AI in the job: opportunities and fears of the applicants for 2025!

Artificial intelligence (AI) increasingly conquers the world of work, and a current survey by Softgarden shows that 90.2 % of those surveyed expect a stronger presence of AI in 2025. However, only 63.5 % of those surveyed believe that this will have a direct impact on their own jobs. Interestingly, only 11.2 % of applicants are afraid of negative consequences due to the growing use of AI, while 59.4 % expect a positive effect on their career prospects. This survey was carried out under 4,505 job applicants, which illuminates the assessments from various industries. With 85.3 %, the IT industry in particular shows the greatest willingness to accept KI, while only 50 % expect an increase in retail, as OTS reports.

The changes in recruiting

The effects of AI on the recruiting process cannot be overlooked. According to Haufe, AI becomes a decisive factor for both HR managers and applicants. Algorithms help personnel to create efficient job advertisements and quickly identify suitable candidates. For job seekers, on the other hand, AI-based text generators make it easier to create application documents. Where used to work on the cover letter for hours, a keyword is often sufficient to generate high -quality texts. The hope is that AI will make the selection process more fair and objective.

The future of recruiting lies in a balanced interaction between man and machine. Despite the increase in efficiency through AI, personal contact remains indispensable. Recruiters must also assess the soft skills of applicants, which are difficult to record by machines. AI becomes a supporter, not to replace human skills - this underlines the need to understand and use both the technological possibilities and the human dimension in the application process, as it Haufe demands.
