HR Chatbots

HR chatbots are software interfaces that respond to employee or candidate questions through text or voice. They may use fixed decision trees, search approved content or generate responses with AI.

Example

An employee asks how to update bank details, and a chatbot points to the approved self-service page and explains the required verification steps.

What to keep in mind

Provide a clear route to a person when a question is sensitive or unresolved. A bot should not invent policy, expose personal records or promise an outcome it cannot authorise.
