Are traditional approaches to candidate shortlisting and assessment about to be replaced?

There are plenty of traditional candidate shortlisting and assessment methods that are used as part of the recruitment process but are they about to be replaced by the latest advances in technology?

Once suitable candidates have been attracted to a role an initial sift needs to be undertaken as part of the application process, then those who make it through the ‘knockout’ stage need to be assessed as part of the screening process. All whilst being fair, transparent and acting without discrimination or bias throughout the process.
