AI's Arrival at Work Reshaping Employers' Hunt for Talent
- Tomas Chamorro-Premuzic of ManpowerGroup said AI is reshaping recruitment by enabling candidates to send hundreds of perfect applications daily and bypass assessments with bots.
- This shift arises as AI adoption expands rapidly worldwide, with the ILO reporting that one in four workers faces exposure to generative AI's capabilities, raising concerns about workforce impacts.
- Chamorro-Premuzic emphasized that recruiting now focuses on candidates' potential and human qualities like curiosity and ethical judgement, which AI can help measure but cannot replace.
- A TestGorilla survey found 17 percent of job seekers admitted cheating on tests, though only some used AI, while nearly two-thirds of hiring managers use AI for job descriptions and screening.
- Chamorro-Premuzic warned that for each technology dollar invested, eight or nine should be spent on HR and culture, as productivity gains depend on how saved time from AI is utilized.

Can the ‘Alpha in the Elevators’ Give Active Managers the Edge They Need?
Almost every portfolio manager, analyst, and employee has heard some variation of the phrase “people are our most important asset.” And few would question that, as the U.S. economy has become a knowledge economy, motivating and engaging talent has only grown in importance given its positive effect on productivity.
