The bottom line

Roughly 70% of the work in Select and reject candidates is information-shaped — already within reach of AI delivery. The question here is not whether it shifts, but which tasks go first and who staffs the residual.

Why: The process falls under the HR lens 'Recruit, source, and select employees', a category generally anchored in the 0.4–0.7 hybrid range. Because there are no seeded occupations, I relied on the process description: the specific tasks of evaluating test performance and making approve/reject decisions are heavily information-based (often managed via ATS software), pushing this workflow to the absolute top edge of the hybrid band.
