Transparency in using artificial intelligence (AI) in hiring processes isn't optional but essential, according to experts. Candidates need to understand why AI technologies are being used and how they are evaluated by these systems. AI can help weed out bias, make effective hiring decisions and streamline processes, but its usage must be clear to candidates. For instance, if facial recognition software is used for video interviews, companies should disclose this along with explaining how it aids in decision-making. Achieving this clarity can build trust and protect businesses legally. It is also essential that developers make AI self-explainable, still keeping in mind various scenarios and understanding the reality of hiring departments. Overall transparency in AI-driven hiring boosts candidate experience and system credibility.
