    <![CDATA[<p>Will AI replace recruiters, or make them 'superhuman'? What's the real story behind the SAP acquisition of Smartrecruiters? And why will the concept of a 'job' no longer exist in a few years?</p>

<p>Rebecca Carr, CEO of Smartrecruiters, dives deep into these questions with host Ron Simpson. She shares her vision for a future where technology radically transforms the hiring process, putting the focus back on human connection.</p>

<p><br /></p>

<p>In this interview, Rebecca discusses:</p>

<p><br /></p>

<p>- The 'superhuman' recruiter: How AI acts as a 'super suit' to make hiring faster, smarter, and more strategic.</p>

<p>- The radical transformation of Smartrecruiters: how they threw out the old roadmap to fully embrace an AI-driven future.</p>

<p>- Why the concept of a 'job' will disappear, replaced by the dynamic matching of people to projects and skills.</p>

<p>- The story behind the SAP acquisition and how it actually accelerates their vision.</p>

<p>- Her plan to boil recruitment down to four crucial human decisions within 18 months.</p>

<p>- Why "making hiring easy" should be the ultimate, yet elusive, mission for the entire industry.</p>

<p><br /></p>

<p>Unfortunately, Rebecca can't be there in person, but her colleague Rob Simons will be sharing more insights at the Global Talent Strategy &amp; Intelligence Conference. Learn more about the event:</p>
