How human resource management is being changed by technology?

After all, everyday life connects with huge databases and recordkeeping. With the emergence of new technologies such as artificial intelligence and huge data analytics, HR department is more or less forced to think once again about their needs in human resource management. There are many different terms that have arisen such as HR analytics, Big Data analytics, eHRM, and HRIS or human resources information system. These all terms have brought their own contributions and parts to add into the new recruitment methods based on the internet if nothing more and methods which play a major role in promoting effective recruitment and HRM (M. Ashok Kumar 2014).

        When there are changes in firms and big corporations, normally groups and individuals are unable to adapt and they resist such modifications as an organizations’ benefits sometimes may have an issue or conflict when the interest of employees is concerned who are generally demanded to change even when they don’t want.  Rejecting various circumstances and conditions, risks and uncertainty thus are authentic specifications for organizations and people. Technophobia generally refers to the issues that arise when new technologies are adopted for different purposed. However, such advancements have become necessary for the HRM region. HRM is affected as a whole along with its main activities such as recruitment through technologies (Ouirdi, et al. 2016).
