And how?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>AI can optimise the start of a recruitment process, for example by automating certain tasks such as screening applicants or sending rejection letters. This frees up recruiters\u2019 time so that they can concentrate on high added-value tasks, such as interviewing. AI is also used to prescreen CVs, by searching for keywords and ranking candidates according to their suitability for the job.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The first limitation of this automation is that these systems can miss qualified candidates if their CVs use a different language from that of the learning model. What\u2019s more, these tools can reproduce certain previous biases if they are trained on poor quality databases. Amazon, for example, abandoned a recruitment tool that penalised female CVs, having been trained on predominantly male data. This shows how biased data can lead to discriminatory results, even if the system seems neutral. Without a human eye, these tools can reinforce prejudice.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Read the full article&nbsp;<\/strong>in the&nbsp;latest edition of Change Magazine:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-rich is-provider-issuu wp-block-embed-issuu\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<iframe title=\"&quot;Change - A new way of talking business&quot; I\u00c9SEG Magazine - Issue #11\" src=\"https:\/\/e.issuu.com\/embed.html?u=ieseg&#038;d=changemagazine-june2025-issue11&#038;pageNumber=7\" style=\"border:none; width: 1304px; height: 1000px;\" allow=\"clipboard-write,allow-top-navigation,allow-top-navigation-by-user-activation,allow-downloads,allow-scripts,allow-same-origin,allow-popups,allow-modals,allow-popups-to-escape-sandbox,allow-forms\"  allowfullscreen=\"true\"><\/iframe>\n<\/div><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p><em><a href=\"https:\/\/www.ieseg.fr\/en\/the-school\/newsroom\/change-magazine\/\">This magazine<\/a> aims to be an information tool, thanks to the range of expertise of our professors and the informed opinions of our professional partners in relation to current themes.
