Curious About My SourceCon Keynote?
Are you attending or thinking about attending SourceCon 2010 in San Diego in March?
I am going to be the keynote speaker for the event, and I will be presenting on Artificial Intelligence vs. Human Cognition when it comes to sourcing and matching resumes.
If you’re curious to know what kinds of things I’ll be addressing during the session, here is a sneak peek:
- The intrinsic and often overlooked challenges associated with sourcing resumes
- What artificially intelligent semantic search and match applications claim to do and how they actually work
- The limits of artificial intelligence
- What people can do that semantic search applications cannot
- The 5 levels of semantic search
- The 5 levels of secondary/e-sourcing
- What I believe would be the ideal candidate sourcing/talent identification solution
If you’ve ever wondered about the fantastic claims that some of the semantic search application vendors on the market make as to how their solution can mimic a senior recruiter when finding candidates, then you will be very interested in hearing what I have to say about the reality of what they can do.
If you’re a sourcer and you’re concerned that your role/position might eventually be replaced by sourcing software, you will be encouraged by my analysis and supporting arguments that explain why the abilities of creative and investigative sourcers will always be in demand – tomorrow and 50 years from now.
I hope you will be able to attend SourceCon 2010 – I know I’m looking forward to it!
If you’re unable to attend, the good news is that the presentations will likely be streamed. Additionally, I plan on posting my expanded slide deck, including all talking points – so you won’t be stuck staring at some pretty pictures wondering what the heck I talked about.
