#88 - Meta's Leaked Layoff Memo & TA Anti-Trust Lawsuits - Presented by CalendarPA.com

About This Episode

In this episode of The HR Morning Show, hosts Adam Posner and Ron Fish dive deep into the massive waves of transformation hitting the talent landscape. The team breaks down the latest industry headlines, starting with a leaked internal memo detailing Meta's aggressive restructuring and workforce reductions tied to automating redundant workflows with advanced AI. They also dissect a newly filed class-action antitrust lawsuit alleging that prominent talent platforms Monster, CareerBuilder, and Resume Genius are operating collectively as a single entity, stifling marketplace competition and inflating employer subscription pricing. Later in the show, Adam sits down with Ophir Samson, second-time exited founder of Ezra AI Labs, following his landmark agreement to be acquired by Greenhouse. Ophir discusses how structured voice screening can filter out ChatGPT-generated resumes, detect deepfake candidates, and why voice-only interactions provide a much cleaner talent signal than visual interviews. Plus, Trent hosts George Rogers for a "Talk Nerdy with iCIMS" tech breakdown , and Ron welcomes global keynote speaker and fractional employer brand consultant Carrie Corcoran. Carrie shares her inspiring story of career reinvention, radical self-acceptance, and turning corporate pain into gold after surviving a brain aneurysm.
