DYM Group Unveils 'HRmax' for Enhanced Recruitment

DYM Group, a diversified company engaged in human resources, web services, overseas medical operations, and more, has launched its innovative AI interview platform, 'HRmax'. This tool is now being implemented for both new graduate and mid-career recruitment processes. With this system, DYM aims to visualize candidates' latent abilities while significantly reducing the workload of hiring managers, marking a step towards more efficient recruitment methods.

Addressing Recruitment Challenges in a Seller's Market

Japan's recruitment market has recently been described as a 'super seller's market', representing the difficulties companies face in securing top talent. The declining labor force due to an aging population and low birth rates, coupled with the rise in online interviews, have resulted in increased pressure on interviewers. This has led to challenges including an increase in assessment burdens, rising work hours, and a more subjective evaluation process.

To combat these issues, DYM has implemented 'HRmax', which utilizes a unique algorithm based on its proprietary 'Iceberg Model'. This model is trained on over 5 million interview data points from 8,000 companies, allowing it to quantify and visualize not just surface skills but also latent abilities such as cognitive skills, teamwork, and eagerness to learn. By alleviating some of the burdens during initial screenings, interviewers can dedicate more effort to the final interviews, focusing on deeper discussions to assess alignment with the company's culture and values.

The Advantages of Implementing 'HRmax'

DYM anticipates several benefits from utilizing 'HRmax' for internal recruitment:

• - Reduced variability in assessment among different interviewers, leading to more fair and reliable hiring decisions.
• - A significant decrease in man-hours spent on initial screening and interview coordination through automated analysis of online or recorded interviews.
• - 24/7 availability of online interviews for candidates, enabling swift decision-making in capturing top talent.
• - Insights gained throughout the implementation will also be leveraged to enhance HRmax's position as a recruitment support service provided to client companies.

Future Prospects and Industry Standardization Efforts

Looking ahead, DYM plans to expand the adoption of HRmax, particularly among large enterprises and local governments, as well as multi-departmental corporations. The efficiency and accuracy model demonstrated within DYM will be promoted as a new industry standard.

Overview of HRmax

HRmax allows candidates to participate in video interviews via their smartphones or computers, leveraging AI to analyze various factors, including speech content, voice intonation, facial expressions, eye movement, and consistency. Results from these analyses can quantify candidates' latent capacities and suitability, aiding in hiring decisions and predicting future performance. Furthermore, HRmax is equipped with features like fraud prevention mechanisms, 24-hour online access, and data reporting capabilities.
