00:00:05.400 --> 00:00:07.900
Hi, this is Craig Knutson from TMP Labs,

00:00:08.000 --> 00:00:14.100
helping you keep tabs on all the recruitment technologies from 
South by Southwest 2016.

00:00:14.200 --> 00:00:17.800
Virtual reality was very prominent at 
South by Southwest this year.

00:00:17.900 --> 00:00:19.500
Less in the panels or discussions

00:00:19.600 --> 00:00:22.300
and more in the trade show and innovative experiences

00:00:22.400 --> 00:00:25.000
that brands used to display their products and services.

00:00:25.100 --> 00:00:27.700
Samsung took their GearVR to the streets

00:00:27.800 --> 00:00:31.500
to show how mobile and accessible Virtual Reality 
really has become.

00:00:31.600 --> 00:00:34.900
By tweeting to the hashtag #VRonDemand,

0:00:35.000 --> 00:00:38.900
a Samsung representative would bring the experience 
directly to your location.

00:00:39.000 --> 00:00:42.100
With this emerging technology, companies using it

00:00:42.200 --> 00:00:44.800
have a unique and interactive way to showcase their culture

00:00:44.900 --> 00:00:47.700
and connect with candidates in a way like never before.

00:00:47.800 -->  00:00:50.700
Such as location tours, staff introductions,

00:00:50.800 --> 00:00:53.500
skills training and much, much more.

00:00:53.600 --> 00:00:56.400
Wearables and the Internet of Things

00:00:56.500 --> 00:00:58.900
are always a hot topic at South by Southwest.

00:00:59.000 --> 00:01:01.300
This year the trend being more focused on

00:01:01.400 --> 00:01:03.200
easy access to actions

00:01:03.300 --> 00:01:05.600
versus the typical tracking health habits.

00:01:05.700 --> 00:01:09.000
Most specifically addressing 
speech and sound recognition

00:01:09.100 --> 00:01:12.000
to take pictures or to trigger a search query

00:01:12.100 --> 00:01:15.000
as found in the Sony hands-free headphone prototype

00:01:15.100 --> 00:01:16.800
Project N, a device that

00:01:16.900 --> 00:01:18.300
wraps around a user's neck

00:01:18.400 --> 00:01:20.600
and responds to pre-programmed commands

00:01:20.700 --> 00:01:23.800
similar to the Amazon echo or Apple's Siri.

00:01:23.900 --> 00:01:26.100
Also showcased this year was Thync,

00:01:26.200 --> 00:01:28.100
a device that attaches to your head and neck

00:01:28.200 --> 00:01:30.300
and sends signals to your brain's adrenaline system.

00:01:30.400 --> 00:01:32.100
By using the connected app,

00:01:32.200 --> 00:01:34.800
users are able to energize or relax.

00:01:34.900 --> 00:01:36.200
You have a deadline to meet?

00:01:36.300 --> 00:01:38.500
This app will help motivate you to get started,

00:01:38.600 --> 00:01:40.700
enhance your focus, and relax you

00:01:40.800 --> 00:01:42.500
after you've had a stressful day.

00:01:42.600 --> 00:01:46.500
As the Artificial Intelligence in these devices evolves,

00:01:46.500 --> 00:01:50.000
so will future workspaces, tools and interactions.

00:01:50.100 --> 00:01:52.300
Allowing candidates and employees to virtually

00:01:52.400 --> 00:01:54.500
talk to the internet to do research,

00:01:54.600 --> 00:01:58.700
command tasks, communicate and 
search for things like jobs.

00:01:58.800 --> 00:02:02.100
In addition, the company behind SIRI is taking AI

00:02:02.200 --> 0:02:03.800
and machine learning even further.

00:02:03.800 --> 00:02:05.800
Creating what they call "VIV"

00:02:05.900 --> 00:02:09.000
a global brain that not only communicates with devices,

00:02:09.100 --> 00:02:12.500
but learns from them and knows everything 
in the world around it,

00:02:12.600 --> 00:02:14.200
including each user.

00:02:14.300 --> 00:02:17.900
Enabling developers to plug into and create an intelligent,

00:02:18.000 --> 00:02:21.100
conversational interface with any object.

00:02:21.200 --> 00:02:25.100
Say you don't like your job, it would know your location, your skills,

00:02:25.200 --> 00:02:28.800
your experience, your preferences and much, much more.

00:02:28.900 --> 00:02:32.400
It would be able to suggest jobs you possibly hadn't even considered yet.

00:02:32.500 --> 00:02:37.400
Where intelligence becomes a utility much like your 
water, gas or electricity

00:02:37.500 --> 00:02:39.300
and everybody has access.

00:02:39.400 --> 00:02:44.200
Traitify is a visual personality assessment tool that uses a candidates'

00:02:44.300 --> 00:02:47.200
or employee's response of "me" or "not me"

00:02:47.300 --> 00:02:51.300
to a series of images to paint a visual picture of the personalities within a company.

00:02:51.400 --> 00:02:55.400
Allowing you to filter your data and find commonalities 
on your top performers,

00:02:55.500 --> 00:03:00.100
see what personality types are missing and compare to potential new hires.

00:03:00.200 --> 00:03:03.000
Used on external candidates or internal teams,

00:03:003.100 --> 00:03:05.900
Traitify helps you find that perfect fit for your team,

00:03:05.900 --> 00:03:10.500
reduces turnover and helps shine a light on your company's culture and diversity.

00:03:10.600 --> 00:03:13.600
Building on the growing trend of users

00:03:13.700 --> 00:03:16.200
being able to view more information about 
the people they follow,

00:03:16.200 --> 00:03:19.400
tapp that app was launched at South by Southwest this year.

00:03:19.500 --> 00:03:22.800
An application currently available for android devices

00:03:22.900 --> 00:03:26.900
that allows users to see what apps are currently on the phone
of the people they follow.

00:03:27.000 --> 00:03:30.300
Creating great opportunities for learning and professional development

00:03:30.400 --> 00:03:33.700
based on exposure to content, trends and information

00:03:33.800 --> 00:03:36.000
from the people they already admire.

00:03:36.100 --> 00:03:39.700
There are hosts of other notable services found at South by Southwest this year,

00:03:39.800 --> 00:03:42.100
including TailoredMail.com,

00:03:42.200 --> 00:03:45.300
a service that provides personalized video 
embedded into emails,

00:03:45.400 --> 00:03:50.100
Candylabs.com, which is location based Augmented reality marketing,

00:03:50.200 --> 00:03:54.500
Klaxoon.com, which is a portable onsite interactivity tool

00:03:54.600 --> 00:03:56.900
that enhances learning and meetings through quizzes,

00:03:57.000 --> 00:03:59.900
surveys, brainstorms and live messaging.

00:04:00.000 --> 00:04:02.400
And then there's Waffle from Samsung Labs

00:04:02.400 --> 00:04:06.800
