Stop asking for experience you plan to teach
Wen works through a role’s requirements to identify what candidates need on day one, what they can learn and what the team still needs to clarify. Participants leave with a clearer hiring brief and a better interview question.
They didn’t get the job. What happened next?
A quick screening process can still leave candidates waiting weeks for an answer. Wen shows how to assign responsibility for the decision and follow-up, then guides participants through rewriting a candidate message with a clear next step or final outcome.
Our third recruiter was AI. What changed for the other two?
Using GenScript’s published story of a two-recruiter team, Wen explores three choices: what AI can complete, what people need to review and where to reinvest the time saved.
