AN OVERVIEW OF THE TECHNOLOGICAL IMPACT ON RECRUITMENT AND SELECTION TECHNIQUES

Abstract

This article reports the main changes undergone by the People Management area due to technological advances, highlighting the importance of human capital and, consequently, of Recruitment and Selection (R&S) processes. To achieve its goal of presenting the greatest benefits that technology provides to recruiters and candidates, the present study brings both perspectives to light, while demonstrating the differences between traditional and more recent methodologies through a literature review. Throughout the analysis, it is possible to verify the great relevance that digital media have acquired on R&S, as well as the need to master them so that opportunities are not wasted. It is worth noting that besides the numerous advantages discussed here, there are still barriers to be overcome, such as the lack of access to the internet by a part of population. All these discussed points make the urgency of digital inclusion even more noticeable so that everyone can benefit equally.
