Ep 704: Transforming Recruiting With Conversations Not Clicks

Recruiting Future with Matt Alder - What's Next For Talent Acquisition, HR & Hiring?

Recruiting Future helps Talent Acquisition teams drive measurable value by developing strategic capability in Foresight, Influence, Talent, and Technology. In this episode, we'll be focusing specifically on technology.

The fundamental shift from complex software user interfaces to conversational recruiting technology is happening right now, with profound implications for how we think about the ATS.

What are the implications for both recruiters and candidates when the recruiting system becomes an invisible part of the flow of communication?

My guest this week is Michal Nowak, SVP of Engineering at SmartRecruiters. In our conversation, Michal shares his insights on how conversational interfaces can transform recruiting from an admin-heavy profession to one focused on meaningful human connections and strategic thinking.

In the interview, we discuss:

• How AI has shifted development priorities

• Keeping up with the technology

• Working with TA professionals to spot use cases that don't exist yet

• How AI can help recruiters build connections faster

• Moving to chat-based interfaces

• Using adaptive UI to deal with complexity

• Ethics, transparency, and trust

• What does the future look like?
