Recently AI has been introduced to HR and later to recruitment for different reasons including improved efficiency and also as a mediator for eliminating recruitment bias. This study is exploring the ability of AI to reduce recruitment bias and replacing the human factor in the recruitment process in Mauritania. Qualitative research method is used to conduct the study. Data is collected through interviews and analyzed through the use of content analysis and specifically thematic content analysis. It was found that although AI plays a considerable role in the recruitment process and helps in eliminating recruitment bias, it still is not able to eliminate it on its own. Alternatively, it was found that the most suitable way for bias elimination is through the collaboration of both AI and well-trained HR professionals. It was also found that traditional recruitment process cannot be replaced by AI technologies; there is always a necessity for human intervention in HR and recruitment tasks and activities. These findings give the opportunity to assist and direct companies and HR professionals and give them valuable insights regarding the application of AI and its effect on the people, the society and the environment.
