When Danielle Abrill applied for a sales job with a jewelry company, the email she got in reply came not from a human, but from a virtual recruiter.

And they say, you know, I'd like to call you tomorrow at 3 p.m. or whatever to set up a screening

interview with you.

Danielle is actually a reporter for the Washington Post who covers the labor market.

But with the jewelry company's blessing, she wanted to go through a process that more and more

workers are experiencing. Interviewing for a job with an AI recruiter.

It sounded somewhat like a human. It was not like a robotic voice. In that sense, it sounded like a human, but in another sense, it also sounded like a spam call. Like,

if I didn't know any better, if I hadn't seen that email or text, I would have been like, oh, this is some sales thing that I need to hang up on. You got to, I'm sorry to make you do this, but come on, you got to like do the voice. Oh, yes, it was like, hello, I'm virtual recruiter Danielle, and I'm here to talk about the job you recently applied for.

And so what we found from job seekers who were getting these calls was exactly that experience where some people were like, is this a scam? Is this real? Is this virtual recruiter thing real?

Are they just trying to get information from me?

Because obviously a lot of us, myself included, are getting those weird scam job offer texts.
