Turn AI into a Practical Advantage for Talent Acquisition
AI is rapidly changing how Talent Acquisition teams work, evaluate technology, and design recruiting processes. This workshop gives your team the knowledge and practical tools to understand these developments, identify valuable use cases, and apply AI confidently within your own organization.
Together, we explore how AI, Large Language Models, and AI Agents work, build practical assistants and workflows using existing tools, and develop a structured approach for evaluating AI vendors. You leave with a clearer AI strategy, applicable solutions, and the confidence to make technology decisions based on business value rather than market hype.
Why Do This Workshop?
Artificial Intelligence is changing Talent Acquisition faster than most teams can keep up. New vendors, AI agents, and automation tools appear every week, making it difficult to separate real business value from marketing hype.
This workshop introduces AI from a Talent Acquisition perspective. You’ll learn how AI, LLMs and AI Agents actually work, where they create value across the recruiting process, and how to build practical AI solutions using the tools you already have.
The result is a team that understands AI well enough to make smarter technology decisions, automate work safely, and confidently select the right AI partners.
