""I think models will be better at interviewing than people," said Victor Lazarte, the founder of mobile games company Wildlife Studio, on venture capital podcast The Twenty Minute VC in April. You'd think that John Kim, the CEO of a San Francisco-based AI recruiting company, would wholeheartedly agree. But you'd be wrong. "There needs to be a human in the loop for recruiting," says Kim, CEO of Paraform, which raised $20 million during its Series A funding in June."
"That's good news for recruiters, job seekers, and the companies looking for talent. Businesses are leaning more on AI to reduce hiring, but also putting more focus on finding the best people for the jobs they are filling. Job applicants want to make sure they are getting the kind of treatment that puts them in the best possible position to get a great new role. And recruiters want to sort through the noise in this buyers' market and do what they do best."
Models may improve interview performance, but recruiting still requires human judgment and a human-in-the-loop approach. Paraform, an AI recruiting company that raised $20 million in Series A funding, emphasizes combining AI efficiency with human oversight. Businesses increasingly adopt AI to streamline hiring while focusing on finding the best-fit candidates. Job applicants seek respectful, effective treatment to maximize their chances for suitable roles. Recruiters use AI tools to filter candidates and reclaim time for high-value tasks. Startups particularly benefit from getting hires right the first time to avoid costly missteps. Platforms like Paraform claim to save recruiters hours per day.
