This Week in Talent (18 Jul)

Here’s what we found for you this week – a comprehensive discussion paper on ethics and framework for using AI in Australia, an excellent recap by a first-time attendee at the ATC2019, strategies on how you can demonstrate the value of effective recruitment to your hiring managers, and more!
Enjoy these musings!
