How Busy HR Teams Can Leverage AI to Free Up Bandwidth
CT Leong: [:Today, I'm gonna cover five uses of AI in HR for mid-size companies. Number one in hiring to be able to generate drafts of job descriptions and job ads.
This takes up typically a lot of time, and sometimes it's difficult to get specialized knowledge in those areas. Using ai, you'll be able to create these drafts and get going a lot faster.
screening. This goes beyond [:Now, this has been around for a while, and what it does is it looks at your best performing candidates. And compares them against the candidate pool that are applying. If you utilize this well, you're then better able to hire people that look a lot more like your highest performing individuals and leaders.
Number three, employee self-service bots. Now, there are a lot of things that you end up having to do in hr. You're wearing multiple hats and. Half of the time you're answering questions from the business around generic HR information, like benefits, policies pay time off remaining and so on.
ass natural language queries [:You don't have to answer an email with a lengthy reply. This can help tremendously.
Use case number four, being able to analyze trends in employee engagement to predict causes of attrition. Now, the rehiring and retraining hamster wheel we've talked about a number of times is problematic. So how do we dig deep into our employee engagement data and have that correlated against things like employee loyalty, productivity, customer satisfaction, or employee retention, and understand what are the key drivers of keeping your employees engaged and having them want to stay with your organization for longer?
This then allows you to make strategic HR decisions to invest in these areas more because you know the return on that investment is going to be there.
The fifth use case [:Is something that is a building block for good performance and continuous improvement. Now, this is difficult to do in the moment, so this is where generative AI can actually help tremendously in crafting that feedback and getting over that initial writer's block for managers, peers, and so on who want to give each other constructive feedback.
Being able to summarize all this feedback at the end of the year when it comes time for performance appraisals. This is something that AI can do as well. And not only would I recommend it, it also helps you to de-bias the process such that you're not caught with recency bias in performance appraisals or halo effects that may happen.
