Artificial Intelligence Disclaimer:

We will be using our Artificial Intelligence app, "Alex Taylor" to conduct the first-round interviews for this position, which should take you approximately 35 minutes to complete. You will receive an email invitation from “Alex” within ten business days of your application should we want to hold a first round interview with you.

"Alex" is available to schedule first round interviews 24/7 and allows us to conduct a much greater number of first round interviews than our human staff’s (my) availability would allow. All first-round interviews are reviewed by Technergetics HR, and additional staff as applicable.

AI is a tool to assist in the decision-making process and all decisions of which candidates to invite for a first or second interview remain with our human staff. Candidates who are chosen for second round interviews will meet with the HR director and hiring manager. Any data collected during the interview process, including AI-generated insights, will be handled with utmost care and confidentiality. We will comply with all applicable data protection laws and regulations. Your responses will be processed by an AI system to provide feedback on your skills and knowledge only. We want to assure you that this data will be stored securely and will not be shared with any third parties without your consent.

We understand the hesitancy of some to interview with an AI app (it is by no means perfect at this time), but with Technergetics being a company dedicated to research and development in many technological fields, including AI/ML, we feel this is a great opportunity to practice what we preach.
