How AI and video are redefining talent recruitment

#artificialintelligence

We are excited to bring Transform 2022 back in-person July 19 and virtually July 20 - 28. Join AI and data leaders for insightful talks and exciting networking opportunities. While there's a vast amount of data available for HR and talent analytics today, most organizations are still not reaping the benefits of their analytics investments. Gartner reports that just 21% of HR leaders use data to "shape talent acquisition and recruiting strategies, improve employee engagement and inform other business decisions." As the report notes, more data doesn't necessarily mean more action. However, Myinterview -- an Israel-based company that aims to enable hiring managers to leverage video for pre-screening candidates at scale -- says it has developed a platform that captures, plays and interprets videos generated from candidates who respond to pre-determined questions.


Movie review: 'Wolfman's Got Nards'

Boston Herald

In my experience, when you ask a person what their favorite film is, you'll often be told the title of the film that made the most impression on them at a most impressionable age. For some, it was "The Monster Squad" (1987). A pastiche of "The Goonies," featuring a group of suburban American kids up against the classic Universal monsters, instead of a pirate, the film mixes horror and comedy in the style of those Abbott & Costello Universal film spoofs (some of which are very good). "The Monster Squad" was not very well received by the critics (me included) or the public, which stayed away in droves to quote Sam Goldwyn ("The Lost Boys" preceded it by two weeks). But a funny thing happened.
