Through practical displays, it also showed the tasks, tools and skills relating to different professions, from the audiovisual sphere to floral art and 3D printing to robotics, medical emergencies and physical rehabilitation.
Artificial intelligence applied to jobseeking
Participants were able to attend sessions on the use of AI to generate and optimise CVs and application letters, promote personal brands, identify new professional trends and prepare for job interviews. There was also an explanation of how this technological innovation is changing recruitment processes. In fact, visitors were able to see how automated systems such as ATS and so-called Kill Bots work, and how to avoid the most common mistakes when using AI to prepare a job application.
