Unleashing the potential of AI in recruitment
Artificial intelligence (AI) is transforming the recruitment landscape and revolutionising the way companies hire. Here are some of the ways that AI can enhance the efficiency and effectiveness of the hiring process:
Automate repetitive tasks
One of the primary benefits of using AI recruitment tools is the ability to automate repetitive tasks. These tasks can include sorting through CVs, scheduling interviews, and sending follow-up emails. By automating these, AI frees up valuable time for recruiters and hiring managers to focus on more strategic aspects of the hiring process.
Streamline candidate screening
Traditional screening methods can be time-consuming and subject to human error. However, AI can quickly analyse large volumes of CVs and identify the most suitable candidates based on pre-defined criteria. This not only speeds up the screening process but also ensures that no applicant is overlooked.
Gain valuable insights
AI can provide valuable insights to help recruiters and hiring managers make informed decisions. For example, predictive analytics can forecast a candidate’s job performance and cultural fit within the company. Using AI recruitment tools, you can also analyse a candidate’s social media profiles to gain insights into their personality and values. These insights can help recruiters make more objective and data-driven hiring decisions. Find out more about social media screening.
One innovative application of AI in recruitment is AI-powered interview question generation. This technology uses machine learning algorithms to analyse the criteria provided and generate relevant interview questions. It can consider factors like the job title, required skills, and seniority level to create questions that accurately assess a candidate’s suitability for the role.

Tailoring interviews with customisable criteria
To get started, all you need to do is enter the job title you are recruiting for, the level of seniority (for example, entry-level, middle manager, board level etc), and the industry. Then you select up to three soft skills that you want your successful candidate to have. You can choose from skills such as emotional intelligence, creativity, commercial awareness, critical thinking and more.
Within minutes, the tool will generate a set of bespoke interview questions to ask candidates. Once you have generated your interview questions, you can change the order of the questions, choose different skills, refresh the whole set to review more questions, or lock in your favourite questions and refresh the rest.
How does the tool adapt to different industries and job roles?
This AI interview tool allows employers to select various criteria to tailor the interview questions to their specific needs. These criteria include the job role, required skills, level of experience, and more. The tool uses these inputs to generate questions that are relevant to the job and the company’s requirements.
The interview question generator can be used for any job role. Either select one from the drop-down list, or just choose your own. You can also choose from 27 industries, from engineering and manufacturing to insurance and pensions.
So, whether you’re hiring for a tech startup or a traditional manufacturing company, Reed’s interview question generator can provide relevant questions to assess candidates effectively.
