Awarded for innovative use of AI in recruitment

Amada Holdings announced on August 21, 2018, that it received the Encouragement Award at the third HR Technology Award. This award recognizes outstanding initiatives that utilize artificial intelligence (AI) in areas such as recruitment, education, and labor management.

AI-driven resume analysis for fair and efficient selection

In April 2018, Amada Holdings introduced AI technology to its new graduate recruitment process. The AI analyzes each applicant’s resume to assess qualities and potential that are often difficult for human resource staff to evaluate based solely on experience and intuition.

The company was recognized for its comprehensive use of AI-generated analysis throughout the entire recruitment selection process, improving both fairness and efficiency.
