There’s a lot of confusion around chatbots in recruiting. Do you need one? Which one? How much? Questions abound on this technology that serves as a buzzword at every conference and practically every blog post online. RoboRecruiter thinks chatbots are not only the future, but the present as well. We’ll see about that. Chad & Cheese bring in CEO Chris Collins and put him through the Firing Squad to see if chatbots truly are all that, and if RoboRecruiter should be added to your shopping list. Hang tight! And be sure to visit Firing Squad’s exclusive sponsorship partner Jobs2Careers, a company that could make Firing Squad its bitch.
