[Digital Today reporter Hwang Chi-gyu] AI and data-based HR tech platform JobKorea, operated by Worksphere, held a workshop for HR managers titled HReka Day at Worksphere headquarters in Seoul's Seocho district on Nov. 3 and shared ways to apply AI to recruitment work.

JobKorea worked with external partner Notion to set up the session, reflecting concerns in HR workplaces about difficulty in setting standards between automation and tasks requiring staff judgment.

At JobKorea, Seung-hwan Ji (지승환), head of the JK Sales Office, gave a presentation on “recruitment strategies to secure outstanding talent.” He stressed that the starting point for designing an AI workflow is recruitment strategy, and that organisations should first establish what talent to secure, when and through which channels. He also introduced JobKorea use cases by task, including short-term large-scale hiring by growth companies and recruitment of key talent by companies focused on specialist personnel.

In a hands-on session with Notion, participants reviewed the recruitment process step by step, from hiring requests to posting job ads, reviewing documents, coordinating interviews, compiling evaluations and notifying successful candidates, and diagnosed bottlenecks. They then designed their own AI workflows to integrate recruitment information into a single database and automate repetitive organising and notification tasks with AI. During the practice, participants received one-on-one feedback on their workflows. They also shared completed outputs and discussed ways to improve them.

Eun-hye Jeong (정은혜), head of Worksphere's Insight Strategy Team, said, “Since introducing AI and transforming recruitment work systems are on a different level, we focused on having participants directly design their own company’s recruitment process.” She added, “Based on recruitment data and AI technology capabilities, JobKorea will present practical solutions so HR managers can secure key talent more quickly.”
