About the Course

Talent acquisition involves attracting, assessing and selecting candidates for organisational roles.

This course provides a focused introduction to these applications through three modules.

The content combines recruitment concepts with AI-related applications, helping you understand how technology may be used within sourcing, screening and candidate evaluation without presenting automated systems as a replacement for appropriate human judgement.

AI and Modern Recruitment

AI can help recruitment teams process information and identify patterns across applications, but recruitment decisions can involve context and judgement that automated systems may not fully understand. Human review remains important when considering candidate suitability, fairness and the wider requirements of a role.

This course introduces AI-supported recruitment as a learning topic, helping you understand where digital tools may fit within sourcing and candidate evaluation. It does not guarantee hiring outcomes or employer acceptance.
