    Where's the Creativity in AI Recruiting?

    In this episode, hosts Andrew Gadomski and Jason Roberts dive into the current state of AI in recruitment, discussing its limitations and potential. They explore why most AI solutions today lack true creativity and are merely automating repetitive tasks rather than bringing innovative solutions to the table. Key topics include the challenges of end-to-end automation in recruitment, the inefficiencies in candidate scheduling and follow-up, and the increasing problem of fraudulent applications. They also discuss the need for integrated workforce planning with AI, and the future of recruiting technology that could better filter and pre-screen candidates, possibly leading to agents interacting with candidates' own AI agents for a more streamlined hiring process. The episode concludes with a look at the importance of staying practical and user-friendly in implementing new AI technologies. 00:00 Introduction and Hosts 00:25 Today's Topic: Creativity in AI 01:03 Challenges in AI Recruitment 02:31 Scheduling and Automation Issues 04:04 New Communication Trends 05:10 K-Pop and Personal Anecdotes 07:26 Candidate Experience and Transparency 10:00 Fraudulent Applicants and Security 19:24 Workforce Planning and AI 21:47 Challenges in Position Management 22:02 The Role of IO Psychology in Recruitment 23:01 AI in Workforce Planning 24:25 Apple's Approach to AI 26:08 The Inefficiency of Chatbots 26:59 Employment Branding vs. Practical Recruitment 29:01 The Reality of Job Applications 31:58 Filtering Candidates with AI 35:48 Future of Recruitment Technology 43:04 Concluding Thoughts on Recruitment
