Unicru Inc., an electronic recruiting company, has developed a product that uses neural networks to allow retailers to attract hourly employees online and through interview kiosks, combining typical application data and a personality assessment test. The neural network acts like a human brain, imitating human reasoning by searching for relationships and reaching conclusions. Specifically, the system looks for characteristics in applicants that match the characteristics of successful employees.
