Specifically, hiring AI bots to do initial interview screenings with applicants and rating them based on their performance. The Verge’s senior AI reporter, Hayden Field, speaks to a handful of companies behind the rise in AI-led interviews, like CodeSignal, Humanly, Eightfold, and more. She also gets face to face with the bots to see how well they do. Presented by T-Mobile
