HR isn’t just about policies, metrics, or compliance, it’s about people. When that gets lost, the whole system starts to crack.

In this episode, I talk with Traci Chernoff, host of Bringing the Human Back to Human Resources podcast and Director of Employee Engagement at Legion Technologies. She’s spent over a decade shaping how HR impacts not just hiring but retention, morale, and long-term business strategy.

We get into the reality of mis-hires, the true cost of poor candidate experience, and how companies sometimes lose their way chasing the wrong metrics. And, we talk about how AI fits into all of this without replacing what matters most: the human connection.

This one’s packed with thoughtful takes and real-world insights from someone who’s lived every side of HR. Give it a listen, especially if you're hiring, building teams, or just trying to understand the real role HR plays.

Specifically, this episode highlights the following themes:

• The long-term impact of candidate experience on employee retention
• Where HR metrics go wrong and how to actually use them
• Why AI should enhance, not replace, human roles in recruiting
