ITPEC IP April 2026 Question 70
Which of the following is the most appropriate terminology for referring to a method that uses AI, IoT, and other such IT for personnel-related work such as personnel evaluations and recruitment with aims including the improvement of a company’s personnel functions and the achievement of work style reforms?
Explanation
HR Tech — AI, IoT and other IT applied to personnel work such as evaluation and recruitment.
HR Tech (human resources + technology) uses AI, cloud services, data analysis and IoT for HR tasks: screening applicants, analyzing evaluation and performance data, placing and developing talent, and monitoring attendance and workload. Its aims are a stronger HR function and work-style reform, for example more objective evaluations and early detection of overwork.
Answer (c)
Why not others:
- •(a) e-Learning — education and training delivered over a network; it covers learning only, not evaluation and recruitment
- •(b) Fintech — finance + technology: IT applied to financial services such as payments, lending and asset management
- •(d) Competency — the behavioral traits that lead to high performance, used as a yardstick in evaluation and hiring; it is an HR concept, not a use of IT
Key rule: An "X Tech" term names IT applied to domain X: HR Tech to personnel work, Fintech to finance, EdTech to education.
