**Will Your Talent Pass the AI Test?**

Artificial intelligence (AI) promises to reshape entire industries by uncovering untapped opportunities and enabling new business models. But can AI have a similarly transformative impact on how we attract, retain, and develop talent?

**Benefits of AI in Talent Acquisition**

Imagine this: a recruiter based in Shanghai tells me they typically receive 260 new applications for an open position in a large company. The hospitality sector garners more than others; in Manchester, UK, almost 1,000 people applied for a receptionist job in a single day in July 2020!

You can see why there’s rising excitement among recruiters itching to use AI to sift through those applications. Feed the AI 100 resumes, and out pop the top 5 candidates. Or at least that’s the utopian ideal.

In theory, AI could reduce the time to sift through applications and, without bias, identify candidates with the right set of attributes, skills, experience, and qualifications. These candidates could be tested remotely using psychometric tools, games, activities, or simulations that demonstrate their fit for the role. Video interviews of candidates answering a series of questions could be parsed, transcribed, and analyzed for spoken content, nuance, and body language. But, will it accurately grasp the meaning behind the words?

Automated bots, machine learning, or full-blown AI offer the promise of time-saving, unbiased, and more accurate recruitment. Would you use AI to recruit talent for your team? More importantly, would your talent pass the AI test?

**What It’s Like to Be Rejected by a Computer**

Several mid-career professionals, many who have been retrenched thanks to COVID, others at the end of a contract or project or business collapse, find it increasingly challenging to secure suitable employment. Most have at least 100 applications out there, with an average hit rate of 4-5% for landing an interview. Most of those get tested using psychometric or AI-based personality or skill tests.

Then they hear nothing. Silence. A few make it to several rounds of interviews, but often, it ends with a generic rejection letter offering no feedback.

Rejection is tough to bear, whether it comes from a human or a computer. Matthew 7:1 reminds us, “Judge not, that you be not judged” (NKJV). Rejection without feedback or guidance can be a hard pill to swallow. Would you prefer to be rejected by a human or a computer?

**Recruiter or Candidate?**

I have a couple of questions for you:


- Would you use an AI system to recruit for your team?
- Would you like to be a candidate assessed by an AI?

There’s trouble in AI paradise, of course. The system is flawed, and adding AI can sometimes magnify these flaws.

**Trouble in AI Paradise**

I added one word to my LinkedIn profile recently, and suddenly, I had a deluge of "suitable" opportunities. It seems I stumbled upon one of the keywords that LinkedIn uses to match profiles with job openings.

While we may try to optimize our profiles with keywords, it feels a bit like cheating the system. The promise of AI is that a computer isn’t biased, but that’s not always the case. Take Amazon, for example. In 2018, it scrapped its AI recruiting system because it showed bias against female applicants. The system had "taught itself" that male candidates were preferable because they more often had greater tech industry experience.

Significant challenges remain. AI systems must first accurately parse what candidates have said or written. Then, they must detect the meaning embedded in those words—the semantics, nuance, and context. Here, AI systems often fail, while a human would intuitively understand what is meant.

Bias in AI is well known, and it remains the Achilles' heel of talent management solutions that employ AI in any fashion.

**Fix the System and AI Can Add Serious Value**

AI is not the panacea for many of our most challenging talent management problems. It’s impossible for AI to fix the flawed system it models upon. When your LinkedIn profile is a true reflection of your skills and experience—and the recruiter has accurately identified the skills and experience required—then recruitment with AI could be a boon for both recruiter and recruited.

Taking humans out of the hiring process, and focusing on fundamental aptitude versus tacit knowledge, AI can help remove bias across the employee lifecycle—from recruitment through reward, performance, promotion, development, and compensation. AI can guide applicants to positions they're suitably qualified for, ensuring every candidate or employee is hired based on their potential for learning and growth.

**Can AI Identify “Talent”?**

There’s great potential for AI systems to identify true talent and the core values that make for an ideal team member. Talents and strengths, values and attributes can often be uncovered in the stories we tell about ourselves, not in that work of fiction we call a CV. Wisdom and discernment, gained through years of experience, help guide candidates on their best path, ultimately supporting their prospective employers and ensuring that every candidate feels valued and heard.

Can an AI do all that? The only real stumbling block is that AI has no wisdom or discernment. But if we build on good practices, processes, and data, AI can help HR a great deal.


In an era marked by rapid technological advancement, the intersection of artificial intelligence (AI) and the workplace has emerged as a defining feature of modern professional landscapes. As AI systems become increasingly capable of executing tasks traditionally performed by humans, the need to evaluate and enhance individual talents has never been more pressing. This course, "Will Your Talent Pass the AI Test?" aims to equip participants with the insights and tools necessary to navigate an AI-driven world while effectively leveraging their unique human capabilities. Understanding the nuances of AI’s role in various industries, from automation of repetitive tasks to complex data analysis, is crucial for professionals seeking to maintain their relevance and competitive edge.

In recognizing the evolving dynamics between human talent and AI, it is imperative to reflect on what sets individuals apart in an increasingly automated environment. The course emphasizes the importance of identifying and cultivating personal strengths that AI cannot replicate, such as creativity, emotional intelligence, and complex problem-solving skills. By fostering an awareness of one’s unique value and embracing continuous learning, participants will be better positioned to tackle future career challenges. As AI continues to transform job markets and redefine roles, this course provides a comprehensive framework for enhancing professional value and ensuring that individual talents not only withstand the scrutiny of AI but thrive alongside it.
