Career Assistant

A career assistant, or coach, is a form of AI chatbot that helps associates identify new jobs and career opportunities within their current companies.

Career assistant chatbots are relatively new, but given the strong results that some of the products have delivered, we expect there to be strong adoption. We expect two approaches to emerge. First, enterprises will develop their own homegrown career assistants, which will then give way to off-the-shelf offerings from HR and talent management providers.
