Half of job seekers claim that employers' expectations are too high, while over 60 percent recruiters believe that the biggest barrier to the development of companies is currently the lack of necessary competences among employees. On the Polish website No Fluff Jobs, as many as 60 percent job offers this year remained available for more than a month, and 16 percent over two months. To improve recruitment, companies use artificial intelligence solutions.
Unsuccessful recruitment can be very costly – various studies give different estimates, up to 250%. the annual remuneration of a given employee. In addition, finding the right person may take a lot of time – an analysis of job offers published on No Fluff Jobs, a Polish portal with a range of job advertisements, shows that this year about 60 percent advertisements remained published for a period longer than 30 days, and another 16 percent longer than 60 days.
89 percent employers consider saving time to be the greatest advantage of AI tools
What is not visible at first glance, but is a key factor driving recruitment costs, is time. In order to find the right employee, i.e. someone who not only meets our “hard” expectations, but is also willing to work for the proposed wage, employers often need several stages that can take weeks – says Paulina Król, chief people & operations officer at No Fluff Jobs. – The CV analysis itself may take several days. If more than 100 people apply for a given job offer, which is the norm for entry-level positions, it takes time to get through these applications. Similarly, when it comes to screening interviews – they can take up to 2 weeks because the recruiter's calendars need to be matched with all selected candidates. And we haven't even gotten to the interview stage!
Tools using artificial intelligence become the solution. The biggest advantage of using AI is 89%. employers indicate time savings. According to the latest No Fluff Jobs report “Skills on the labor market”, in Poland already 53 percent companies have invested in artificial intelligence training for employees in the last 12 months.
The competence gap is the biggest obstacle to the development of companies
As much as 48 percent professionally active Poles are of the opinion that the current requirements of employers towards job candidates are too high. At the same time, according to a report by the World Economic Forum, 63 percent recruiters indicate that the competence gap (i.e. the lack of people with competences currently or in the future needed on the market) is the greatest barrier to the development of companies. The same report draws attention to the fact that 39 percent current competences of employees will become obsolete in the next 5 years.
Due to this mismatch, recruitment processes take longer because there are fewer advertisements than before and more people apply, including those below or above the required qualifications.. Therefore, there are more CVs to review and more interviews to conduct – says Paulina Król, chief people & operations officer at No Fluff Jobs. – According to our data, already 85 percent employers accept the use of artificial intelligence by job candidates, e.g. for research or preparation for an interview. More and more companies are also learning how to successfully use the benefits of this technology. What is important is that tools based on artificial intelligence actually support the work of real intelligence, i.e. recruiters.
The latest artificial intelligence-based features available on No Fluff Jobs is the Alicja virtual voice assistant, created on the basis of proven ElevenLabs and OpenAI models. Based on the decision from the recruiter, Alicja conducts an initial interview with the candidate. A job candidate can interview at any time convenient for him or her by simply clicking the link in the e-mail invitation. Afterwards, the recruiter receives a summary of the interview along with a transcription and audio recording. Thanks to this, they have broader knowledge about the candidates and can more consciously invite selected people to job interviews.
