    The New Hiring Filter [Trailer]

    A resume can show where someone has been. It can't show how they'll navigate terrain that doesn't exist yet. As AI lowers the cost of execution, the scarce resource in company building is shifting from output to judgment — knowing who to hire first, what deserves to be built, and how to spot the people who create clarity in ambiguity. The New Hiring Filter explores that shift through conversations with the operators living it, including Avani Prabhakar, Chief People Officer at Atlassian; Jennie Rogerson, Chief People Officer at Canva; Victoria Weller, VP Operations at ElevenLabs; Nev Flynn, early design leader at ElevenLabs; Alex Murashko, Founding Product Designer at Nevis; and Phil Fernandez, former CEO of Marketo and longtime board advisor. Across the series, they get specific about topics like why ElevenLabs hired researchers before engineers, why Nevis hired a designer before writing code, how the interview process at Canva is evolving to uncover a candidate's learning velocity, why AI adoption is not the same as AI impact, and more. As the work keeps changing, the companies getting this right can be better positioned to build the conditions for their people to exercise judgement.
