From Bots to Best: Hiring through AI and Automation

Despite the available technology, the use of AI and automation was not popular before. Companies continued to rely on traditional methods in hiring talents. Printed resumes and manual scanning were a huge part of HR professionals. Then, the tables have turned. 

The pandemic forced people to stay in their homes and this included businesses that did not operate for necessities at the time. This also highlighted the potential of technology to take over traditional recruitment methods. A lot of companies started using AI and automation for more efficient and effective hiring processes.
