From Data to Connection – Using AI for More Meaningful Recruitment: 2024 HR Tech Series
About this episode
We conclude our series live from the floor of HR Tech 2024 with John Phillips, vice president and general manager of Findem, an AI-driven talent acquisition platform. John explores how AI is reshaping the way businesses of all sizes connect with top talent — and it’s not just about speed and efficiency. The traditional "post and pray" model is being replaced by a more dynamic, targeted, and human-centric process. Curious how AI can help build stronger connections, reduce bias, and find the perfect fit beyond the resume? It’s all in this episode of Paychex THRIVE.
