The increase of AI and automation in recruitment
The focus on automation has actually appeared in the past years, and truly so. Recruitment innovation is more available, accessible and versatile than ever.
This year, AI took a substantial step ahead in recruitment and has been integrated into recruitment software application, including Teamdash.

Talent acquisition and recruitment has actually been a relatively early adopter of Artificial Intelligence. AI helps recruiters to work smarter, not harder, automate repetitive tasks, make it faster and simpler to source prospects, compose job ads, launch employer branding projects, and engage with prospects, to name just a few. AI continues to develop and automate daily tasks. Recruiters may have the ability to take a great deal of recurring things off their plates and concentrate on the more human elements of recruiting.

I began using several AI-powered tools in recruitment, always ensuring ethical practices, naturally. Learning the essential prompts not only made my task simpler, however also proved exceptionally fascinating. Embracing ethical AI tools completely transformed my technique to recruitment: Automated Resume Screening: promptly matching candidate credentials with task requirements. Chatbot assistance: guides prospects, answers FAQs, and schedules interviews seamlessly.
In 2023, we experienced the growth of the requirement to headhunt skills instead of fill the roles of actively applying people. At the exact same time, the increased circulation of applying candidates appeared like a positive modification, however really, it did more work in terms of the requirement to respond to everybody, assess each profile’s viability to the role and send more rejection emails.
The efficiency boost that the AI and automation tools supplied enabled us to make the process faster and more consistent. We achieved an improvement in the Time to Hire metric and the drop in Voluntary Turnover, and, at the exact same time – an increase in worker NPS.

In 2023 our hiring rate from candidates increased by 25% – to increase working with rates, you require to make sure the very best prospect experience by utilizing automations and AI.
Tools you need for successful recruitment in 2024
Recruiters without updated tools and software application have a clear downside compared to the ones who have actually embraced a thorough tech stack.
All the experts who reacted to our survey pointed out having a good and modern-day ATS as the very first must-have tool in 2024.

I personally think you will fall too far behind the curve if you do not make AI work for you. There are still a lot of employers not taking complete benefit of innovation. You do not need to master them all, but get an excellent grounding on prompts and validation as a minimum. AI is as trustworthy as Wikipedia – you require to do the fact-check.

Rethinking and upgrading your company brand name to adjust to the changes
The nature of work and the expectations towards the workplace and company have actually substantially shifted in the previous years. There is also a generational modification in the workforce – Gen Z is going into the workforce as a part of the Boomer generation is retiring.
To keep up and go beyond these expectations and keep hiring and maintaining leading talent, companies have to reconsider their employer brand name and offering. At our end-of-the-year webinar, Kaarel Holm from MeetFrank shared that the Pareto principle applies in their user base – 20% of the very best companies get 80% of the candidates. No employer wishes to miss out on out on hiring the best skill.
To end up being one of the very best, transparency is anticipated throughout all stages of the skill method. This implies leveraging the right technology and tools to support human proficiencies and constructing a strong employer brand name based on them.
Diversity (DEI), versatility, openness and the increase of relatable organisations are the keywords in focus for employer brand names in 2024.
We’ve seen a great deal of modification throughout 2023.
– Firstly, the demand for the office on a flexible basis has picked up. While fully remote and remote-first chances remain dominant among jobseekers, hybrid roles are becoming significantly popular.
Our Q3 Flexible Working Index (a report which tracks developing trends throughout the versatile tasks market) revealed a sharp shift away from remote work among employers – fully remote roles accounted for just 4% of job posts in between July and September, typically.
Meanwhile, jobseekers’ need for remote work remains strong, however our information shows that the more versatility companies use staff around working areas, the more popular they are amongst candidates.
– Secondly, the standard work week has actually significantly developed over the past year.
The timeless Mon-Fri is taking a backseat. More and more companies are introducing an alternative approach, which consists of variations of the 4-day week, the 4.5-day week, and the 9-day fortnight.
Demand for the 4-day work week has skyrocketed, with an average of 47.4% of Flexa users noting it as their favored method of working throughout October. During the exact same duration, 37.5% picked the 4.5-day week as their choice, and employment 14.1% stated the 9-day fortnight was theirs.

Maintaining your company brand whilst recruitment is low is KEY! You need to be constantly sharing things with your audience so when recruitment picks back up you are not basically starting from scratch. Technology will allow you to really make data-driven choices whilst being able to track candidates, elevate your employer branding and master recruitment marketing.
Recruiter skillset in 2024
In the last few years, we have seen a lift in skill- and value-based hiring. Companies are now actively upskilling their existing labor force and hiring brand-new workers to fill the skill gaps.
This also means recruiters should adjust their skills to match the requirements. Recruiters require a mix of exceptional soft skills and tough skills to be successful in 2024 and beyond. An effective employer in 2024 is an excellent communicator and facilitator who understands how to sell the role and the business, deals with data and data to believe tactically, and adapts rapidly to the modifications in the market.
Again, proactively working on developing these skills further and using technology helps remain on top of the recruitment game.
In the past few years, we have seen recruitment ending up being a growing number of tactical and data-driven. HR experts have actually ended up being the leaders of this shift and the brand-new talent strategies.
We more than happy to see that Teamdash users are actively working with the data available for them in the Recruitment performance tab and have actually made checking it a part of their day-to-day regimen. This has assisted them find new methods to enhance the process and automate tiresome jobs, making more time for activities that create value.
The brand-new skillset lines up with the difficulties that 2023 has brought and will continue to 2024.
– We have seen an increase in the number of candidates but still have problems getting adequate qualified candidates;
– We require to cut or handle recruitment expenses to stay on top of the financial situation on the planet;

Integrating Talent Analytics and Talent Intelligence into resource preparation is becoming the standard even before recruitment activities commence.
