Abstract
“MUCOR” is a robotic interface made up of three small-sized, table-top robots that go through Linkedin profiles of job applicants and discuss the applicants’ information. Robots categorize applicants into ordered levels based on their competencies mentioned. Robots built following minimalist design concepts consist of a cylindrical head and a body that occupy less space. A score is calculated for each candidate and categorized into levels by a model built including Agglomerative Clustering and Gaussian Mixture Model. The model itself identifies the number of levels into which the applicants can be categorized, through the iterations. MUCOR is built for job recruiters who spend more time to find background information about applicants prior to an interview. Conversation among robots and the user creates a Passive Social Interface in which the user does not involve in the conversation, but gain knowledge by listening. The recruiter only has to input the LinkedIn IDs into a mobile application and listen to the conversation among robots. MUCOR was experimented with professional recruiters and their feedback highlighted that the synchronization of speech with the robot’s body movements has a fair impact on the user experience about the robot behavior.
