Episode 420 - AI for Recruiters. With MBA

February 17, 2025 • Craig, Bonnie & MBA • Season 7 • Episode 420

This week’s episode on TaPod is special for many reasons... Bonnie fills in for a ‘sick’ Lauren (so the swear quota is waaaay down) and we speak with one of the most enigmatic figures in the TA industry, Marrin-Boyd Andrews – or MBA, as the 'cool' kids call him. MBA started his life as an ultra-successful DJ – DJ RemixxX - (check a link to one of his tracks in the comments) and then fell into sourcing via recruitment. Anyone who knows MBA is absolutely amazed by his passion and knowledge around AI Prompt Engineering, and he blesses us with his take on AI… where we are at... and where we are headed.

The first time we really met MBA was at the 2024 ATC Conference, where the packed room held on to his every word and walked out of the session blown away and so much smarter!

‘With AI, you’re dealing with a 5-year-old at the start and the idea is to educate that 5-year-old up to a point where it’s on par with you.' MBA.
