Bsc/Msc: Internship/Graduation Assignment - AI in Recruitment
Where AI can provide genuine added value within the front end of Recruitment?

Are you a student with knowledge and strong interest in AI, who wants to explore how Artificial Intelligence can support the front end of Recruitment? Do you want to help an international company with growing in visibility, findability and talent attraction? This might be a perfect assignment for you!

 

Artificial Intelligence is rapidly changing the world and also the way people search for information, companies, internships and jobs. Traditional search engines are no longer the only starting point. Candidates increasingly use AI-powered search tools and assistants to explore career opportunities and potential employers.


This raises important questions to the recruitment team of Canon Production Printing in Venlo: how do we make sure the right candidates can find and discover us in an increasingly AI-driven world? How is AI changing the way candidates discover employers? How can we increase the visibility and findability of our career opportunities? What determines whether our vacancies and company information appear in AI-driven searches? And perhaps most importantly: what opportunities are we currently overlooking?


That is where you come in.

 

 

Your assignment
We do not want to define the entire assignment for you. You may know more about the latest AI possibilities than we do, so we’d like to learn from your knowledge and fresh perspective.

We have some ideas about possible research directions, such as: 
•    How can we use AI to increase our visibility and findability among relevant candidates?
•    How is AI changing the way candidates search for internships, jobs and companies?
•    How can we ensure our vacancies and career opportunities remain easy to find in an AI-driven search environment?
•    Which AI tools or applications could add value to our online talent attraction activities?

 

Goals
We want this assignment to help us discover where AI can provide genuine added value within the front end of Recruitment and how we can put this into practice. The outcome could include: 
•    research into relevant AI developments, tools or applications;
•    identification of new AI opportunities for our department;
•    a proof of concept or pilot;
•    testing an AI application in practice;
•    recommendations for further implementation.
The exact outcome will depend partly on your ideas, expertise and chosen research direction.


Your profile
We are looking for a curious and independently minded student with a strong interest in Artificial Intelligence and its practical applications. Your specific field of study is less important to us. What matters most is that you bring knowledge of, experience with or a strong specialization in AI, and that you are excited to apply this expertise to a real business challenge.
You are curious about Recruitment and about how organizations attract and reach potential talent. At the same time, you are not afraid to look at things differently. We are looking for someone who brings fresh ideas, asks critical questions and challenges our current way of thinking. Someone who can combine AI expertise with curiosity and creativity to help us discover opportunities we may not have considered yet.


What’s in it for you?
•    You will join an enthusiastic recruitment team of four Corporate Recruiters, where there is plenty of room to exchange ideas, learn from each other and, of course, have some fun along the way
•    Internship/Graduation compensation of €500,- per month
•    Travel cost compensation if you don’t have an ‘OV-weekcard’
•    The possibility to network with professionals inside and outside your field of expertise, thanks to our diversity of disciplines which you will work with
