- The use of artificial intelligence (AI) in recruiting is just getting started,
- so we know you have questions about how and why we use it. At certain points
- during our recruiting process, we rely on AI to improve your experience. This
- could be during resume review or curating personalized job recommendations,
- asking you clarifying questions via a chatbot or during our interview scheduling
- to improve your experience. Our use of AI helps ensure we combat bias by
- evaluating candidates equally and fairly, without seeing identity information,
- such as your name, or gender for example). AI also helps us better predict
- successful hires by reviewing all applicants for a role and the relationship
- between your skills, experience and likely success at PwC Canada. While AI
- supports parts of our recruitment process, final hiring decisions always involve
- human review. For more information about our use and protection of your data,
- please refer to our Privacy Policy

- Nous tenons à répondre à vos besoins tout au long du processus de demande
- d’emploi, d’entrevue et d’embauche. Si vous avez besoin de mesures d’adaptation
- pour être parfaitement à l’aise, faites-le-nous savoir à l’étape de la demande
- d’emploi.
- L’utilisation de l’intelligence artificielle (IA) dans le domaine du recrutement
- en est à ses balbutiements. Nous savons que vous pourriez vous demander comment
- et pourquoi nous y avons recours. À certains stades de notre processus de
- recrutement, nous comptons sur l’IA pour améliorer votre expérience. Par
- exemple, pendant l’examen du curriculum vitæ ou l’élaboration d’une liste de
- recommandations personnalisées, un agent conversationnel pourrait vous demander
- des précisions ou fixer avec vous un rendez-vous pour l’entrevue. L’IA nous aide
- à mieux lutter contre les préjugés, car l’évaluation des candidats se fait de
- façon juste et équitable, sans que les informations d’identification comme le
- nom ou le sexe soient connues. Elle nous permet également de mieux repérer les
- bons candidats pour un poste et d’évaluer le lien entre leurs compétences, leur
- expérience et leurs chances de réussir chez PwC Canada. Bien que l’IA facilite
- certaines étapes de notre processus de recrutement, les décisions finales
- d’embauche sont toujours prises par des personnes. Pour en savoir plus sur
- l’utilisation et la protection de vos données personnelles, consultez notre
- politique sur la protection des renseignements confidentiels
