## AI vs Human Recruiter — Who Wins and Why? The recruitment industry is changing faster than ever. AI is now sourcing candidates, screening resumes, scheduling interviews, conducting assessments, and even engaging applicants automatically. But does that mean human recruiters are becoming irrelevant — or more important than ever? Join us in Dubai for an open networking and discussion session with recruiters, HR leaders, founders, talent acquisition professionals, and AI enthusiasts as we explore the future of hiring. ### What We’ll Discuss: * Can AI really replace recruiters? * Where human recruiters still outperform AI * How AI is changing sourcing, screening, and hiring speed * The future of recruitment agencies in the AI era * Ethical concerns, bias, and candidate experience * Real-world use cases of AI in hiring * How recruiters can stay ahead instead of getting replaced * GCC & UAE hiring trends and AI adoption ### Who Should Attend? * Recruiters & Talent Acquisition Professionals * HR Managers & HR Tech Leaders * Recruitment Agency Owners * Startup Founders & Business Owners * Students & Job Seekers curious about AI hiring * Anyone interested in the future of work This is not a sales event — it’s a practical, honest conversation around technology, hiring, and the evolving role of recruiters in the modern workforce. Expect meaningful networking, fresh perspectives, coffee conversations, and actionable insights. ☕ Casual networking + open discussion + Board Games 🎤 Real experiences. Real debates. Real future.

We are here for the love of reading and sharing thoughts. **Book of choice:** Love's Executioner Irvin D. Yalom 4.25 stars 42,344 ratings 2,261 reviews Love's Executioner offers us the humane and extraordinary insight of renowned psychiatrist Irvin D. Yalom into the lives of ten of his patients - and through them into the minds of us all Why was Saul tormented by three unopened letters from Stockholm? What made Thelma spend her whole life raking over a long-past love affair? How did Carlos's macho fantasies help him deal with terminal cancer? In this engrossing book, Irvin Yalom gives detailed and deeply affecting accounts of his work with these and seven other patients. Deep down, all of them were suffering from the basic human anxieties - isolation, fear of death or freedom, a sense of the meaninglessness of life - that none of us can escape completely. And yet, as the case histories make touchingly clear, it is only by facing such anxieties head on that we can hope to come to terms with them and develop. Throughout, Dr Jalom remains refreshingly frank about his own errors and prejudices; his book provides a rare glimpse into the consulting room of a master therapist. Love's Executioner Irvin D.

Picture a setting sun tinging the **sky with hues of red, purple, and orange, the mighty baobab striking a squat pose against the sky,** its plump trunk leading up to a few delicate flinger-like branches, making for one mystical sight. One Arabian legend says the devil plucked up the baobab, thrust its branches into the Earth, and left its roots in the air. A tree so distinctive they named it twice! Easily recognized by their swollen base at the trunk which gives the tree a bottle-like appearance. They can be **as short as 5 meters to as tall as 12 meters with the bottle-trunk up to 5 meters in diameter**. With blooms in the spring of large white flowers which only open at night, these ancient trees have many tales to tell, given **their estimated age up to 2,000 years!** **Few places on Earth offer such an intense kaleidoscope of nature** as Madagascar, from fertile hills cascading with terraced rice paddies, forests of every kind from wet & rainy to dry and spiny, and a laterite-rich soil which gives the country it’s nickname of “Red Island”. With thousands of kilometres of coastline, the sea is never very far, turquoise and idyllic, dangerous and mysterious, big adventure on the world’s fourth largest island. There is no other place on Earth where you’ll find more **lemurs because they’re only found in Madagascar!** Endemic to the island and evolved from monkeys and apes, they once were as large as the male gorilla! **There are now over 100 species of lemurs**, in all shapes and sizes, from the pygmy mouse lemur to the long-tailed Indri. And while the signature animal of Madagascar is the Lemur, there are many weird and wonderful creatures, from the eerie-looking **fossa-fossa (a cat-dog crossover)**, **colourful and camouflaged chameleons**, oddly shaped insects, vivid frogs, graceful rays and turtles, several species of sharks, and humpback whales during the winter months. **Madagascar, from East to West, from Lemur to Boabab, on the road, the river, and the sea!** [https://vimeo.com/292618272](https://vimeo.com/292618272) [https://vimeo.com/194405246](https://vimeo.com/194405246) [https://vimeo.com/224965822](https://vimeo.com/224965822) **Let's go!** **Day 1 – Arrival in Tana, transfer to Antsirabe** Arrival, immigration procedure.

**Welcome to the unknown paradise!** From waterfalls in the middle of the jungle to banana-shaped beaches passing through a national park , these islands of the Gulf of Guinea boast of being one of the least visited places on the planet and of being that exotic destination and **Paradise that you thought you could only dream of**. It is the part of land closest to the center of the planet - coinciding with the passage of the Equator and very close to the zero meridian. Are you coming on a trip to a country so unusual that few manage to locate it on the map? São Tomé marvels with their **Portuguese colonial mix**, beaches and the laid-back atmosphere in the Gulf of Guinea. To define themselves, Santotomenses use a very graphic expression, derived from Portuguese: they are leve-leve. That is, calm, relaxed. And it is that relaxation seems to preside over this country that is both the center and the end of the world. **It is not a tourist destination at all,** despite how much it has to offer like wild postcard beaches. A very important portion of virgin forest, declared a Biosphere Reserve, with the Ôbo Natural Park as the main banner, numerous cocoa plantations or coffee (known as roças). A country with dazzling landscapes with incredible volcanic chimneys emerging in the middle of nowhere, a huge number of endemic animal and plant species, as well as others such as sea turtles, birds and whales, which are part of the objective of many nature lovers visiting the country. The small country exhibits the traces of a troubled history that began when two Portuguese navigators landed in 1470 in this then deserted site. A story that is revealed to those who wander the streets of the capital (which is called, like the island, Santo Tomé). The parallel architectures of this tiny city summarize the history of the country: some old wooden huts evoke the initial time, when the islands were populated by slaves brought from the mainland. Some colonial buildings with large wooden balconies recall the five centuries of colonization. Uniform, greyish apartment blocks hark back to the era of real socialism, from independence in 1975 to the political and economic liberalization of the early 1990s. Meanwhile, a few ultramodern buildings made of large glass point to the future. The engine of the country's wealth and today constitutes one of its great cultural and tourist attractions: **las roças**. If it weren't for the insidious humidity, the visitor could have the sensation of landing on some sugar plantation in the Brazilian northeast: the same buildings with a colonial flavor, the same atmosphere of an old decayed empire. Also its train to transport the merchandise, as some old rails recall. **The most incredible landscapes on this side of the equator**, with various reminiscences of films such as Jurassic Park, King Kong as well as others in which the jungle is the setting. To top it off with a tropical fruit market, canoes with freshly caught fish, the smiles of the happy people of the islands and a veritable swarm of children jumping into the river to play as if there were no tomorrow. São Tomé and Príncipe will fill many blank pages on your adventure notebook. **MAY 24** Departure to Accra, connecting flight to STP. **MAY 25** Lagoa Amelia hike 3hrs, Almada Negreiros, story of chocolate, Cacau Espace. **MAY 26** Colonial rocas, past and present. **MAY 27** Waterfall and channels crossing. **MAY 28** Santana Islet, overnight at beach resort. **MAY 29** Rolas Islet, departure to Accra. **MAY 30** Relax by the pool and departure home. **Activities:** jungle trekking, swimming, boating, sightseeing. **Accommodation & meals:** 4 star comfy forest lodge + seaside eco-lodge, hotel in Ghana - double sharing. Most of (fine) meals included, meals on transfers (Ghana). **Cost: AED 8370 AED** all incl. flights to Sao Tome from Accra (Ghana). Flights to Ghana from your location excluded. **Cost valid until MAY 20.** Past this date please inquire about cost and availability. **Emirates DXB - ACC** at approx. 3500 AED. **Specifically excluded:** flights to Ghana, visas if any, meals in Ghana. **Visas:** Sao Tome: entry permit + visa payable on arrival, Ghana transit visa on arrival. *It is participant sole responsibility to assure admission to country of destination.* See yah in Green xx Trekkup Crew [Whatsapp 050484823](https://wa.me/971504848238) / [info@trekkup.com](info@trekkup.com) [Find all trekkups at linktr.ee/trekkup](https://linktr.ee/trekkup)
