When Jennifer Dunn, 54, landed an interview last month through a recruiting firm for a vice president of marketing job, she looked forward to talking to someone about the role and learning more about the potential employer.<\/p>\n

Instead, a virtual artificial intelligence recruiter named Alex sent her a text message to schedule the interview. And when Ms. Dunn got on the phone at the appointed time for the meeting, Alex was waiting to talk to her.<\/p>\n

\u201cAre you a human?\u201d Ms. Dunn asked.<\/p>\n

\u201cNo, I\u2019m not a human,\u201d Alex replied. \u201cBut I\u2019m here to make the interview process smoother.\u201d<\/p>\n

For the next 20 minutes, Ms. Dunn, a marketing professional in San Antonio, answered Alex\u2019s questions about her qualifications \u2014 though Alex could not answer most of her questions about the job. Even though Alex had a friendly tone, the conversation \u201cfelt hollow,\u201d Ms. Dunn said. In the end, she hung up before finishing the interview.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

You might have thought artificial intelligence was coming for your job<\/a>. First it\u2019s coming for your job interviewer.<\/p>\n

Job seekers across the country are starting to encounter faceless voices and avatars backed by A.I. in their interviews. These autonomous interviewers are part of a wave of artificial intelligence known as \u201cagentic A.I.<\/a>,\u201d where A.I. agents are directed to act on their own to generate real-time conversations and build on responses.<\/p>\n
