A Study on the Recruitment Process in the Digital Era

The recruitment process has changed significantly with the rapidly evolving digital age. Earlier, where job ads were given in newspapers, now you can get them through various digital portals. It has significantly eradicated personnel bias from the hiring process. Now, we can see and use innovative digital forms to draw in, evaluate, and hire the best personnel. This change is more than just implementing new software; it's a fundamental reaffirmation of how technology can improve hiring procedures. The evolution of recruiting techniques in the Indian job market in the digital age is examined in this paper, focusing on the function of many digital tools such as job portals, Linked-in, and applicant tracking systems (ATS). However, the focus of this paper will be on the effectiveness of these digital tools in hiring the top candidates. Is ATS free from bias and can be trusted? This paper will further explore the questions like whether a country like India where the informal sector is huge can leverage technology in hiring candidates. This study attempts to offer an in-depth investigation of hiring trends, opportunities, and obstacles in digital recruiting procedures by using a mixed-methods approach that incorporates both qualitative and quantitative data. The results will help policymakers, HR experts, and job seekers better grasp the wider effects of digital recruiting on India's labor market.
