We all know that companies thrive on data and can use data to great benefit (as well as exploit it unfortunately) but how does data fit into hiring?

In fact, what is Data-Driven recruiting? What does it mean for the candidates and for organizations? Should we fear it? Is it hiring by numbers and how does it impact the human aspect of employing people?

In this episode I, Konstanty Sliwowski, have 2 special guests that have a lot of hands on experience in bringing data to life in hiring processes and have seen the good, the bad and the ugly and are here to share their insights.
