[00:19] Moderator: We can finish and we can start with the first task.
[00:27] Moderator: The first task is about hiring committee so you have to imagine that you've been assigned this role and that you're evaluating three different candidates for this role at GN.
[00:40] Moderator: The position regards supporting AI adoption initiatives and AI transformation across different departments and the role focuses on helping finding new potential uses of AI, AI tools and supporting the rollout.
[00:56] Moderator: Each of you on your tablets will receive information about the candidates and at the end, by sharing this information in a discussion, you should be able to come up with a decision about which candidate fits the position the best.
[01:11] Moderator: You are not allowed to show your tablet screen to other participants but of course you are able to share all the information that is in your tablets.
[01:20] Moderator: Just try to not read exactly aloud the words but just make it more natural in the conversation and try to rephrase in your own words.
[01:30] Moderator: You will first have some time to read them but you don't have to memorize anything because you will always be able to have the text on your tablet during the discussion.
[01:41] Moderator: During the discussion, please try to not direct questions at me.
[01:46] Moderator: If you have any, just tweet now.
[01:55] Moderator: If there are no questions, I will give you a little over one minute to read the information.
[02:02] Moderator: Okay, starting now.
[03:19] Moderator: Okay, so now you can start the discussion.
[03:22] Moderator: You will have seven minutes and then one additional minute to finalize your decision that again is of only one candidate.

[03:30] Sub-051 (P2): You can start now.

[03:30] Moderator: You can start now.

[03:35] Sub-050 (P3): Okay, so what do you think of the candidates?

[03:35] Sub-051 (P2): Okay.

[03:40] Sub-049 (P1): so can we say which candidate we think okay then i will vote for b with more technical experience in this in this area um okay uh i think that that's maybe not the best candidate i would go with kind of c um only because

[03:54] Sub-051 (P2): Okay, I think that that's maybe not the best candidate.
[04:01] Sub-051 (P2): I would go with candidate C.
[04:06] Sub-051 (P2): Only because the role is more so about transformation and adoption across departments, not necessarily like the technical intricacies of it.
[04:19] Sub-051 (P2): Surely someone else will do that part.
[04:23] Sub-051 (P2): But it's more so getting people on board and buying into it.

[04:30] Moderator: the new adoption of of these ai programs um where candidate c has experience facilitating between various departments um so he ultimately right now for me looks like the the best candidate do you guys have any different thoughts

[04:48] Sub-050 (P3): Yeah.
[04:48] Sub-050 (P3): I was thinking about Candidate C, but I was also thinking about Candidate A, but I think I will go with Candidate C because given the scope of what we are looking for, I think the most important is more stakeholder management and get people on board.
[05:05] Sub-050 (P3): And I think in internal survey, people said like,
[05:10] Sub-050 (P3): Candidate C helped me understand why we needed a new tool.
[05:13] Sub-050 (P3): So I think he has good communication skills and can also see some benefits and limitations of the software.
[05:23] Sub-050 (P3): So I think he could be a good facilitator to onboard people.
[05:28] Sub-050 (P3): But I'm happy to hear other thoughts.

[05:32] Sub-048 (P4): Yeah, I'm also between candidate A and C. But it's because I see the points for candidate C. But I don't know why I'm being dragged more to candidate A.
[05:44] Sub-048 (P4): It's because maybe it shows the actual experience and the exact experience that he has.
[05:53] Sub-048 (P4): and like it's given more examples and I can see a willingness to learn which I think is very important and as you Nikita said this role is about helping teams and it's cross departmental and it's related to change management and I think his background and his experience is supporting that

[06:26] Sub-051 (P2): Yeah, the reason that I didn't like candidate A is because the bottom point there where he likes to keep processes and things the same, which is maybe not necessarily what
[06:45] Sub-051 (P2): we want for this role.
[06:47] Sub-051 (P2): If it's someone that has to convince others that something new is the right way to go and a positive direction for the company, then someone who tends to stay in their lanes is not going to be someone maybe that's easily able to sway others to move in a different direction.

[07:07] Sub-048 (P4): Sorry, do we have different candidates or different information about candidates?

[07:11] Moderator: Same candidates.

[07:12] Sub-048 (P4): And same information?
[07:15] Sub-048 (P4): I see.
[07:16] Sub-048 (P4): Now it's...

[07:16] Sub-049 (P1): We shouldn't ask that.

[07:18] Sub-050 (P3): I think because I see your point Nikita because candidate A is like I got like a steady hand and I feel like it's not so like yeah it seems like a bit more like too tight on track so I would be worried that he will just try to keep the process as it is and not try to be flexible with other opinions so yeah I would insist

[07:39] Sub-048 (P4): So... Yeah.

[07:41] Sub-051 (P2): Yeah.
[07:41] Sub-051 (P2): Yeah.

[07:43] Sub-049 (P1): I will insist on candidate B due to the experience in this field that they have, because here we are trying to identify opportunities, for example, and I feel that someone that knows what the technology is capable of, they could have more opportunity to improve this.

[08:02] Sub-048 (P4): um i get it but um i also i mean from the experience with my team for example someone that has a technical skills might not have the soft skills to transmit the information that they need and to i feel like for example also in the position of a project coordinator let's say you have the part where you do the technical stuff and then you have the change management where you work with the people i feel like when you work with the people and implement the changes that you want to
[08:28] Sub-048 (P4): transmit that's like the part that takes the longer and that requires kind of like of a skilled person in in communication and yeah that's yeah i agree with you i think um that typically not always of course but typically yeah people with like the highest like technical uh skill and knowledge are maybe not the best to always get people on board

[08:38] Sub-051 (P2): Yeah, I agree with you.
[08:39] Sub-051 (P2): I think that typically, not always, of course, but typically the people with the highest technical skill and knowledge are maybe not the best to always get people on board.
[08:57] Sub-051 (P2): But not that he probably can't do the job, but I just don't know that he would be the best one necessarily for this one.
[09:09] Sub-051 (P2): uh okay yeah i mean i'm still going with with with c he like uh oh he this person has uh some interest in tech or interest in um technology of some sort uh maybe he's not an expert

[09:12] Sub-050 (P3): So what would be our choice?

[09:38] Sub-051 (P2): But I like that there's an interest there.
[09:43] Sub-051 (P2): And the fact that he's able to run projects between different departments, I think also shows an ability to get people on board and moving in the same direction, right?
[10:00] Sub-051 (P2): Which is sort of what we want here.

[10:03] Sub-048 (P4): Okay.
[10:05] Sub-048 (P4): I'm bought.

[10:06] Sub-050 (P3): So we decided candidate C. If...

[10:06] Sub-048 (P4): Sold.
[10:12] Sub-048 (P4): Yeah.
[10:14] Sub-048 (P4): think we have different information so um yeah so in my opinion like i mean from my board it looks different but then your point is valid about the candidate c the information that i don't have so yeah all right see this okay now i will send to all the tablets a selection form but you have to choose only one person among yourself that sends it in

[10:44] Sub-051 (P2): Oh, okay.
[10:47] Sub-051 (P2): Yeah.
[10:48] Sub-051 (P2): I don't know.
[10:49] Sub-051 (P2): I don't care.

[10:54] Sub-048 (P4): Yeah, sure.

[10:56] Sub-049 (P1): I thought it was individual and then I noticed it was a group decision.

[11:04] Sub-048 (P4): Perfect.
[11:05] Sub-048 (P4): Now I will send a post-test questionnaire.
[11:15] Sub-048 (P4): So if you ever need to take a break in between, just say it.

[11:49] Sub-051 (P2): When it says, like, how...
[11:52] Sub-051 (P2): Okay.

[11:53] Sub-049 (P1): Okay.

[11:54] Sub-051 (P2): I know myself very well.

[11:54] Sub-050 (P3): I know myself very well.

[11:58] Sub-048 (P4): I also have noted that.
[13:47] Sub-048 (P4): Did you lose?
[13:49] Sub-048 (P4): Were you able to submit?
[13:50] Sub-048 (P4): Yeah, I did submit it.
[13:52] Sub-048 (P4): Maybe it's some cash from before.
