AI for Impact 
Hiring for AI Readiness
As AI tools become part of everyday government work, agencies face a new hiring question: how do you evaluate whether a candidate can use AI effectively, ethically, and with good judgment? This workshop explores emerging approaches to assessing AI readiness in candidates — from interview questions to practical assessments — with an emphasis on verification, responsible use, and judgment over raw technical skill.
By the end of this workshop, participants will be able to:
-
Identify practical methods for assessing a candidate's ability to use AI tools responsibly and effectively.
-
Design interview questions and assessments that evaluate judgment, verification habits, and ethical use of AI — not just technical familiarity.
-
Recognize the limitations of current approaches to evaluating AI readiness and where standards are still evolving.
