How AI + human decision making beats AI alone when hiring with Scott Parish

Scott Parish is the founder and CEO of HireGuide. Before that, he helped build LinkedIn Jobs & ATS. In this episode, Matt sits down with Scott to explore how AI is revolutionizing the hiring process. Scott introduces a game-changing concept: shifting focus from "quality of hire" to "quality of hiring decision" - and explains why this distinction could transform how organizations approach talent acquisition. From the staggering reality that 25% of managers regret their hiring decisions to how AI can capture 1000x more structured data than traditional methods, this conversation reveals practical strategies for making interviews faster, fairer, and twice as predictive. Scott also addresses the critical balance between leveraging AI's power while preserving the human connection that makes great hiring decisions possible.
