The remote work interviews They have become fertile terrain for candidates to use AI as a cheat assistant and simply read the answers that the assistant facilitates in real time. A survey of the interview simulation portal with AI interviewing.io It points to the fact that 81% of the interviewers suspect that candidates use AI During their interviews, while 31 % have already confirmed it.
The dilemma: traps or tools? One of the most striking cases of use of AI in the Cluelystartup founded by two Columbia student to solve technical interviews with the help of An undetectable For the interviewer. After discovering the deception, the University suspended it for “academic dishonesty.”
However, the approach of the two students He opened a debate: Is it a trap to use a calculator or spelling corrector of the text editor or are they tools that everyone uses in their usual work?
Increasingly hard interviews. To respond to these practices of candidates who hide the use of AI attendees during their interviews, companies have hardened the processes. As the analyst and engineer points out Gergely Orosz In one of the entries from your newslettersome companies are already changing the content of the interviews so that they are more open and require a logical route and not simply remain in the copy and paste of the Training questions that appear on platforms Training as Leetcode.
Orosz stressed that the interviewers of large companies as a goal, are already obliged to indicate whether there are suspicions that the candidate is cheating at any point in the selection process, not only in technical tests.
Thus, interviews are less vulnerable to the use of AI. According to statements From a finish line, “we demand the candidates to share their entire screen and deactivate all the background filters (including the blur) in most interviews” to reduce the possibility of external support. According to collected India TodayAmazon has already made it clear that “the use of unauthorized during interviews can lead to immediate disqualification” of the hiring process.
Prohibit interviews. The dilemma facing technological press to use them In all possible processes.
While some companies prohibit the use of AI In their interviews, others explore otherwise. According The published by Business InsiderGoal is allowing to use AI assistants in some of their work interviews. According to the company, “candidates can use AI tools in the same way that engineers do in their day to day.”
What do you know how to do with AI? In that same line, other companies such as Canva move, which Incentives use of AI tools in their interviews to assess the skills of the candidates in this area.
As stated, Farhan Thawar, Shopify engineering manager at A recent interviewin the selection processes of their department they let the candidates use what they want. “I love it. Because what happens now is that Ia sometimes generates pure garbage. When the candidate uses an AI assistant, I like to see the code generated. I ask them: What do you think? Is it a good code? Isn’t it a good code? Is there any problem?” That approach puts the AI in the place that will occupy in its real position, since one of the tasks of the candidate It will be to check code generated by Ia.
The return of the face -to -face. On the other hand, given the increase in fraud, some companies are recovering face -to -face interviews. Great technology such as Google, Cisco and McKinsey have reintroduced at least A face -to -face round.
According to a Gartner report72.4 % of those responsible for selection are already applying it to reduce fraud In work interviews since face -to -face interviews allow you to verify the immediate reasoning, communication and reaction skills of the candidates. “Teleworking and advances in artificial intelligence have facilitated more than ever the infiltration of false candidates in the hiring process,” declared to Computerworld Scott McGuckin, Vice President of Acquisition of Global Talent of Cisco
