AI for HR and recruiting teams who still hire the person

For HR generalists, recruiters and talent teams.

Use AI to draft job ads, screen applications faster and organise interview notes, while every hiring and people decision stays a human judgement made with fairness in mind.

When to use this

You have a role to fill, a stack of applications to get through, and policy questions from staff that need a clear, kind answer.

  • Drafts a job ad or interview question set from a rough role description
  • Summarises long applications or interview notes into comparable short points
  • Turns a policy document into a plain answer to a common staff question

Workflow

  1. Use the tool to draft, not to decide who gets shortlisted or hired

  2. Ask for job ads and questions that focus on the role, not on protected characteristics

  3. Have a person independently review any AI assisted shortlist before it is acted on

  4. Check policy answers against your actual current policy before you send them

  5. Keep identifiable candidate and staff data out of tools your organisation has not approved

Prompts to try

Use it, adapt it, and make it your own.

Draft a job ad for a [role] at a [type of organisation]. Focus on the actual responsibilities and required skills. Keep the tone welcoming and avoid language that could discourage a diverse range of applicants.

Human lens

  • You make the hiring decision, and you are accountable for it being fair
  • You watch for bias that a summary or a generated shortlist can quietly introduce
  • You handle sensitive staff situations with judgement a tool cannot exercise

What to avoid

  • Do not let a tool make or effectively make a hiring or termination decision
  • Screening summaries can carry hidden bias, so spot check against the original application
  • Candidate and employee data is sensitive and often regulated, so check what is allowed before you paste it
