The AI invasion is already here. Those who fail to adapt risk career stagnation or obsolescence
In today’s recruitment industry, AI is no longer the fancy add-on or the nascent trend, it has become the default system. Recruiters adopt it to save time, reduce costs, and improve candidate matching by deploying automated resume screening, candidate matching, predictive analytic capabilities, as well as deploying chatbots and virtual assistants to engage candidates in real time. The broad spectrum of efficacies that AI has availed to recruiters has completely changed the recruitment landscape.
Therefore, for job seekers, adapting is non-negotiable. Failure to adapt means accepting career stagnation or career dearth. It is an adapt or die situation. The upside to adapting quickly and effectively means surviving the hiring process and standing out in a crowded, tech-supported market.
Just as the popular Ibo adage stipulated, that “since the hunter has learned to shoot without missing, the Nza bird has learned to fly without perching”. This merely indicates that job seekers will need to nimbly shift to active adaptation to acquire knowledge and/ or capability to position themselves as AI-empowered talent in the market.
To do this, job seekers will need to master optimizing AI recruitment system which involves tailoring resumes with keywords and formatting so that their application can pass the AI-powered Applicant Tracking Systems (ATS). Beyond this, they would learn to work with AI for research or drafting compliant resumes and applications, maintain digital presence to keep up, reskill to master digital and AI ladened skills that would help keep them ahead or at least in pace with the AI invasion .
In Nigeria, early adapters will stand out in both local and international markets. However, the level of retooling will be herculean to many professionals as well as youths who are freshly stepping in the job market. Too many will not have access to the right information or have the resources (time and fund) to acquire the skills required. This has the debilitating potential to cripple aggregate careers growth of Nigerians, stunting our global competitiveness.
