About This Episode

This week on The Alder Hour, we dive into the tension between automation and authenticity in today’s hiring landscape. 🧠 Points & Pints brings two spicy takes: • Why Moderna Merged Its Tech and HR Departments - after partnering with OpenAI • Why your résumé might never reach human hands—and what that means for your job hunt 🚨 In The Situation Room, we unpack the risks of bias in AI hiring tools—how they’re shaping candidate experience and what companies must do to fix it. 🎤 Then we’re joined by Jamie Leonard, founder of RecFest, to talk about what’s next in TA and whether events like hers are the antidote to the tech-first recruiting age. 🆙 Finally, in Trending or Ending, we debate a big one: Are traditional résumés obsolete? The team weighs in with bold takes and surprising stats. Whether you’re a recruiter, founder, or future-of-work wonk, this one’s packed with insight, humor, and real talk. ⏱️ Catch it now—your new favorite way to end the workday. 📍Powered by Purple Acorn 🎧 Listen on Spotify, Apple, or wherever you get your podcasts 📺 Watch live and follow us on LinkedIn → purpleacornnetwork.com Learn more about your ad choices.
