Gail Blum is a star, she is the manager and performs the Talent Acquisition Operations at NBCUniversal and she had started during October 2016. As performing talent search, you might be thinking how does Blum search through hundreds of resumes? Blum uses a software called IBM Watson, which helps users who navigate the website and are career exploring, to help them find more roles in the website. Another way, which it helps through is by scanning through the resume to match some of the keywords the candidate might search. Blum also learned many important lessons throughout her journey using AI, some of which are that AI is a complement to the recruiting process, and recruiting also starts with the strong foundation beforehand. Advice Blum would give women are, is to not be afraid of taking chances, a path can take you somewhere which is unexpected, and if you're too focused on the traditional way, you might miss out on an amazing opportunity. Previously, Blum was also a recruiter for Kaleida Health, and was the Manager for Employment Operations, she has been in the company for 5 years in the past. Kaleida had attended State University of New York at Buffalo and had gotten her MBA in Human Resources.
