    Episode 116: The AI illusion: Why recruiters still can’t be replaced with Steve O'Brien
    2025/10/01
    Is it cheating to use ChatGPT for your job application? That’s the question many recruiters are quietly asking themselves as AI-generated résumés flood their inboxes. At first glance, a copy-paste résumé straight out of ChatGPT might feel like a shortcut or even a fake. But what if it’s not as bad as it seems? In this episode of Recruiting Is No Joke, host Joel Lalgee sits down with Steve O’Brien, a seasoned talent acquisition leader who’s seen it all from old-school executive search to cutting-edge AI tools. Steve shares his winding journey through recruiting, HR tech, and leadership, but he doesn’t just stop at career highlights. He gets real about the messy reality of hiring: why some candidate experiences go sideways, the myths around AI “replacing” recruiters, and the overlooked role hiring managers play in breaking or sealing the deal. Steve shares a brilliant story of spotting a fake and explains why he’s surprisingly sympathetic. The key isn’t if you use AI, but how are you a strategic copilot or just on autopilot? The conversation also dives deep into how recruiters need to blend social intelligence, strategy, and technology to thrive. Can AI handle an intake call as well as a recruiter? Not yet. Can it help speed up tedious tasks? Absolutely. Steve argues the future isn’t about replacing humans, but about elevating them, letting tech handle the boring parts while people lean into judgment, persuasion, and connection. If you’ve ever wondered what really kills a hire, why resumes feel more AI-written these days, or how “soft skills” quietly shape careers, this episode is a must-listen. Because in recruiting, the stakes are high and no, it’s definitely no joke. Let’s dive in! In this episode: [00:00] Introduction and guest background [00:54] Steve’s career journey and transition to Syneos Health [03:03] Steve’s current role and team scope [04:33] AI and recruitment: Myths and realities [05:10] Limits of AI in recruiting processes [08:36] The art and social intelligence of recruiting [11:27] Common deal killers in recruitment [13:05] Role of hiring managers in recruitment outcomes [15:15] Automation vs. human judgment in talent acquisition [17:00] The great restructuring and future of work [19:24] Limitations of generative AI and LLMs [21:44] Effective use of AI as a copilot [24:54] Practical AI use cases and user training [29:14] AI-generated resumes and candidate evaluation [34:52] Interviewing for AI literacy and strategic use [38:29] AI’s impact on customer service and job replacement [41:39] Soft skills, career growth, and workplace politics [45:14] Closing and where to connect About Steve O’Brien Steve O’Brien is a veteran talent acquisition and HR tech leader with experience spanning agency, RPO, corporate, and startup environments. Currently at Syneos Health, he leads global recruiting, HR PMO, and workforce analytics, driving thousands of hires annually while shaping the future of TA tech and strategy.

    Episode 115: The Recruiting Ops Blueprint They Don't Want You to Know with Alexa Lane
    2025/09/24
    What happens when you’re the only recruiter at a fast-growing startup? In this episode of Recruiting Is No Joke, host Joel sits down with Alexa Lane, Head of Recruiting at Placements.io, to find out. Alexa’s path to recruiting wasn’t a straight line. She started in marketing and sales (yes, even cold-calling at Yelp) before stepping into a role where she’s now a “team of one” responsible for all hiring. When she joined Placements.io, there was no ATS, no structured interviews, no real process, just a few spreadsheets. She walks us through how she built it all from scratch: rolling out Greenhouse, creating scorecards, training interviewers, and even helping shape company values to use as a hiring compass. The conversation digs into how the recruiter’s role has shifted from high-speed order-taking to a deeply strategic function where quality and alignment matter more than ever. Alexa shares how AI has become both a game-changer and a curveball. It is great for automating tasks like scheduling and writing job descriptions, but tricky when it comes to AI-generated resumes and fake candidates. They also zoom out to explore bigger industry shifts: why talent from giants like Amazon and Meta are flocking to startups, the push and pull of remote and hybrid work, and what candidates expect from the hiring experience in 2025. Packed with hands-on lessons and honest insights, this episode is a masterclass in building a recruiting function that is efficient, resilient, and most importantly human. Let’s dive in! In this episode: [00:00] Introduction & guest background [01:27] Alexa’s path into recruitment [03:22] Evolution of recruitment [04:54] Recruiting with fewer resources [05:56] Introduction to recruiting operations [07:11] Building scalable recruiting processes [09:18] Candidate feedback & process improvement [09:57] Training hiring managers & interviewers [11:29] AI in recruiting: Benefits & concerns [14:17] Red flags & fake candidates [15:41] AI-generated resumes & resume screening [19:19] Assessing startup fit & scrappiness [20:10] Advice for entering tech & startups [22:17] Modern networking strategies [25:00] Greenhouse conference takeaways [26:14] Employer branding & candidate attraction [27:14] Shifts in candidate preferences [28:33] Selling office culture [29:00] Big company to startup transitions [31:19] Hiring mindset shifts post-2021 [32:56] Evaluating AI vs. human roles [34:16] Advice for recruiters: Upskilling & operations [35:58] The future of recruiting roles [37:01] Upcoming events & conferences [38:56] Connecting with Alexa About Alexa Lane Alexa Lane is the Head of Recruiting at Placements.io, a global adtech platform headquartered in Seattle. As the company’s only recruiter, Alexa has built recruiting operations from scratch, implementing ATS systems, training interviewers, and shaping employer branding. With experience spanning agency, in-house, and startup recruiting, she’s passionate about balancing efficiency and humanity in hiring.
