Artificial Intelligence has already entered the mainstream in hiring and recruitment industry and has revolutionized hiring industry – gone are the days of exhaustive processes of resume scanning and onboarding. Automated AI-enabled systems can now reject almost 3/4th of all resumes, leaving just the most relevant ones in front of the recruiting team. 
For example, tools that use advanced technologies can determine which hiring methods work best for you, such as where you found your candidates or how you contacted them. Hiring managers can collect data about candidates more effectively by learning more about their work history and determining if they are right for you. These tools use algorithms to determine data points based on responses, making the hiring process faster, less costly, and easier to manage for a large number of candidates. AI recruitment technologies are used by companies at some point throughout the hiring process to assess a candidate’s fitness for a position.
Recruiters and hiring teams can learn more about each candidate. Because hiring managers can use AI to match the skills of all the candidates in a given pool with the skills, they need to do a good job at a given job, which gives the hiring teams the ability to communicate and build relationships with large scale candidates. 
AI’s capacity to use data to standardise fit between candidates’ experience, knowledge, abilities, and job criteria is what makes it so promising for improving recruiting quality. AI may not be able to directly improve culture, but it can be implemented to expand existing work functions, eliminating repetitive tasks and helping employees do their jobs more efficiently. This means that companies can rely on machine learning in some highly specialized enterprises, giving entrepreneurs, SMBs the opportunity to use human resources in other areas and ultimately pave the way for innovation. 
As per one of the surveys from leading recruitment firms, it’s been found that 67% of recruiters are already using some form of artificial intelligence to save time in the hiring process.The data suggests that recruiters might spend up to 22 hours going over resumes to find the right employee, according to a survey done by leading firm.
Artificial intelligence (AI) is revolutionising the employment process by allowing automated search applications to filter through millions of resumes in seconds to find the appropriate employee. AI-assisted resume scanning has become increasingly common in recent years. 
It’s no surprise that over 67% of recruiting managers indicated AI had aided in the simplification of their job operations.While automation may make certain traditional industries obsolete, over 51% of experts believe technology will continue to promote innovative development prospects for additional growth and innovation. AI and machine learning are at the top of many lists of the most important talents required in the professional world today. In the next five years, there is predicted to be a 71% increase in job descriptions that need AI or machine-learning expertise.
Automation makes it possible to see candidates’ profiles at scale, thus reducing the time spent looking at single applications by 300 percent. It also cuts out recruiters’ bias. While AI is already being used by businesses worldwide to help them find the right people, it’s just the beginning of what AI can do.
Conclusion:
Automation has been a part of the hiring process for some time now, but it’s only in recent years that artificial intelligence has made such a significant impact. By leveraging AI to automate various aspects of the hiring process and improve candidate experience, HR professionals have more time to focus on coreresponsibilities. Yes, artificial intelligence and machine learning will eventually take over many tasks currently performed by humans. However, no amount of AI will be able to replace the human judgement necessary in hiring choices. Artificial intelligence, on the other hand, will greatly assist human intelligence in improving recruiting and job search procedures, as well as making the entire process exceedingly fast and efficient. This has resulted in a notable paradigm change in terms of rapid technology stacks and cutting-edge problem resolution across a wide range of industries. Welcome to the Fourth Industrial Revolution!The future of artificial intelligence in business is bright, and will hopefully lead to better hiring practices worldwide.
