## 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.

In many teams across Dubai and the UAE, research still isn’t a given. Sometimes it’s not done at all. Sometimes it’s done quickly by product managers or founders. Sometimes designers are expected to focus purely on delivery. And even when research *does* happen… It often struggles to influence decisions. Insights get lost. Teams move forward without clarity. So the question isn’t just how to do more research. It’s what actually makes research matter. This **[HCD UAE Meetup](https://www.hcd.ae/ "https://www.hcd.ae/")** explores what needs to change. From **research craft** to **ResearchOps** to **AI**, we’ll unpack the real gap between insight and impact through a live panel discussion. Expect honest perspectives, practical experiences, and an open conversation with the community. This session is co-hosted with the [Dubai User Experience Research (UXR) community](https://www.meetup.com/dubai-user-research/ "https://www.meetup.com/dubai-user-research/"), bringing together designers, researchers, and product teams in the same room to share perspectives and learn from each other. Stay tuned as we reveal the panel over the coming weeks. The session will be hosted by [Jonathan Steingiesser](https://www.steingiesser.design/ "https://www.steingiesser.design/"), who has worked across design, research, and innovation, including as Principal Design Researcher at MYOB in Australia. If you work in design, research, product, or leadership and have ever wondered why research doesn’t always land, this conversation is for you. 📍 Building A5, Digital Park, Dubai Silicon Oasis 🗓 Thursday, 21 May ⏰ 6.30PM ## Drinks Join us after for drinks at the Radisson Red rooftop pool. ## Hosted by **Human Centred Design UAE Meetup** ## Venue Partner **Dtec – Dubai Technology Entrepreneur Campus** One of the largest tech startup campuses in the region. ## Sponsor Proudly supported by **aspexx.** ## Join Us Whether you are a designer, researcher, product manager, founder, or simply curious about the future of design, this will be a fantastic evening of learning, conversation, and connection.

**Some basics to start** Women we are going to introduce this, we may do a women-only version, but generally we are telling women instead of women-only, just do tag a person into the event. We are releasing a simple web version to test this. Can women be early adopters? [https://chat.whatsapp.com/EaFzeakk5qn3RQGIcnTltA?mode=gi_t](https://chat.whatsapp.com/EaFzeakk5qn3RQGIcnTltA?mode=gi_t) **Important** we are seeing early event mostly women are selected, which means you will show up to an event where women are in majority. women set up your profile here, if you want mostly women at the event then just tag other women. [https://eseek.app](https://eseek.app) 📩 Invite System (Tag-A-Person in) Events are shared through a “tag a person” invite system. Only tagged users receive event details. 🎟️ Arrival Check-In On the night of the event, users press a Check-In button when they arrive. Everyone who checks in is added to a live attendee list. 👥 Friend Matching After check-in, each person is automatically assigned 1–3 potential friends from the attendee list. 🧑‍🤝‍🧑 Personal Board Posting Users post on their personal board: 👗 What they’re wearing 📍 Where they are sitting/located in the venue 🔍 Find & Connect Assigned matches can view posts to: Identify each other Find each other in real life Form groups naturally ⚖️ Self-Regulated Attendance System No host is required. Access is controlled through tagging and invites. ♀️ Gender Balance Mechanism Women are encouraged to confidently tag other women. This helps increase female participation and maintain a balanced (or women-majority) ratio. 📱 MVP Mobile Test The concept is being built as a simple mobile version for initial testing. 🚫 No-Host Reality Check Free events where a host is expected to show up and spend all their time organizing and managing large groups of idiots is not something we are supporting - if you want free - this is what you get, I suggest you embrace it.

Customer identity resolution becomes increasingly complex as organizations scale across multiple systems, regions, and data formats. Traditional rule-based approaches often fail to keep up with data variability, require constant manual tuning, and struggle with real-time processing needs. This session presents a practical approach to building a scalable identity resolution pipeline using AWS services and modern AI techniques. The architecture combines data ingestion through Amazon S3 and AWS Glue, transformation pipelines using Spark on EMR, and machine learning models deployed via SageMaker for entity matching and standardization. Graph-based relationship modeling is implemented using Amazon Neptune to improve resolution accuracy by incorporating household and shared attribute context. We will walk through how machine learning models can be used for name and address normalization, how intelligent blocking strategies improve matching efficiency, and how feedback loops can be introduced to continuously improve accuracy. The session also highlights how serverless components such as AWS Lambda can be used for orchestration and real-time processing. **SPEAKER BIO** Mosaic Syed is a Senior Data Engineering and Cloud Solutions Architect with over 20 years of experience designing and delivering scalable, secure, and high-performance data solutions across global enterprise environments. https://www.linkedin.com/in/mosaic-basha-syed-92300856 **CALL FOR SPEAKERS** Learn more: [https://www.awscolumbus.com/get-involved/](https://www.awscolumbus.com/get-involved/) **THANK YOU** *VEEAM* for hosting our meetup!
