I just applied for a job and the confirmation email included this line:

“We may use artificial intelligence tools to support parts of the hiring process… These tools assist our Talent team but do not replace human judgment. All hiring decisions are made by humans.”

I’m not anti AI but AI deciding who is worth meeting? That still feels like a very human responsibility.

Curious where others land on this.

Where do you think AI adds value in hiring, and where does it start getting in the way?

It's hard to say how much AI is actually part of the process with that very vague language. I think AI should have no part in the "human" resources process, but that's just me.

Yeah, I totally get the frustration; the vague wording always feels like they're hiding something, doesn't it? I don't think AI should be completely banned from HR either, but I agree it shouldn't be the one making the big calls. Stuff like initial resume screening or scheduling interviews? Sure, AI can handle the boring, repetitive parts and save everyone time. But when it comes to actually evaluating a person's fit, potential, or personality, especially the nuanced stuff that doesn't show up on paper that absolutely needs human judgment. Too many stories out there of AI systems rejecting great candidates because of weird keyword gaps or hidden biases in the training data.

Wow! This is the first time I’ve heard of an organization, being honest. I think most organizations have been using AI tools to scan resumes and decide who’s worth meeting. But they just haven’t been telling us about it.

Right? It’s actually kind of shocking when a company just comes out and says it instead of burying it in fine print or pretending everything’s still done by hand.
You’re 100% right that most places have been quietly using AI for years by resume screening, keyword matching, even those weird “personality assessment” quizzes that feel like they’re judging you harder than a human ever would. They don’t advertise it because they know people hate the idea of a bot deciding whether you get a shot.

The line is pretty clear for me. AI for admin tasks like scheduling interviews, parsing resumes for basic keywords, things like that. Deciding whether someone gets a callback is a bridge too far for me. We've already got to contend with ATS, and that's bad enough.

like

Totally fair line to draw! I’m right there with you. Using AI to handle the grunt work like pulling keywords, flagging basic requirements, or juggling calendars makes sense; it frees up humans to do the actual human stuff.
But letting it decide who gets a callback? That’s where it starts feeling like you’re applying to a black box instead of a company. ATS systems were sold as “efficiency tools,” but half the time they’re just keyword gatekeepers that toss out perfectly qualified people because their resume didn’t phrase something exactly the way the algorithm likes. Adding another layer of AI judgment on top of that just amplifies the frustration.

That’s a great point! AI can help sort through applications quickly, which is handy. But you're right deciding who to meet should stay human. It’s all about finding the right balance. AI should assist, not take over.
