How GMS Can Streamline Your Recruitment Process
The recruitment process involves searching through online job boards, reviewing resumes, conducting multiple interviews, writing job descriptions, and more. As a business owner, your time and energy should be focused on growing your business and improving your bottom line, rather than sifting through resumes and organizing phone interviews.
In recent years, recruitment has increasingly relied on artificial intelligence (AI). According to HR Dive, 57% of companies already use AI in hiring, and 74% believe it has improved the quality of their hires. While AI technology has helped companies by analyzing candidate language, handling communication, reviewing resumes, and scheduling interviews, there are still concerns surrounding potential AI bias and inaccuracies.
While it may look like AI is the future of employee recruitment, there are other ways for business owners to review potential candidates and streamline their hiring processes that don’t involve unreliable AI technology. One effective solution business owners can utilize is a professional employer organization (PEO) partnership.
PEOs and Recruitment
Recruiting, hiring, and training employees can be time-consuming for employers, but teaming up with a PEO like Group Management Services (GMS) can simplify this process.
1. Knowledgeable team
By partnering with a PEO, you gain access to a range of services and the support of a knowledgeable team of experts. Your dedicated human resources (HR) team serves as your main point of contact and is available to assist with any questions or concerns related to the recruitment process, HR compliance, specific candidates, and more. GMS’ recruitment team can help you write job descriptions, job ads, and implement effective recruitment strategies. They can review applicants and conduct phone interviews, providing you with the extra support needed to hire the right candidate.
2. Partnerships with job boards and applicant tracking
One of the most challenging aspects of recruitment is attracting the right candidates. It can be difficult to find individuals who are experienced, focused, and have the specific skills required for the role. GMS’ partnership with Indeed and LinkedIn simplifies the job posting process by reaching a broader pool of applicants.
3. Assistance in managing the recruitment process
The recruitment process involves managing multiple responsibilities at once. At GMS, our team is fully equipped to support every stage of the recruitment process, including crafting compelling job descriptions, posting openings, reviewing resumes, and conducting phone interviews. Business owners gain access to powerful tools that simplify and optimize hiring workflows through our Applicant Tracking System (ATS) and GMS Connect. An ATS tracks potential candidates throughout the hiring journey and provides valuable insights to business owners and our recruitment team. Onboarding and training are seamlessly managed through GMS Connect, our advanced Human Resources Information System (HRIS), designed to simplify and enhance the employee experience.
Negative Impacts of Using AI In Recruiting
While there are several benefits to using AI for employee recruitment, such as cost reduction, task automation, and interview assistance, it also comes with notable drawbacks that business owners should carefully consider. Utilizing AI technology can lead to potential privacy concerns and HR compliance risks. Many organizations haven’t established policies for AI, which increases the risk of non-compliance and privacy violations. These violations can lead to employee distrust and monetary penalties. AI technology also has a history of reinforcing bias, leading to unfair treatment of certain demographic groups.
GMS acts as your recruitment partner by providing your company with the knowledge, technological support, and expertise needed to interview and hire the right candidate for your open positions. Whether you need help with writing that perfect job description, have questions about the interview process, or need help posting a new open position online, we can lend a helping hand.
