Oneisse, CEO of Livingroom, tailors the answer to what literally involves him. For him, AI is “a tool to facilitate the processing of vast amounts of information to extract insights that matter to me.” Even his use is very personal. “I use it on a daily basis. I use it to sift through articles, news, and documents. It helps me cover more ground in less time, stay up to date, and collect all the information I need in one place.” AI saves on budget. But more importantly, it saves on time.
Candidates that work with AI tend to work faster, which means we can get more relevant work done. It’s not necessarily cheaper, as experience with AI comes at a value. Oneisse, however, is nothing but logical. When asked if AI will eventually replace humans in judging a candidate or a CV his answer was a f lat out “no.” He explains, “while AI will help locate keywords or interpret CVs on a technical level, it will not be able to “judge” a good applicant, as it lacks intuition. It takes a human to read a human. Sure, some applicants may write a good CV and talk a good game, but you have to be able to see through all of that to find the potential in people. AI can’t do that.” Of course, since time is money, Oneisse is nothing but practical about it: “AI saves on budget. But more importantly, it saves on time. Candidates that work with AI tend to work faster, which means we can get more relevant work done. It’s not necessarily cheaper, as experience with AI comes at a value.” He is also looking for end results. By that, “the ability to keep the AI “under control” is important, and must be compensated.
Clients and bosses are looking for people who work with such software, but the challenge is to make sure that the output is meaningful and impactful.” The future for Oneisse is clear though. He sincerely believes that “AI will allow HR professionals to work with larger quantities of CVs, which means it will open doors for us to recruit from larger pools of candidates. While AI will grow the number of applicants and CVs reviewed, the future of this profession will rely more on people who can prompt AI to fine-tune its processes, in order to find the more relevant CVs.” What he calls “the needles in the haystack, so to speak.
