Tracks: Data-Driven Recruiting

While conducting a 90-day research project on artificial intelligence in HR and recruiting, analyst John Sumser came across no fewer than eight separate companies claiming to be the first in AI in recruiting. Taking a closer look, he found no firsts and precious little resembling AI. The hype associated with AI is obscuring really interesting work being done in the recruiting ecosystem. In this session, John will help you understand realistic expectations about emerging predictive technologies while showing you how to think about the true costs of ownership. There's real value to be gained, despite the overhyping.
