Decoding Talent talks about the archaic use of HR and its hiring process, of the countless data the hiring department has but does not know how to use the information to benefit the company they work for. How updating such a system, by using AI in an unbiased safe way, can help decrease the employee turnover rate. Eric Sydell, Mike Hudy, and Michael Ashley use examples to make their point so clear, the facts are all in Decoding Talent, to finding employees that may not fit a mold, but that it's time to break the "mold" in order to advance with the rest of departments that do use innovative and even use AI in their day-to-day. The hiring process should be refreshed and brought up to date. Decoding Talent helped me understand why looking for a job is as taxing to someone as I had experienced it, the job seekers aren't the problem, the hiring process is just outdated, and with this book, hopefully, more companies or more Human Resources personnel can seek to update their systems.
