2023 Annual
Attendees will learn the 4 pillars of ethical automation deployment in hiring, as well as an overview of the fast-changing regulatory environment for automated tools .

AI and machine learning have been prominently featured in both the general media and the HR press. As more companies look to automate and enhance their hiring process, a set of ethical and regulatory concerns has followed.

Finally, we will discuss the emerging regulatory environment, with a check-list of what HR leaders should be doing today, and what we should be watching over the next 18 months.
