#87- JCK on Rewiring HR for AI: Building Modern, Compliant Hiring Strategies
SUMMARY
In this special ERE Recruiting Innovation Summit edition of the Digital Recruiter Podcast, Clark sits down with Jennifer Cotie Kangas, known as JCK, Chief Solutions Architect at White Rock Consulting. Jennifer’s path to AI and HR tech strategy is anything but typical. Following a severe accident that resulted in major memory loss, she was forced to relearn not just who she was, but how modern organizations function. That clean slate became a surprising advantage. Free from traditional "design bias," she now helps enterprise HR and TA teams rebuild their processes from the ground up with AI at the center.
In this conversation, JCK unpacks what it really takes to build a compliant, modern AI hiring strategy. She reveals how most organizations get AI adoption wrong, either from fear, lack of data strategy, or tech overload and how to reverse engineer transformation by following the pain. You’ll also hear about her upcoming session at ERE with legal expert Danielle Ox and moderator Brian Fink, where they’ll go deep on governance, strategy, and getting AI right in high-stakes hiring environments. Jennifer's blend of real-world expertise and radical self-awareness makes this one of the most insightful episodes yet.
JCK'S BIO
Jennifer Cotie Kangas (JCK) is the Founder and Chief Solutions Architect of White Rock Consulting. With deep expertise in HR tech stacks, compliance, and AI implementation, she partners with enterprise teams to design scalable and legally sound talent strategies. Her approach blends systems thinking with radical empathy, shaped in part by her recovery from a traumatic brain injury that wiped much of her memory. This reset forced her to rethink everything, and now she brings that same mindset shift to her clients. She’s a speaker, strategist, and someone who truly believes in "building better" from the inside out.
