“AI and Job Applications – Practical Insights from an HR Professional”
The seminar will be led by Oleksii Minenko, a Vytautas Magnus University alumnus who graduated in 2019 with a Master’s degree in Diplomacy and International Relations. He currently serves as Head of HR at “Finansiškai Raštingi” and works as a freelance recruiter and career consultant.
This seminar is designed for students and recent graduates who are preparing to apply for internships, part-time positions, or their first full-time roles. The seminar will explore how the recruitment process works and the role artificial intelligence plays in today’s hiring decisions.
In the modern job market, applications are often reviewed first by automated systems rather than by a human recruiter. Understanding how Applicant Tracking Systems (ATS) analyse CVs and cover letters can significantly increase your chances of moving forward in the selection process.
During the seminar, the following topics will be covered:
- How the recruitment and hiring process works in practice – from application submission to final decision
- How AI and Applicant Tracking Systems (ATS) evaluate CVs and applications
- Common mistakes that lead to early rejection
- Practical CV and application tips from a recruiter’s perspective
- How students and recent graduates can strengthen their competitiveness
- How to use AI as a supportive tool rather than a disadvantage
This seminar offers a valuable opportunity to view job applications from the recruiter’s perspective and gain practical knowledge to better prepare for your professional journey.
