Tools for automated candidate searches, matching algorithms, interview analysis via video AI or chatbots in applicant dialog: The list of new possibilities is getting longer and more complex. But with all this progress, the same question arises again and again: which of these are really helpful in everyday life?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p id=\"ember63\">We will be taking this question with us to the BIG BANG AI Festival in Berlin in September (<a href=\"https:\/\/bigbangfestival.de\/\">https:\/\/bigbangfestival.de<\/a>)<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p id=\"ember64\"><strong>Between curiosity and sensory overload<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p id=\"ember65\">As an executive researcher, I experience the challenges in recruiting on a daily basis: A shortage of skilled workers, confusing markets, rising expectations from applicants &#8211; and enormous time pressure on the company side.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p id=\"ember66\">At the same time, we are experiencing AI hype that promises a lot: more efficiency, better decisions, scalable processes. But how much of this really works in regulated industries such as pharmaceuticals or medical technology? And where are the pitfalls &#8211; for example in terms of bias, data protection or acceptance within the team?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p id=\"ember67\"><strong>These are the questions we will be asking at the festival<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p id=\"ember68\">The BIG BANG KI Festival will bring over 6,000 participants, 250 speakers and tech innovations to Berlin on September 10 and 11 &#8211; an ideal setting to engage in an exchange with a clear view and critical thinking.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p id=\"ember69\"><strong>Our key questions:<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p id=\"ember70\">&#8211; Which AI tools deliver real added value in recruiting?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p id=\"ember71\">&#8211; How can new solutions be tested in a meaningful way &#8211; without turning everything upside down?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p id=\"ember72\">&#8211; What are good criteria for evaluating tools (e.g. integration, fairness, user-friendliness)?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p id=\"ember73\">&#8211; What are the new requirements for recruiters themselves?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p id=\"ember74\">We don&#8217;t just want to consume trends &#8211; we want to classify, examine and test them.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p id=\"ember75\"><strong>Fancy an exchange?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p id=\"ember76\">We&#8217;ll be in Berlin in September &#8211; and open for discussions.
