In this fireside chat, Ryan Naylor sits down with HR leader and entrepreneur Robynn Storey to tackle some of the hottest topics shaping hiring today - from AI-generated resumes to building a personal brand that actually works.

They dive into the resume chaos that HR teams are facing, exploring whether AI tools are helping or hurting the search for top talent, and how hiring teams can spot the real stars hidden among AI-polished applications. Robynn shares her best advice for job seekers using AI...where it adds value, and where it crosses into hype.

The conversation then shifts to the balance between tech and the human touch in HR. Robynn breaks down which processes should never be automated, which tools actually make life easier, and where HR teams should draw the line with technology.

Finally, Ryan and Robynn get personal about entrepreneurship and leadership. Robynn opens up about her journey from idea to thriving business, the myths she’s constantly debunking about being an entrepreneur in the HR space, and the truths no one tells you until you’re living it.

If you care about hiring smarter, keeping HR human, and leading with purpose, this is a conversation you won’t want to miss.
