AI recruiting tools can help recruiters and hiring managers source and screen candidates more efficiently, ultimately leading to faster and better hiring decisions.

In 2023, the use of AI in recruiting is becoming increasingly popular as companies look for innovative ways to compete for top talent and reduce the time and cost associated with recruitment. 

AI-powered recruiting tools can analyze job descriptions, resumes, and social media profiles to match candidates with job requirements, screen, and rank resumes, conduct video interviews, and predict a candidate's likelihood of accepting a job offer. 

With that said, here are 15 of the best AI recruiting tools currently available in the market: : 

Turing

Turing is an AI-powered candidate-vetting software that matches organizations with tech engineers and experts to solve business problems. 

CEO Jonathan Sidharth says Turing selects developers using their intelligent vetting process. They use different algorithms to predict which developers pass or fail. Turing also uses machine learning to autocomplete the gaps in the vetting process, which makes vetting more efficient. Specifically, they employ gradient boosters, decision trees, logistic regression, and other techniques to predict whether the developer will succeed in a  job. 

Additionally, here are the benefits of using an AI recommendation engine to match candidates:

  • AI eliminates issues of keyword searches with contextual evaluation. Candidates that don’t have the proper keywords in their resumes, or don’t have the most aesthetically-pleasing one, but are otherwise a good fit for the position, get recommended for the position
  • AI reduces hiring bias by considering the applicant’s background and skill sets as the main criteria for selection. The applicant’s gender, age, and race don’t impact on candidate scoring. 
  • AI automatically identifies the most suited job opportunities for applicants, which helps companies save time and money and hire more effectively

AI helps recruiters by automating the repetitive task involved in candidate assessment like resume screening and background and reference checking so HR can focus on more ‘human aspects of recruitment’ like evaluating whether the candidate fits the organization’s culture and improving relationships with hiring managers. 

Turing has an extensive candidate pool of 1.5 million developers and more than 100 tech specialties worldwide. And with a hiring process that can be completed within 3-5 business days, Turing can be a game changer in tech skills recruitment. 

ChatGPT

ChatGPT is a new AI-powered chatbot that provides a very realistic and human-like conversational experience. In short, if you type the questions or task, it will give answers as if you are talking to another person. 

You can search Google for different templates of job interview questions, and different messages to source and engage candidates via email and LinkedIn. Because they come from different sources, the templates will appear disjointed and uneven because you will still have to cut, paste and tweak the messages to look ‘natural’. 

However, using ChatGPT can provide almost end-to-end recruitment messages that are seamless and cohesive for a stellar candidate experience.  You can even customize job interview questions based on your own job description. 

Take a look at the following communication for recruiting a CIO: 

Prompt:

Create job interview questions based on this job description:

Job Description 1:

Title: Chief Information Officer (CIO)

Location: [Insert location]

Reports to: CEO

We are seeking an experienced and dynamic Chief Information Officer (CIO) to lead our information technology strategy and operations. The successful candidate will have a proven track record of driving business transformation through the strategic use of technology, while also managing risk, ensuring cybersecurity, and delivering high-quality services to our internal and external customers.

Additionally, you use ChatGPT to perform a low-level job market research.

You can also create Boolean search string specific to the position you are trying to fill. 

Pricing

Prices are per 1,000 tokens. You can think of tokens as pieces of words, where 1,000 tokens are about 750 words. 

The above tasks were performed using InstructGPT, with the following prices: 

Ada - $0.0004 / 1K tokens

Babbage - $0.0005 / 1K tokens

Curie - $0.0020 / 1K tokens
