How AI Tools Are Transforming Recruiting and HR Management in the Life Sciences Industry

On September 23, 2025, we hosted our first interactive webinar on the topic:
“AI in HR – Practical Applications for Life Sciences.”
In a compact 40-minute online session, Dr. Irmtraud Lang and Daniel Fankhauser shared insights on how HR professionals, recruiters, and managers can effectively integrate Artificial Intelligence into their day-to-day recruiting processes.

The response was overwhelmingly positive, with participants particularly appreciating the strong practical relevance and the immediate applicability of the content.

Key Topics and Highlights

The webinar showcased real-world examples of how AI can ease the workload of HR teams while improving decision-making quality:

• Designing smarter job profiles and postings - How to use prompts to quickly and precisely formulate job descriptions – from responsibilities to target group language.
• Understanding target groups and market trends - Tools like Perplexity or ChatGPT can generate industry, salary, and competitor analyses within minutes to support data-driven recruiting strategies.
• Optimizing job postings and increasing visibility - AI can tailor content for job boards and social media to effectively reach the right candidates – clear, engaging, and conversion-optimized.
• Simplifying preselection and interview preparation - Structured prompts and scorecards help compare candidate profiles, prepare interview questions, and streamline communication – always with a human in the loop.

Practical, Interactive, and Relevant

Together with the presenters, participants worked through small tasks from the provided handout – from market research and salary benchmarks to developing scorecards and interview questions. The mix of input, live demos, and hands-on application made the session dynamic and highly practical.

“Many HR teams are just beginning to explore how to use AI tools effectively,” said Dr. Irmtraud Lang.
“Our goal was to lower the threshold and show how AI can truly support everyday HR work – without requiring technical expertise.”

What’s Next

Due to high demand, a follow-up webinar is already in the works. The next session will dive deeper into topics such as talent matching, AI-assisted communication, and ethical considerations in recruiting.
