AI is reshaping just about every industry and job function today—and hiring is no exception. A recent survey found that 75% of hiring leaders trust AI to help with hiring decisions, and companies using AI-powered hiring tools report reducing time-to-hire by up to 50%. Still, many recruiters and talent leaders are rightfully wondering: How do companies leverage AI for efficiency without losing the human touch in their hiring practices? 

In collaboration with Ashby, we at CodeSignal created a playbook that shows hiring managers how to solve this challenge. Leveraging AI for a Human-Centric Hiring Process provides actionable strategies for integrating AI into every stage of hiring, without compromising human connection.

Smarter candidate screening saves time and reduces bias

One of the biggest hiring challenges is evaluating skills fairly and objectively. Traditional screening methods often introduce bias and inconsistencies. AI-native skills assessments—like those we offer at CodeSignal—provide deep insights into candidates’ job-relevant skills.

  • Realistic job simulations allow candidates to demonstrate on-the-job performance
  • Automated scoring ensures fair and consistent evaluations
  • AI-powered plagiarism detection safeguards the integrity of assessments

AI tools augment the power of the live interview

AI is not just improving pre-screening—it’s also transforming live one-on-one and panel interviews. 

  • AI-powered virtual notetaking allows interviewers to focus on the conversation rather than documentation
  • Standardized evaluation criteria ensure every candidate is assessed fairly
  • AI-driven insights provide deeper skill insights, leading to better hiring decisions

Automated scheduling boosts speed-to-hire

One of the most time-consuming aspects of hiring is coordinating interviews. AI-powered scheduling tools, like those from Ashby, reduce back-and-forth communication by automating availability coordination.

  • AI-driven scheduling systems sync with team calendars, reducing manual coordination
  • Interview scheduling is 33% faster with automated booking tools
  • A streamlined scheduling process leads to a better candidate experience and reduced time-to-hire

Why AI-driven hiring matters now more than ever

By leveraging AI while maintaining a human-first approach, companies can:

  • Reduce time-to-hire without compromising on quality-of-hire
  • Ensure fair and objective evaluations based on candidates’ skills, not background
  • Improve the overall candidate experience through personalized communication
