Abstract
In today's job market, the increasing use of artificial intelligence (AI) in recruitment processes poses challenges for students. This project report examines students' concerns and challenges regarding artificial intelligence in recruitment processes. Students fear AI's impact on critical thinking and creativity, uncertainty about selection criteria, and the lack of human interaction. To address these issues, the study systematically collected and analyzed data from STEM and Non-STEM students, aiming to construct a theory grounded in empirical evidence. Findings underscore the importance of addressing students' anxiety, promoting continuous learning, and enhancing transparency in AI systems to foster a more equitable recruitment environment. These insights offer valuable guidance for organizations and educational institutions seeking to adapt to the evolving dynamics of AI-driven recruitment processes.
