The use of artificial intelligence (AI) in recruiting is just getting started so we know you have questions about how and why we use it. At certain points during our recruiting process we rely on AI to improve your experience. This could be during resume review or curating personalized job recommendations asking you clarifying questions via a chatbot or during our interview scheduling to improve your experience. Our use of AI helps ensure we combat bias by evaluating candidates equally and fairly without seeing identity information such as your name or gender for example). AI also helps us better predict successful hires by reviewing all applicants for a role and the relationship between your skills experience and likely success at PwC Canada.
