Artificial Intelligence Integration in HR Practices: Challenges and Opportunities for Talent Acquisition

Abstract

This study aims to explore the integration of artificial intelligence (AI) in human resource (HR) practices, focusing on its role in talent acquisition. By conducting a comprehensive literature review using a qualitative, library research method, this paper examines the current trends, challenges, and opportunities associated with AI adoption in HR, particularly recruitment. The findings highlight that AI has the potential to significantly improve recruitment efficiency, reduce biases, and enhance decision-making processes in HR. However, the study also reveals key ethical concerns related to algorithmic biases and transparency, which can negatively impact fairness in hiring practices. Furthermore, the research emphasizes the importance of upskilling HR professionals to effectively manage AI tools and integrate them into broader organizational strategies. The paper concludes by discussing the need for transparent, ethical AI systems and suggests that further research is necessary to evaluate the long-term effects of AI on HR practices and organizational culture. This study contributes to the ongoing discourse on AI in HR by providing insights into the implications of AI-driven recruitment and offering recommendations for future research in the field.
