AI führt jetzt Vorstellungsgespräche durch – aber Kandidaten sagen, dass sie lieber arbeitslos bleiben, als mit einem anderen Roboter zu sprechen – Arbeitssuchenden sagen, dass sie das Glück haben, dass sie sich direkt weigerten, KI -Interviews zu führen, und sie entmenschlichend und eine rote Fahne für schlechte Unternehmenskultur nennen.

AI is replacing human hiring managers in job interviews—and candidates are pushing back. Despite being unemployed, professionals told Fortune they’re refusing to take calls with bots, calling it an “added indignity” and a red flag for company culture. Still, stretched-thin HR teams say it’s the only way to handle thousands of applicants.
Depends on the job. I got interviewed by an AI for a remote gig working with AI. Totally fine with it. I guess the question is — what’s a better first filter? An overworked human looking over your resume? Or an AI?
I actually don’t know. I guess the latter does take more time from the applier, so that’s kinda lame
I think the place for AI would be in recruiting, not interviewing. Have AI scroll through thousands of potential applicants before they even apply is a thankless job that could use the efficiency of a computer.
Then have the hiring manager conduct interviews.
And people are correct to refuse.
Ai serves people, not allowed to judge them (in direct confrontation).
Human resources or ceos thinking to get away with this approach should be convicted for violating human rights.
No man shall be judged by an autonomous machine nor any machine whatsoever!
I wonder what would the position of HR/Companies would be if applicants used a Al agent to interview for them.
Imagine using an AI to talk to the AI interviewer on you behalf
Ya some Indian agency tried to pull this stunt. I wouldn’t have none of this.
At the end of the day AI should be used as a tool and in my opinion the cut off line of there usage is being an,e to make the final decision on things. If you are giving them the right to decide who is hired, it probably is reasonable to give them that same decision making right for who should be fired all the way up to the ceo. If as a company your not comfortable for both to be controlled,then it makes sense not to use it for such a task, since both firing and hiring are part of the process of keeping the best talent around.
Don’t refuse to do AI interviews, do them, but make up a bunch of random nonsense shit instead.
„What makes you feel you’re qualified to work as a systems engineer?“
„Well I have 420 PHD’s in systems engineering and 69000 years experience“
It isn’t the ai I would have an issue with. It is that HR were let anywhere near it.
And let’s keep it the fuck up. Power to the people. This is quite literally what enacts change is mass exodus and movement upon the convergence of ideas and minds alike
A lot of people forget that an interview is a 2 way process.
Both the candidates and the company use the interviews as an opportunity to learn if they are the right fit for each other. Companies who deploy AI to do interviews make it a 1 way process and blocks the candidate from learning more about the company.
This is bad because it shows a disinterest in getting to know a potential new hire; which is kinda a fundamental thing I think.
100% correct, if that’s how much a company values your time, you shouldn’t do it.
I applied to some entry level jobs recently at major corporations that I am going to model my small business after to gain free/paid inside industry training.
One of the major players was adamant on a AI/video screened interview even though I was way overqualified. We unfortunately already dehumanize our entry level workers but this was a new level of disgust for me.
I always felt no matter how good or bad a job interview is going in terms of your feelings about the company it’s best to always stay positive and try your best.
I would prefer to leave the choice of accepting or not in my own hands. If you get bad vibes and cut it short or are too honest about any negative thoughts you have then handed the decision to someone else.
Most of the time it’s better to have the option to accept a meh job than no job at all.
