    AI and hiring: Why transparency matters for finding future talent and the candidate experience | Ellie Long, Rolls Royce

    Play Episode Listen Later Mar 19, 2025 47:57


    You may have seen the big debate on LinkedIn - should we share interview questions with candidates beforehand?For Ellie Long, Global Head of Emerging Talent at Rolls-Royce, the answer is clear. While it's a bold move, she believes it's the right one. Her philosophy? Set candidates up for success so they can showcase their skills and potential. And in the age of AI, this has never been more important. That's because many candidates assume AI will give them an edge—but in reality, it might be holding them back.With a background in Early Careers at E.ON UK, Ellie is passionate about using emerging talent as a strategic leaver focused on future skills and capabilities. In this episode, she shares why supporting all candidates is crucial — especially in the AI era — and how focusing on potential, not polish, is the key to building future talent.Join host Robert Newry and guest Ellie Long as they discuss:

    Most employers now recognise that banning or detecting AI usage is more likely to damage diversity than help your process. But how exactly do you embrace AI? And how can you clearly communicate this with applicants? HMRC recently published, ‘Understanding Artificial Intelligence in your job application' for candidates, which provides clear guidelines on exactly how to use AI within the application process while also demonstrating how important it is for applicants to stand out, because ‘using a generic AI-generated response isn't going to separate you from the crowd”.Siobhan Stericker, Talent Insights and AI Lead at HM Revenue and Customs is the brains behind these new guidelines that are challenging the way that organisations view candidate usage of AI. Siobhan is responsible for leading an innovative team at HMRC who alongside these innovative guidelines are exploring how they can leverage GenAI within the whole of the talent acquisition process, while also upskilling the wider teams in their use of GenAI to improve efficiencies. She's joining us to talk through why and how she created this new guidance that's helping candidates understand what exactly responsible usage of AI is, and more importantly, the benefit for them of leaving generic responses behind.

    AI has brought about a DDoS attack on recruitment. What do we do about it? Martyn Redstone talks shifting power dynamics, assessing AI capability, and the cost of inaction.If your technical team faced a DDoS attack — an onslaught of overwhelming traffic designed to disrupt your systems — how would you expect them to respond? Would you expect them to freeze and do nothing? Or take proactive steps to address the vulnerability and reimagine their processes to not only prevent future risks, but to make their processes better?According to Martyn Redstone, founder of PPLBots and co-founder of genAssess, AI tools are doing to recruitment what a DDoS attack does to company websites — overloading them with applications and upending the balance of power between recruiters and candidates. With new AI tools enabling mass-personalised applications submitted at scale, recruitment have to do something differently if they stand any chance of managing candidate volumes while fairly assessing their true capability. And reclaiming control of the recruitment process. In this week's episode of the TA Disruptors podcast, Martyn joins Robert as they discuss:

    Since the COVID pandemic accelerated reliance on unsupervised ‘take-home exams', the education system has found itself with a fundamental problem –– one which has only been exacerbated by the recent rise in easily-accessible AI tools like ChatGPT. And new research shows just how great the scale and impact of the problem is for the education system and Early Careers teams alike. Dr Peter Scarfe, Associate Professor, and Dr Etienne Roesch, Professor of Applied Statistics & Cognitive Science, both at the University of Reading, are two of the minds behind a recent groundbreaking study which proved just how easy it is for students to not only use AI in exams but to outperform real students.

    There's been a lot of debate recently about whether AI changes what we need to select for, to predict candidate success. But the reality is that most companies have needed to reframe how they select for quite some time. At the end of 2022, Arctic Shores' Senior Psychometrician Luke Montouri and Senior Applied Psychologist Sanchia Dennis set out to review a huge data set with one key objective –– to understand which skills, competencies, and behaviours would be most predictive of candidate success in the “future of work”. And to establish how psychometric assessment measures would need to evolve to select for them. What they uncovered is as true today as it was back in 2022 – and the advancement of Generative AI has made it even more urgent for talent acquisition teams to rethink how they select.In this episode, Luke and Sanchia join Robert to unpack the research and science they used to update the Arctic Shores assessment model, and the wider implications of their findings for TA teams.

    Siadhal Magos founded Metaview after going through an intense period of scaling at Uber. The business went from 7,000 to 15,000 people in just 24 months. And while he was highly tech-enabled in other areas of his work, hiring felt like it was lagging behind. Even as a hiring manager he felt the pain, inefficiency, and toil of the hiring process, and realised that TA teams must have been feeling this ten-fold. That's where Metaview was born. And four years later, Generative AI exploded into the world and helped him and his team advance the much-loved service they offer recruiters by light years. And in just a few months. As an AI expert with a philosophical viewpoint, Siadhal joins Robert in the latest episode of the TA Disruptors podcast to dive into the big questions like… The ethical conundrum of AI-driven decision making… If AI now exhibits Mensa-levels of reasoning capability… should it be allowed to make a hiring decision? In a world where AI can process 25,000 to 50,000 data points at lightning speed, is the human still the alpha? Which drudgery work can AI take away and which human, recruitment skills have suddenly become worth their weight in gold? If a lot of instances of bias come from people taking ‘shortcuts', is there a role for AI to intervene and actually reduce bias in the interview process?How much do TA teams really need to know about AI to make good decisions about where to use it? If you're wondering what AI is capable of and how it could be solving the thing that keeps your team up at night – whether it's hours of laborious manual processes to try and find high-quality candidates, inconsistent decision-making between hiring managers, or trying to stop your team from burning out – this podcast is for you.

When people talk about the ethical conundrum that tools like ChatGPT put recruiters in, what do they actually mean? Arctic Shores CEO and co-founder, Robert Newry, is joined by Senior Data Scientist, Jasper Wolf, as they unpack the results of a scientific study on ChatGPT's capabilities and a survey of more than 2,000 students and recent graduates on their adoption and attitudes towards GenAI. Join them as they uncover the research methodology used to test ChatGPT vs Verbal Reasoning Tests, Aptitude Tests, Personality Assessments, and Task-based Assessments, and what they found about where it can outperform the average human candidate and where it can't. Plus, their predictions on what this means for the future of skills-based hiring. The usage of Generative AI in assessment and selection isn't going anywhere.
