Description

This follow-up session takes a hands-on approach to applying AI in real HR work. Participants will explore proven workflows that can be implemented immediately, with a focus on enhancing existing systems and platforms they already use. No technical background is required.

What you will learn:

  • Recruiting: Use AI to remove bias from job descriptions, steamline and personalize outreach, and analyze candidate fit.
  • Retention: Identify engagement risks and build proactive strategies for employee growth and development.
  • Workforce Strategy: Use your own data, even if imperfect, to uncover hidden talent pipelines and improve forecasting.

Zach will demonstrate how these AI-driven approaches can integrate seamlessly into the Arcoro ecosystem, helping HR teams unlock more value and efficiency from their existing tools and data. Participants will leave with prompt templates, workflow examples, and the confidence to start using AI right away.
