## About the webinar

Assessing genuine candidate capability, rather than AI-assisted presentation, is becoming a core recruiter skill.

In this 20-minute session, Charlotte Clarke (Eploy) and Greg Dunbar (Hubert) discuss what the rise in AI-written applications looks like in practice, why "using AI to detect AI" can miss the point and what capability assessment looks like when the CV stops being a reliable signal. They’ll also share how teams are responding to it.

### Takeaways

- A new challenge in the top-five list. Why it's risen so fast, and which sectors are hit hardest.
- The wrong question. Why “how do we detect AI?” leads recruiters astray.
- The right question. What it means to assess what AI can't fake.
- Workflow shift. Where capability actually shows up – and how to measure.
