Are hiring managers
threatened by AI ? Or , could they get empowered by AI ?
Whichever way you look ,
one thing is certain : their job is about to undergo a major change
Why ?
Because , new technologies
described below have potential to synergize !
THE NEW
TECHNOLOGIES
First let us get to know Elias
The robot recognises the pupil’s skill levels and adjusts its
questions accordingly. It also gives feedback to teachers about a student’s possible
problems.
Next, learn how how “ Vera –the – robot “ , is interviewing
blue collar workers , at ,
Robot Vera can cut the time
and cost of recruiting by a third, its creators say. Now they’re teaching it to
recognize anger, pleasure, and disappointment.
A Russian
startup is using Robot Vera, artificial intelligence software designed for
recruiting, to help its 300-odd clients—including PepsiCo, Ikea, and
L’Oréal—fill vacant jobs. (Yes, with humans.)
The Benefit
Vera speeds the vetting of high-turnover service and blue-collar
positions (clerks, waiters, construction workers), cutting the
time and cost of recruitment by as much as a third, according to its creators.
The
software can interview hundreds of applicants simultaneously via video or
voice calls, narrowing the field to the most suitable 10 per cent of
candidates.
Innovators
Vladimir Sveshnikov (28) and
Alexander Uraksin (30), co-founders of Stafory, a 50-person startup in St.
Petersburg
Origin
The
co-founders, with a background in human resources, two years ago found
themselves making hundreds of calls to candidates who’d lost interest in the
given job or couldn’t be located. “We felt like robots ourselves, so we figured
it was better to automate the task,” Uraksin says.
Development
Vera, named after
Sveshnikov’s mother, combines speech recognition technologies from
Google, Amazon.com, Microsoft, and Russia’s Yandex.
Programmers fed 13
billion examples of syntax and speech from TV, Wikipedia, and job
listings to expand the software’s vocabulary and help it speak more
naturally and understand responses.
Deployment
The robot started working in
Russia in December 2016, and Stafory has since added clients in the Middle East
and pilot projects in Europe and the U.S. The company says its revenue will top
$1 million this year.
The Verdict
Human recruiters still vet
the candidates cleared by Vera.
Sveshnikov
and Uraksin are working to teach the bot to recognize anger, pleasure, and
disappointment, but even if it can gauge emotions, Vera shouldn’t be viewed as
a substitute for traditional HR departments, says Mikhail Chernomordikov, a
Microsoft Corp. strategist in Dubai. “Final decisions on hiring,” he says, “are
reserved for humans.”
Now, let us turn to Alexa ,
and wonder :
How long before some smart
Indian Start Up , comes up with a “ Voice App “ which turns on its head , the current role of Alexa to provide answers to questions / commands of the owner ?
How long before you tell
Alexa :
“ Alexa , can you ask me interview questions for the job of a BUSINESS
ANALYST ? “
And , not only will Alexa ,
·
shoot off those questions from its vast
database of Interview Questions
·
listen and record your answers ( “ Speech – to –
Text “ conversion database )
·
tell you your “ Raw Score “ and “ Percentile
Score “
·
advise you of a few , most suitable
job-vacancies ( picked up from job portals ) , based on matching of your “
Skills – Domain Knowledge “ with “ job description “
·
and if you say , “ go ahead and apply “,
also email your resume ( with the score ) to the concerned job-advertiser !
And who knows . how long
before Alexa can turn itself into a “ Candidate Bot “ ( an avatar of the candidate ) and
even appear for that job interview on your behalf !

Building
a voice app is a different ballgame as compared with building a regular Android
or iOS app. A developer needs to build a mental roadmap of how a user could
potentially converse with a voice app.
"There
is no visual element for these ‘skills’. You have to plan the conversation in your head and
translate it into code.
You
have to think of utterances. What is the user going to say?" said
Priyankar Kumar, a third-year computer science student at a private college who
has developed seven app ..
Amazon, globally, has also launched a tool for
developers. "We have a self-explanatory skill-builder tool of sorts. We
launched a new version of it last month. It is as simple as drag and drop. For
example, if you want to build a joke ‘skill’, you can use our templates and
change the content. The entire ‘skill’ gets published in five minutes,"
said Dilip.
And here is how I believe , the above-mentioned
TECHNOLOGIES will redesign Online Recruitment Industry
in next 5 years :
Will Chatbots take away Jobs ? [ 24 June
2017 ]
how an INTERVIEW BOT can replace human
interviewers to interview millions of candidates
Of great
relevance to Indian Railways which just received 300 lakh applications
for 1 lakh vacancies , to be
filled within 6 months .

an online
platform which will allow any Employer / Recruiter to download and install ,
absolutely FREE ,
* a RESUME PARSING
engine ( to convert millions of text resumes into a database )
* a RESUME SEARCH
engine ( to search that
database for best rated candidates )
* a feature
which synchronizes daily , local databases of ALL USERS , so that the local
servers of each user has MILLIONS of parsed
resumes , donated by each user daily !
Through this “ peer – to – peer “ sharing of
resume databases, no employer / recruiter
, will
ever need to subscribe to Naukri – MonsterIndia-TimesJobs – Shine etc !
