In a world moving at a very fast pace, AI has turned out to be one of the strong tools in everyday life. Be it virtual assistants that help one keep track of their timetable or AI-powered search engines and personalized recommendations – just for you – it is pretty obvious how this artificial intelligence has flipped the way we work and live. Here at DCoding Labs, we value AI most with regards to making processes efficient and streamlined. But when it comes to finding top talent, we still believe in the value of the old-fashioned way known as, personal engagement, human vetting, and a hands-on approach to recruitment. While AI can be a great tool for automation, it also brings clutter and noise into the hiring process, as can be seen in AI-generated resumes that lack the personal touch and commitment which real candidates offer. To us, recruitment has been about connecting people, not just filtering through loads of data. Why We Keep It Human At DCoding Labs, we have witnessed this ourselves: the increase in AI-generated resumes and applications. Sure, these auto-generated documents look polished, but they are very often bereft of any genuine effort and real understanding required for the position. Applicants who rely completely on AI tools in applying may not be fully invested in positions they apply for, hence leading to a possible skill and culture mismatch. At best, we believe finding the right candidate goes beyond keywords and algorithms – it’s about finding people who have taken the time and effort to tailor-fit their applications to showcase passion and qualifications for a particular position. It is for this reason that we adopt a hands-on approach: manually filtering through applications to eliminate clutter brought about by AI-generated resumes and allowing only real, qualified candidates to hit your desk. Resumes are not the defining factor. We believe that for software related positions, the resume is not merely as important as the candidate’s technical skills, cultural fit, and personality. We pride ourselves on a 92% retention rate since our inception. The Problem with Automated Screening Tools While automated screening tools save time by making processes easier, they sometimes miss out on the minute details that make a candidate fit perfectly for a particular position. Most AI tools look out for just certain keywords or formats, leading to qualified applicants getting missed out just because they failed to phrase their experiences in the “right” way. On the other hand a newly added AI Tool will pass through auto-generated resumes which may be heavy in keywords but essentially lack substance. Such AI bots, if used correctly, are able to apply to 1,000 job applications in 24 hours, each with a customized resume for any particular company (Github Repo, Feder, 2024). We have seen how dependence solely upon AI for hiring can make the process slower, also increasing the chances of mis-hiring. That is why we do not leave the decision to hire on a machine; instead, we use our expertise in manually vetting the candidates. We believe that recruitment needs a human touch to ensure people we recommend are qualified and genuinely interested in the positions you are hiring for. Our Approach: The Good Old “Quality over Quantity” It is a simple yet effective process wherein we filter out all the noise and focus on quality over quantity. We do this by reviewing the candidates manually, so only the best, well-qualified ones will go through. We don’t just look at a resume; we examine the candidate’s experience, passion, and potential alignment with the role given, as well as culture for your company. This saves you not only time, which would otherwise be taken up sifting through applications from unqualified candidates, but also maximizes your chances of finding the best candidate for the job. In a world where automation is becoming the norm, we stand by the belief that sometimes, the best results come from doing things with a touch of old-fashioned way. In Conclusion: Embrace AI, But Keep the Human Touch While we recognize the unprecedented power of AI in our daily lives, we are of the view that recruitment is and will always remain a personal affair. Leaving behind the clutter and noise of AI-generated resumes, we assure you get only the best candidates—those real, qualified, and committed. At DCoding Labs, we strive to ease your hiring process, making it quicker and efficient without compromising on that personal touch which makes all the difference. Come, let us help you find the right talent, in the right way. https://www.dcodinglabs.com/#contact-us DISCLAIMER: This article has been written by a human. References: Feder.
