Our Approach to Artificial Intelligence

Recruitment Direct UK Limited uses artificial intelligence (AI) and automated technologies to support and enhance our recruitment services, improve efficiency, and deliver a better experience for candidates and clients.

AI is used responsibly, transparently, and in accordance with applicable UK laws and regulatory guidance.

How We Use AI

AI and automated systems may be used to assist with:

CV parsing and formatting
Skills matching and role alignment
Candidate communication and scheduling
Administrative and operational efficiency
Data analysis and service improvement

Human Oversight

We confirm that:

  • Recruitment decisions are not made solely by AI
  • Human oversight is maintained throughout recruitment processes
  • Consultants remain responsible for all final decisions
  • Individuals can request human review where AI-assisted processing is involved

What AI Is Not Used For

AI is not used to:

Make fully automated hiring or rejection decisions
Produce legal or significant effects on individuals without human involvement
Replace professional judgment in recruitment or employment decisions

Data Protection & GDPR Compliance

All AI-assisted processing is carried out in compliance with UK GDPR and relevant data protection legislation.

We ensure that:

  • Personal data is processed lawfully, fairly, and transparently
  • Data is minimised and securely stored
  • Access is restricted to authorised personnel
  • Appropriate safeguards are in place with technology providers

Further details are available in our Privacy Policy, Candidate Privacy Notice, and Client Privacy Notice.

Fairness & Accuracy

Recruitment Direct UK Ltd takes reasonable steps to ensure that AI systems used are:

  • Regularly reviewed for accuracy
  • Monitored for unintended bias
  • Used consistently and appropriately

AI outputs are treated as supporting information, not final determinations.

Transparency & Accountability
