          • Quotes:

            “Hiring has never changed. The process itself never changes, right? They talk about disruption … but the actual transformation of the recruiting process really has remained consistent since the 1950s, when the CV was born or the resume was born.”

            “[An interview] is a change management tool. This is not your traditional data collection compliance application anymore. So that is the initial purpose of AI, and it's going to continue to build itself out so that it becomes much more effective in decision support.”
