In episode #74 of Hire Smart Scale Fast, I break down how AI is reshaping hiring and why smart U.S. companies are moving beyond traditional hiring models. I unpack what terms like "AI for restructuring," "skills-based organizations," and "optimization" really mean and whether AI is actually replacing people or simply reshaping roles in a smarter way. 

Most importantly, I explore the powerful opportunity for U.S. companies to hire skilled LATAM talent to scale faster, smarter, and more efficiently. 

If you're a founder, HR leader, recruiter, or business owner trying to future-proof your team, this episode will help you understand where hiring is going and how to stay ahead. 

Takeaways:
