UniCredit introduced AI first-round interviews in its Czech and Slovak recruitment process

WorkingCompany's own claimOfficial ↗

Problem

UniCredit wanted to reduce recruitment work so its People and Culture staff could spend more time advising employees.

Approach

The bank gradually deployed an AI recruitment chatbot from July 2021 in Czechia and Slovakia. It interviewed candidates, tested them and sorted them by suitability for a position. UniCredit described profile assessment based on competencies and commitment.

Results

No published figures

Takeaway

HR reported having more time for direct employee contact. UniCredit did not publish a time saving or validation results for candidate assessment.
