AI is going to change everything in HR! (...is what we’re hearing everywhere nowadays.)

While many HR pros are using AI in their work, the tech will continue to disrupt their processes. That’s why Google’s recruitment team has positioned itself somewhere between actively using and continuing to experiment with AI, according to Brian Ong, Google's VP of recruiting.

“There’s a lot of tasks in the recruiter’s day job, and more and more AI can take care of some of those tasks in different ways,” Ong told HR Brew.

When interviewing international candidates, Ong said recruiters typically brush up on geographical and cultural differences. Nowadays, Google recruiters use the company’s AI language learning model (LLM), NotebookLM, to educate themselves, inform interview questions, and improve the candidate experience.

New York-based employers that don’t already offer a qualified retirement savings program to their workers will be required to enroll them in a state-sponsored Roth Individual Retirement Account (IRA) starting next year.

The requirement stems from a bill passed by the New York State Senate in 2021, which amended the state’s General Business Law to establish the program. Gov. Hochul only recently announced the launch of the program, titled the New York State Secure Choice Retirement Savings Program, on Oct. 8.

New York is the latest state to enact an “auto-IRA” program to improve access to employer-sponsored retirement benefits.

For years now, employers have pushed job candidates to explain how they’ll deploy AI within an organization.

But employers are often vague when it comes to stating how candidates are expected to use AI, with many job postings missing AI-related details. It’s becoming a serious concern, with an October report from Indeed finding 25% of listings do not clarify the details of use cases for the AI they require.

Cory Stahle, an Indeed senior economist, told IT Brew this lack of precision has wide-ranging impacts.
