Periodic Reporting for period 1 - CB1-18 (CB1-18 Chatbot tool for automatic job interview) Periodo di rendicontazione: 2018-04-01 al 2018-09-30 Sintesi del contesto e degli obiettivi generali del progetto Before hiring an applicant for a specific job position, an organization needs to undergo a set of phases and processes to bring in talented professionals. From the initial screening to the final decision, recruiters spend a lot of time and money in the selection processes. There is actually no company able to analyse all the applications received and job applicants run the risk of being rejected even before having their CVs or resumes read. The objective is to create a software, which can help the employability through the optimization and automatization of the recruitment and the selection processes. Indeed, CB1-18 is a computer program able to conduct a job interview automatically via auditory video and textual methods; consequently, it can potentially change the way that staffing industry works. The main goal of this project is that of providing both companies and candidates with a better and improved recruitment. CB1-18 can automatically analyse 100% of CVs instead of just 5% currently detected on the market as well as of reduce time and costs related to the selection processes thanks to Artificial Intelligence. Besides, the Chatbot increases the employability of qualified people facing difficulties in accessing the labour market due to discriminatory factors.

Progressi oltre lo stato dell’arte e potenziale impatto previsto (incluso l’impatto socioeconomico e le implicazioni sociali più ampie del progetto fino ad ora) The results of the work plan showed the attractiveness and feasibility of the project, which has great economic and social impact. CB1-18 is such an innovative tool that it will significantly influence not only Arca24 itself, but also and mainly the whole HR market, by completely changing how recruitment and selection processes work.
