Zoom Meeting
Agenda:

This exclusive interview-format webinar is designed specifically for finance leaders struggling to separate genuine AI capability from superficial resume buzzwords. As artificial intelligence integrates deeper into corporate finance, traditional vetting methods fall short against candidates who possess "AI fluency" but lack practical execution skills. Through a structured, five-part conversational format, our expert panel will dismantle polished resume text to reveal how leaders can accurately assess a candidate's authentic technical and strategic judgment.

 

Join us for “Is That Resume for Real? Vetting AI Talent for Your Finance Team?”

Date: November 17th

Time: 5:30–6:30 p.m. CDT / 6:30–7:30 p.m. EDT
Location: Zoom Meeting

 

The session begins by exploring the behavioral indicators of true hands-on AI application, contrasting genuine problem-solving against exaggerated keywords and superficial technical familiarity. Our guest speaker will dive into the specific blind spots where finance teams are easily misled, identifying the exact moments where impressive technical jargon masks a critical lack of commercial and business judgment. You will learn actionable strategies to audit a candidate’s readiness to manage messy, unreliable financial data, ensuring any hired talent understands strict validation protocols and financial controls.

 

The final segment of the webinar shifts toward the strategic tension between tool-specific knowledge and long-term financial judgment. The speaker will talk about the shelf-life of rapidly changing AI software versus the enduring value of foundational, transferable capabilities. You will take away a robust framework of scenario-based questions and behavioral markers. This will help you protect your organization from high-risk hires and confidently secure finance professionals capable of driving real commercial value through AI.

 

Our speaker will be Nicole Brantner, Partner and Director of Client Experience at TalentFish. She leads client experience and account management while advising and supporting clients through critical hiring and workforce decisions. Since joining TalentFish in 2022, she has worked closely with business and technology leaders to define complex role requirements, evaluate candidates beyond the resume, and assess the practical experience, judgment, and communication needed to succeed. Her perspective is also shaped by 13 years in retail leadership and people management, giving her firsthand experience evaluating talent through both hiring and leadership lens. Her approach combines careful evaluation, market insight, integrity, and a genuine commitment to creating positive, lasting outcomes for people and organizations.
