The Impact of Artificial Intelligence on Employee Recruitment and Selection Processes in the Hospitality Industry

Project Abstract

This research project aims to investigate the impact of artificial intelligence (AI) on employee recruitment and selection processes in the hospitality industry. The hospitality industry is known for its high employee turnover rates and the constant need for effective recruitment and selection strategies to attract and retain top talent. With the rapid advancement of AI technology, many organizations in the hospitality sector are increasingly turning to AI-driven solutions to streamline their recruitment and selection processes. The study will begin with a comprehensive review of the existing literature on the use of AI in recruitment and selection, focusing on its benefits, challenges, and implications for the hospitality industry. The review will explore how AI technologies such as machine learning, natural language processing, and predictive analytics are being employed to automate and enhance various aspects of the recruitment and selection process, including resume screening, candidate assessment, and job matching. The research methodology will involve a mixed-methods approach, combining quantitative data analysis with qualitative interviews and surveys with HR professionals, hiring managers, and job applicants in the hospitality industry. The quantitative analysis will examine key metrics such as time-to-hire, cost-per-hire, and candidate quality before and after the implementation of AI-based recruitment and selection tools. The qualitative component will provide insights into the perceptions, attitudes, and experiences of stakeholders regarding the use of AI in recruitment and selection. The findings of the study are expected to shed light on the opportunities and challenges associated with the adoption of AI in employee recruitment and selection processes in the hospitality industry. The discussion will explore the implications of AI technology for HR practices, organizational culture, and the overall recruitment experience for both employers and job seekers. Recommendations will be provided for hospitality organizations looking to leverage AI effectively in their recruitment and selection processes while addressing potential ethical and legal considerations. In conclusion, this research project will contribute to the growing body of knowledge on the use of AI in HRM practices, specifically in the context of the hospitality industry. By examining the impact of AI on employee recruitment and selection processes, this study seeks to inform HR professionals, industry practitioners, and policymakers on the best practices and strategies for integrating AI technology into the recruitment and selection process to improve efficiency, effectiveness, and fairness.
