RecFest 2022



Deploy AI in hours, not months, and drive business impact

For many organisations, deploying AI into recruitment can feel like a major transformation project – one that requires months of planning, significant change management and extensive resource.

But what if meaningful results could be achieved far more quickly?

At RecFest UK, Mark Harman, Global Head of Recruitment Operations & Transformation at Wise, and Sam Berthoud, VP of Talent Solutions at hackajob, share how Wise deployed an AI sourcing agent to improve funnel quality across some of its most challenging engineering, product and operations hiring.

A practitioner-led case study

Rather than focusing on theory or future possibilities, this session centres on a real-world implementation.

Mark Harman offers an honest account of how the AI sourcing agent was introduced, including the outcomes achieved and the data behind them. The session also explores how the deployment was delivered with no formal change programme and minimal additional lift for the recruitment team.

For talent acquisition leaders looking to understand what AI adoption can look like in practice, this case study provides an opportunity to hear directly from practitioners who have been through the process.

Watch the full RecFest UK session to hear Mark Harman and Sam Berthoud discuss Wise’s approach to deploying AI quickly, improving funnel quality and the lessons learned along the way.
