We are amplifying the use of AI by integrating and training a 100% digital career coach, which uses Artificial Intelligence to provide candidates with valuable and personalized advice on how to improve their presence on the platform or how to become more attractive to employers, starting from CV writing- ului and until participating in the interview”, says Andrei Frunză, CEO of bestjobs.

Among recruiters, more than two-thirds admit to using AI platforms in the recruiting process, and just as many say they have started looking for candidates’ ability to use such tools. Most often, recruiters choose to use AI for writing job ads, for the most efficient selection of suitable candidates based on the CVs they receive, and for creating content that promotes the company’s Employer Branding strategy.

“In recent years, the labor market has been on the side of the candidates, who are in many areas insufficient in relation to the available jobs. This meant a much higher workload for employers, who were constantly on the lookout for suitable candidates. Bestjobs has created an algorithm to support recruiters in matching candidates with active jobs faster based on job description information. In addition, bestjobs has directly integrated into the platform the intelligent generation of content for job descriptions, recruiters thus managing to save 60% of the time dedicated to publishing an ad”, adds Andrei Frunză.

Bestjobs thus significantly improves the experience of platform users, bringing added value to candidates, through the personalized advice they have access to in real time, but also to employers, by simplifying the recruitment process, from the publication of the ad to the selection of candidates.
