We also learn, perhaps unsurprisingly, that Jeanette is far more likely to be regarded as the successful hire, while Steven is deemed to be more like an intern. Learn more about your ad choices.

    On today's episode of the High Volume Hiring Podcast, Justin Olin of Upwage talks with us about the importance of caring at scale...and cohost Steven Rothberg of College Recruiter job search site spends a little too much time talking about Wayne Gretzky. Our other cohost, Jeanette Leeds, learns from Justin that Upwage's assessments are used by some of the world's largest organizations to help them better identify competencies, which are more predictive of workplace performance than job titles that you had with past employers, particularly for those who are early in their careers, applying for high-volume roles, or both. As we close, we talk with Justin about where assessments should live in the hiring process. Should we just assess finalists? All applicants? Before allowing candidates to apply? He says none of the above, and where he says it should live might surprise you. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

    On today's episode of the High Volume Hiring Podcast, Steve Cadigan of Cadigan Talent Ventures joins us to talk about artificial intelligence. Instead of either being all for it or all against it, Steve made it clear that he favors its use if done properly for the employer and candidate. Unfortunately, it often isn't. Sometimes, the errors will prove hard to fix. Other times, they'll be easy. Cohosts Jeanette Leeds and Steven Rothberg of College Recruiter job search site also talked with Steve about his concerns about how some employers are choosing to use AI today such as focusing on cutting costs instead of the bigger opportunity of making current employees more productive.
