Jamie Dobson, Ian, Angus, and Gustavo unpack how AI is (and isn’t) changing tech hiring—arguing that interviews should assess real working practices with modern tools, not memory tests or “code from scratch” machismo. They also share a Netflix-inspired talent-management horror story and hear from talent acquisition futurist Matt Alder on AI-driven application volume, fraud, bias, and what skills will matter most for the next generation.
