The research investigates the profound impacts of this technological shift on both job seekers and employers, identifying a central tension between efficiency gains and the degradation of user experience and fairness. Key challenges, including algorithmic bias, data security vulnerabilities, and fraudulent listings, are critically examined alongside the governance frameworks necessary for ethical operation. Finally, it synthesizes industry forecasts to project the future trajectory of recruitment technology, analyzing the potential impacts of Agentic AI, blockchain, and hyperpersonalization, and concludes with strategic recommendations for stakeholders to foster a more efficient and equitable digital labor market.
