eJobs: 80% of Romanian employers say AI will not influence recruitment, but candidates need new skills

Roughly 8 out of 10 employers in Romania say they will hire the same number of people as before, despite the implementation of artificial intelligence-based solutions, according to a survey conducted by recruitment platform eJobs. However, they will look for candidates for a different skillset than those currently sought.

The implementation of artificial intelligence-based solutions in companies is still at an early stage, given that 47.4% of employers who participated in the eJobs survey stated that they use such solutions sporadically and only at the initiative of employees. Only around 5.2% of companies in Romania have integrated AI into their departments as a strategy, and 15.5% have only a few clearly defined processes involving AI.
