Did you know that according to a report by the World Economic Forum, 85 million jobs might be displaced by machines in the next five years? But, did you also know that 97 million new roles may emerge that are more adapted to the new division of labor between humans, machines, and algorithms? That’s a lot of job reshuffling! As the lines between human jobs and technology blur, it raises a critical question: In an era of AI and algorithms, how can corporations ensure they’re not just hiring, but hiring the right humans?

The statistics make it clear: As machines take over a plethora of tasks, the intrinsic human qualities—like emotional intelligence, adaptability, and creative problem-solving—are becoming more invaluable than ever. So, how do we navigate this delicate balance between embracing tech advancements and preserving the human essence of our organizations?

On this episode of the Career PROgressions Podcast, renowned talent-attraction specialist, speaker, and consultant, Craig Fisher, is going to draw from his Amazon #1 best-selling book Hiring Humans and 25-years of experience in talent acquisition to help you understand the current hiring landscape better and adopt a more human approach to your job search.
