AI that actually works: Building next-gen TA teams
AI is changing recruiting. But what does that actually look like when you're living it every day? We're bringing together these TA leaders from Pendo and WP Engine for a candid conversation about what's really changing. These leaders face unique pressure: their hiring managers, engineers, and leadership live and breathe AI daily, which means their recruiting teams need to keep pace.

You'll hear how AI is reshaping what recruiters do, what "AI fluency" looks like when hiring, and which AI tools are delivering real results (and which ones flopped). We'll dig into new roles emerging at AI companies, how generalists can operate with specialist-level capabilities through AI, and what you should pay attention to—whether you're at an AI company or not.
You'll learn:
- How recruiter roles are shifting, and what tasks have disappeared from workflows
- Where AI is actually working in hiring processes vs. where it's flopped
- The one thing you can start doing tomorrow to be more AI-forward
This session is for you if: You're figuring out how to use AI in recruiting without the hype, or you want to understand what's actually changing for TA teams at the companies building AI.
