12 months ago, most people had not heard of Generative AI and now most people have explored it in some way. In this session, we have three groups of speakers that will share specific insights on Generative AI.

  • Kevin Wheeler: What is Generative Ai, where is it headed, the Upside and the Downside
  • Paul Martin: Learn the art of optimising interactions with generative AI, and envision the potential of these virtual allies in redefining your recruitment outcomes.
  • Olga Barrett & Pavel Gimelberg: Taking Generative AI to a whole new level, EPAM’s APAC TA Team led a R&D project to develop an inhouse Generative AI solution that sits on top of their primary Sourcing tool. This innovative project aims to streamline candidate sourcing and outreach and preliminary results are showing that it boosts Recruiter and Sourcer productivity by up to 35%.  Olga and Pavel will guide you through the journey from Idea to Proof of Concept (POC) and our Global Rollout.
