Abstract:
This literature review explores the profound impact of Artificial Intelligence (AI) on talent acquisition
and recruitment practices, delving into critical applications and implications. From candidate sourcing to
onboarding, AI technologies such as machine learning and natural language processing significantly enhance the
speed and precision of the recruitment process. The review underscores the potential of these technologies in
mitigating bias and fostering diversity while addressing ethical considerations in algorithmic decision-making.
The review highlights chatbots and virtual assistants' role in creating personalised and engaging candidate
experiences. Real-world applications and empirical studies provide insights into practical implications and
challenges organisations face when implementing AI in recruitment. The synthesis emphasises the transformative
power of AI, positioning talent acquisition as a strategic enabler for organisational success. Recommendations for
future research underscore the evolving landscape of AI in recruitment and its broader implications. This concise
overview is a valuable resource for academics, practitioners, and policymakers navigating the dynamic
intersection of AI and talent acquisition, offering a comprehensive understanding of the evolving workforce
landscape.
