Are interviews over-rated, is the CV dead, and how is technology changing recruitment? Evan Davis and guests discuss.

What's the best way to recruit people who have the right skills for the job, but are also the right cultural fit for your business? And how do you do that without discrimination? Evan Davis and guests discuss the many different hiring options available, from the standard CV and interview to social media snooping, and the importance of getting it right.
