I’ve worked in the HR tech space and we integrated with all of the big applicant tracking systems.
Many of them have screening questions. So you can ask something like “can you lift 50 lbs?” And set it up so answering no will screen the candidate out. But even in that case recruiters and hiring managers will usually still look at the candidate anyway.
There are also 3rd party addons that will score candidates, and resume parsers that will let recruiters search resumes for keywords.
But as far as I know there are no widely used AI solutions that will actually flat out reject candidates with no human intervention.
Even if it worked, the risk is too great that your model will start over rejecting people from protected classes and no one will notice until you’re hit with a lawsuit.
- indymike 6y agoMost of the AI I've seen is really just a database query dressed up with a HAL-9000 eyeball camera or something. A good example is a license expiration date. It says it expired four years ago. problem is that candidate data is largely parsed from randomly formatted resume files, so it's not that accurate and as a result, the date from the college graduation ended up in the license field.
