🏙️ At The Plaza Hotel in New York, HackerRank’s 𝐀𝐈 𝐒𝐤𝐢𝐥𝐥𝐬 & 𝐓𝐞𝐜𝐡 𝐓𝐚𝐥𝐞𝐧𝐭 𝐒𝐮𝐦𝐦𝐢𝐭 was nothing short of extraordinary. This wasn’t just an event; it felt like a chapter in the unfolding story of how AI is transforming the way we hire, upskill, and approach the future of work. ✨ From the moment attendees walked through the iconic doors, the energy was electric. Conversations sparked from the very first interactions at registration, setting the tone for a day where leaders, innovators, and industry pioneers came together to discuss one thing – the future. 🎤 Our CEO Vivek Ravisankar took the stage with a keynote that wasn’t just a talk, but a vision for how GenAI is already transforming hiring and upskilling, faster than we could have imagined. Insights from Stela Lupushor, Alla Pavlova, and Timothy Lee didn’t just inspire – they challenged us to think bigger, act faster, and use AI as a force for good. 💡 Anand Gopal, our VP of Product, introduced innovations from HackerRank at our Experience Lab, redefining how we assess and upskill talent in this new age of AI. 💡 But what truly made this summit stand out were the deeper, more personal conversations happening across the room. The kind that turn ideas into action. Vivek and Juan, our President of Global Field Operations, connected with leaders across industries, diving into real-world solutions for the future of talent. 🔍 Highlights of the day? AI-powered Albert Einstein set the tone for the day with his brilliance. A panel of experts, including Keith Sonderling, Jada Green, Devin Cox and Chris Louie, tackled the biggest questions about AI’s impact on tech talent, while attendees left with more than just takeaways – they left with a roadmap. 🍸 As the day ended with new partnerships and endless possibilities, one thing was clear: we’re at the cusp of something big. AI is no longer just a tool – it’s an integral part of how we shape the future of talent and work. Until next time, New York. The future is bright, and we’re just getting started. 🌟 #FutureOfWork #TechTalent #GenAI #HackerRank #Innovation #NYC #AIinRecruiting #AISkillsSummit2024NYC

🎊🚨EXCITING NEWS🎊🚨 I first met Maureen Gaige-Edwards, CEO of Ingennicom, almost 2 years ago through the Greater Crofton Chamber of Commerce during one of their Lunch and Learn sessions. We instantly clicked over shared interests, and when she hosted an AI workshop, I knew I had to attend. Her knowledge and passion for AI’s potential to transform the way we can enhance our businesses blew me away, and it was during that workshop that we really began to explore how we could collaborate on empowering others. What I didn’t know then was that Maureen would become a key connector in the next chapter of this journey. She introduced me to Ms. Mesha R. Mebane, CEO of Infrared Vision LLC, and our synergy was undeniable. A few weeks ago, Mesha joined me on my SLAY To Success Talk Show to discuss how she is on a mission to change the mindset of the 40+ community from FIXED to GROWTH, empowering them to feel they are truly LIVING, not just EXISTING. 🎊🚨Here’s the EXCITING news🎊🚨 Ingennicom, Infrared Vision and SLAY To Success, are joining forces to create real change. Together, we are on a mission to equip the workforce—especially veterans and the 40+ community—with the skills to thrive in the AI-driven digital revolution. Through reskilling, upskilling, and empowerment, we aim to secure their confidence, give them a competitive edge, and future-proof their income, careers, and goals. We are on a mission to equip the workforce with the skills to not only survive but thrive in this AI-driven digital revolution. This mission is personal to me because as a 30-year United States Air Force veteran, I know firsthand how important it is to feel empowered and equipped with the right tools to succeed especially after transitioning from the military or taking on new challenges in midlife. This all started with one relationship…and now, through this collaboration, we’re going to make an impact that ensures that this generation, particularly veterans, can SLAY in their future endeavors🙌🏾🎉🚀🎯 Keep on SLAYin' until you can't SLAY no more🔥 #Slay #SlayToSuccess #NetworkingPower #RelationshipBuilding #PersonalBrandExpert #AIRevolution #VeteranEmpowerment #Collaboration #WomanSmallBusiness
