What's your take on AI-powered HR processes? Would you be okay being interviewed by an AI character?

A video has been going viral showing someone (presumably a fake job applicant) trolling an AI recruitment process.

Burger King is using an AI character for parts of its recruitment process.
From my perspective, , and the character itself looked a little creepy. :D

I'm also noticing a growing number of tools offering AI-powered recruitment calls and interviews.

– If you're building or running such a service, what kind of feedback are you getting from candidates and companies? I remember seeing a few similar product launches here, so I'd love to hear about your experiences.

– And if you are in the position of an applicant, what are your thoughts on this?

AI can make the hiring process faster, but human judgment still matters when evaluating personality, communication, and cultural fit

 The question is how many people are in HR left. I hope they didn't fire everyone.

We cannot be talking to AI interviewers, humans have very limited time. AI doesn't. Otherwise the only solution is to have your AI agent interview for you. Then what's the use?

I recently started looking for work and it is very difficult and time consuming now. I used to send around 100 job applications to get a job 8 years ago (my last job change). I have now sent over 2K job applications with an AI agent just to get 3 interviews.

 I can bet that if you made videos like that one guy and posted on YouTube, you wouldn't have to work :D

I'm not a fan of this. But I'd be interested to hear the views of actual HR folks

 I would like to hear how Burger King sees this :D

I think as annoying as bouncing between calls was before AI, it was better.

Candidates will accept automated assessments such as leetcode without an AI looming overhead.

take home assignments are different now of course.

I think it turns the candidates jaded and the AI has biases that we do not even notice.

Humans can work to overcome our prejudice, an LLM cannot
