Beyond Resume Screening: Building Human-Centered Hiring in an AI World

About This Episode

In this eye-opening episode, Jim Stroud sits down with Abhinav “Abhi” Chugh, co-founder and CEO of Peoplebox.ai, to unravel the real challenges talent teams face as companies scale from hundreds to thousands of employees — and how AI is transforming every step of the hiring journey. Abhi pulls back the curtain on what really breaks first when organizations grow: overwhelmed inbound pipelines, resume floods, artificially polished applications, and hours wasted interviewing candidates who were never a fit. He shares a bold, practical vision for rebuilding hiring from the ground up — including why the future will replace multi-round interviews with one deep, human-like conversation powered by advanced AI.
