The future of recruiting is here. From digitalization to artificial intelligence, we've entered into a new recruiting era. Are you wondering if your recruiting process is keeping up with all these new developments? In this article, we'll go through all of the trending topics in recruiting and give you a few tips on how to implement them into your own process.
The world is becoming increasingly more digital. And alongside of this digitalization, a plethora of new technology has been developed. Recruiting itself has changed drastically in the past 20 years, moving from a paper medium to an almost paperless medium.
But change is not necessarily something to be afraid of, it has also brought a lot of improvements into the field of recruiting. And as it will continue to change and develop, it's always good to look ahead and stay one step ahead of the new trends.
The future of recruiting has a lot of different facets and they are all constantly evolving. We are going to break down the six trending topics we think are going to play an increasingly important role in recruiting. And we’ve included a few tips to help you to get started!
AI is a topic of conversation in the future of almost every field, recruiting included. Chatbots have become a hot topic with many recruiting departments testing them out as a way to interact with potential candidates. Some other aspects of AI are automation and analytics, which we will discuss more specifically below.
Our tip: While AI can absolutely be beneficial to the recruiting process, take the time to assess whether or not a chatbot is necessary in your case.
Automation will continue to shape recruiting, particularly as automation technology continues to develop. Right now, one of the key elements is candidate nurturing via email automation. For example, you can stay in touch with candidates through sending automated nurturing emails, like a welcome email to your talent pool or a monthly newsletter. Or use automated emails to make sure each application receives an immediate response, so that a candidate doesn’t have to worry whether or not you’ve received their documents.
Our tip: Use automation as a way to improve candidate experience throughout the recruiting process.
