  "AI in HR an Executive Search 
    Consultant's Perspective"

     Presented by:  Jon Halliburton, Managing Director   

                               - Ensearch Energy Recruitment

   

  Artificial intelligence has moved from experiment to everyday reality in hiring - roughly nine in ten companies use AI somewhere in their recruiting process, while states from Illinois to Colorado to Texas race to regulate it.

  In this candid session, 36-year executive search veteran Jon Halliburton shares a practitioner's perspective from the front lines of the talent market: where AI genuinely delivers speed and insight, where human judgment remains irreplaceable, and how the emerging patchwork of AI employment laws is raising the compliance stakes for every HR team. Attendees will leave with a clear-eyed view of what to automate, what to keep human, and how to govern AI in hiring responsibly - before regulators or plaintiffs' counsel force the issue.

  Participant Learning Objectives:

  • Describe how AI is reshaping talent acquisition - from automated screening to talent market mapping and predictive analytics
    
    
  • Distinguish which hiring decisions to automate and which demand human judgment - especially executive and leadership hires
    
    
  • Navigate the growing patchwork of AI employment laws - bias audits, candidate notice, and employer liability for vendor tools
    
    
  • Build a defensible AI governance framework: human oversight / vendor due diligence / ROI measurement
    
    
  • Apply an executive search lens to preserve relationships, candidate trust, and judgment in an AI-accelerated market
