AI-Powered Employees are a new class of software-based agents designed to act like a digital co-worker to assist humans by taking on routine, tedious and repetitive tasks within the workplace.
Unlike traditional software, once given a task, AI-Powered Employees possess the ability to assess data, reason, plan, decide, collaborate and take actions towards a specific goal. Whether it’s drafting a job posting, sourcing candidates, nurturing talent or analysing thousands of inbound CVs, AI-Powered Employees can achieve a wide range of knowledge tasks throughout the entire recruitment lifecycle.
Just like regular employees gaining experience, these digital co-workers continuously improve based on user feedback, becoming finely tuned to a companies’ specific needs, processes and work style.
AI-Powered Employees have different components that make up their body or software, enabling them to take actions:
Access to data: Pre-built integrations with emails, calendars, ATS, and HRIS enabling digital workers to have contextual awareness and determine the best next action in real-time.
Tools: Take actions directly in various HR-specific tools, such as LinkedIn, Crunchbase for market data, emails, calendars, RocketReach for contact information, ATS, HRIS and more.
Decision-Making Framework: The AI’s “brain” that processes all data and context, assesses hiring and operational criteria, and makes well-informed decisions to fulfil HR goals with maximum quality and efficiency.
Settings, Learning and Memory Systems: Continuously improves based on past interactions, feedback, settings and outcomes, enhancing the digital workers’ ability to refine hiring practices, and learn custom HR requirements and preferences over time.
Human review system: Enables the AI-Powered Employees to request approval, share updates, insights and actions with human team members, facilitating a seamless Human+AI partnership within the HR department.
Policy, Bias, and Security: Ensure compliance with HR regulations, actively mitigate unconscious bias to promote fair hiring, and protect sensitive data through GDPR-aligned security protocols.
Just like humans, achieving complex tasks can require the collaboration of multiple AI-Powered Employees working together as part of a Multi-Agent System (MAS). Each AI-Powered Employee, with its own unique capabilities, can specialise in different aspects of a task. In MAS, these agents communicate and collaborate to break down complex processes into manageable parts, optimising efficiency and outcomes.
For example, in the recruitment process, one agent like JobPoster might autonomously create and post job listings, while another, like TheEvaluator, ensures that enough of the inbound applicants meet the job requirements. If the pool of candidates does not match the requirements, the TheSourcer will be proactively prompted in order to go find passive candidates that could be a better fit for the role.
As they work together, the system dynamically adapts to changing context and requirements, allowing the AI-Employees to handle more complexed and nuanced workflows.
Employee engagement: Free human employees to focus on meaningful, people-centric work, allowing them to bring the human touch they signed up for.
Efficiency: Working 24/7, HR operations can run much faster to improve on all metrics and KPIs.
Quality: Minimises human error or inattention in complex and high volume processes.
Flexibility: Easily scale up or down during hiring surges to handle increased workloads without additional hires.
Time & Cost savings: Offloading 80% of tedious tasks at a tenth of the usual expense.
Bias: Transparent AI reduces bias, fostering fairer HR outcomes and building trust through clear, explainable decisions.
Data-driven insights: providing actionable insights that inform strategic decisions and improve workforce planning.
