Artificial Intelligence (IA) is a broad term that usually refers to a diverse set of computational procedures that can mimic human decisions and/or processes so closely that they appear intelligent, being able, in example, to process with enormous quickly large volumes of data. AI is such a powerful tool, that organizations are increasingly using it in various areas, including Human Resources (HR) Management, especially in recruitment and selection functions. For instance, big data algorithms are highly instrumental in expanding the process of candidates searching. However, there are several key questions that remain open, such as, ethical issues and the reactions and attitudes towards the AI of its users (recruiters, selection managers and potential candidates), being needed a greater empirical and systematic review effort of the literature at this level. In this context, this paper discusses AI and its applications in HR recruitment and selection process, addressing the future trends and challenges defined in the extant literature.
