Accenture CEO Julie Sweet evaluates potential employees with a single decisive question: “What have you learned in the last six months?” This question gauges a candidate’s commitment to continuous learning, a critical trait in today’s dynamic workplace shaped by AI. Sweet herself focuses on AI while balancing personal growth, such as learning to bake bread. With leaders like Sweet and LinkedIn’s Daniel Shapero prioritising adaptability and AI literacy, organisations are reshaping hiring strategies to align with the demands of a rapidly evolving job market.
