In this episode, Rudi Bauer talks with Florian Dyballa, Co-Founder and CEO of Aivy, about the intersection of business psychology, artificial intelligence, and the future of recruitment.
They discuss the common pitfalls of "gut feeling" in hiring and how a structured, evidence-based approach can eliminate bias and uncover hidden potential. Florian explains why the traditional CV is becoming outdated in a skills-based economy and how Aivy uses psychological diagnostics to provide a clearer signal early in the HR process. They also explore the "triangle" relationship between hiring managers, HR departments, and AI, emphasizing why the final decision must remain human—but should be backed by better data.
