DETAILS:
Chatbots have been a hot topic this year -- and recent research indicates that by 2020 the average person will have more conversations with chatbots than their spouse. Bots are infiltrating everyday life from how people order tacos to how they find their soulmate. This is true of recruiting too, with companies adopting bots to help enhance messaging and communication between team members, especially as it relates to the status of candidates. While collaborative enhancements are helpful, this approach doesn't facilitate candidate progression through the process or promote candidate engagement.

During the Fall 2017 MoNage Conference, Howie Schwartz, co-founder and CEO of Crowded, will share how to take chatbots to the next level of interactivity and effectiveness. Schwartz will explain how artificial intelligence (AI) and natural language processing can enable more life-like conversations, delivering spontaneous responses to a candidate no matter what they ask or how they ask it. Attendees will also learn how chatbots can streamline the administrative tasks associated with sourcing, evaluating and screening talent and take away best practices for leveraging chatbots to improve hiring decisions.
