AI & Transparency in Hiring – Bridging HR and Engineering Perspectives

July 11, 2025 09:40 – 10:10 · 30 min Airstream 1

What this session covers

As AI reshapes hiring, tensions flare between HR’s drive for efficiency and engineers’ demand for transparency. This presentation reviews AI recruitment tools usage while confronting ethical dilemmas faced by both sides. Through case studies, we explore how the Hiring Side (HRMs, Recruiters, Hiring Managers included) and engineers can collaborate to build fairer systems. Learn how companies can implement explainable rubrics and hybrid assessments, while engineers ethically hack AI tools and audit for bias. Bridging code and ethics, we’ll map a future where AI enhances and not replaces human judgment, ensuring hiring is both scalable and equitable.

Agenda: The AI Hiring Landscape: Tools, Trends, and Tensions Transparency Matters: Why Engineers and HR Clash/Collaborate How Companies Use AI to Evaluates Code vs. How Engineers Game It Case Studies: Wins and Fails of the Industry Possible Solutions and Key Takeaways
