Topics include: • Why AI is removing operational work from talent acquisition • The growing importance of assessment and decision-making • Why speeding up bad processes creates bigger problems • Human judgement vs AI-driven hiring decisions • The future of recruiter and hiring manager roles • Skills-based hiring and the decline of CV-led assessment • AI, unconscious bias and the limits of automation • Why the best organisations will combine technology with human expertise If AI handles sourcing, screening, scheduling and administration, what should recruiters focus on next?
