Thinking about implementing a bot? well there are no shortcuts, you do need to teach it & your data & processes have to be top notch in cleanliness. Your legal/procurement/IT teams are going to slow you down #atc2019

But at the end of the day, it’s about humans after all 🙂

Most AI is a supervised learning systems, data, rules and teachers #atc2019

Recruiter experience is everything! Totally agree @jamesielliott been going on about that for years. Everything falls down with unhappy recruiters #ATC2019

Did you know we are still not getting Candidate Experience right?

Candidate journey has changed in the digital era but the recruiter journey has not to adapt to the casual candidate #ATC2019

Words of wisdom

Radical candor = get feedback before you give feedback. In other words think of the other person 1st before you open your mouth. #ATC2019 @antoniathorn
