Validating Skills in the Age of AI
Thursday, July 30, 2026 • 11am PT / 2pm ET
Hiring in the age of AI means figuring out three things at once: more applicants than most teams can meaningfully evaluate, a candidate pool where AI-generated applications make everyone look equally strong on paper, and skills requirements that keep shifting across every function.
In this 60-minute session, packed with live demos, CodeSignal’s talent science experts will walk through how real customers are tackling each of these challenges: what they’re using, how they’ve set it up, and results they’re seeing in practice.
What you’ll learn
In this live session, you’ll come away with:
- What valid skill assessment looks like in 2026, and how to know if your current approach is keeping up
- How recruiting teams are using AI Interviewer to evaluate more candidates, without losing signal quality, as application volumes keep climbing
- When to choose an agentic coding assessment over a traditional coding assessment, and how the signal differs
- How to build skills development programs for existing employees that track proven learning progression
- How Suspicion Score, proctoring, and identity verification work together to keep your validation trustworthy
This session is designed for HR leaders who are serious about this moment and want to leave with something they can actually use.

Why this matters now
AI-generated applications have made it harder than ever to differentiate candidates on paper alone, making skills validation critical
Skills requirements are shifting fast, and AI fluency is becoming a baseline requirement across every function
The tools to game an assessment have never been more accessible, and most teams don’t yet have a way to know their results are trustworthy
