Podcasts about ATS

Treating humans is what we do as ATs, but sometimes the human element gets forgotten about in the healthcare system. In this episode we asked Dr. Jeff Russell about what whole person healthcare is, the six dimensions of wellness, and the elements of empathy and compassionTimestamps(14:20) Applying whole person healthcare in an unfamiliar setting(24:17) Applying the Six Dimensions of Wellness into practice(31:55) Consequences of not applying whole person healthcare(37:30) Empathy vs Compassion(44:45) Application of Wellness concepts into practiceAction Item: What is the first step an AT can take to implement whole person care into their practice?--AT CORNER FACEBOOK GROUP: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://www.facebook.com/groups/atcornerpodcast⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Instagram, Website, YouTube, and other links: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠atcornerds.wixsite.com/home/links⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠EMAIL US: atcornerds@gmail.comSAVE on ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Medbridge⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠: Use code ATCORNER to get $101 off your subscriptionWant to host a podcast like ours?

Send a textA CEO takes a tiny bite of a new burger, calls it “the product,” and accidentally hands the internet a masterclass in cringe. We use the McDonald's Big Arch backlash as a springboard to talk about something bigger than fast food: leadership authenticity, executive presence, and what happens inside organizations when nobody feels safe saying, “maybe don't post that.”From there, we pivot into the HR side of real-world messes. Warren shares an offboarding story where a terminated employee shows up unannounced to collect belongings and tries to roam, vent, and reconnect, all while a well-meaning employee holds the door. We break down the practical security risks of tailgating and why a clean termination process protects everyone, including the person leaving.Then we get into hiring and talent: an interview for a finance role that “requires expert Excel” turns into the infamous sideways M explanation. It opens up a bigger conversation about applicant tracking systems (ATS), AI screening, and why resumes are less trustworthy than ever. We also talk about ethical AI use for school and work, and why organizations that refuse to train people on AI tools are setting themselves up to fall behind.If you care about HR, leadership, workplace culture, recruiting, and the future of work, hit play.

What does it take to go from sending 1,000 unanswered resumes to building a platform used by millions of job seekers worldwide? In this episode of Career Sessions, Career Lessons, J.R. Lowry sits down with Andrei Kurtuy, co-founder of Novorésumé, to unpack the hard lessons he learned navigating rejection, building a global resume platform from scratch, and studying what actually gets candidates hired. After moving to Denmark for school, Andrei struggled to land a job until one key insight changed everything: it wasn't about luck. It was about positioning. That realization ultimately led to the founding of Novorésumé, now one of the world's most widely used resume builders. In this conversation, J.R. and Andrei discuss:Why Andrei sent 1,000 resumes with no tractionThe “aha moment” that changed his job search strategyWhat recruiters look at first when scanning resumesWhy tailoring matters more than everThe biggest resume mistakes even executives makeHow to handle career pivots and resume gapsWhat applicant tracking systems (ATS) really parseOne-page vs. two-page resumesHow AI is transforming both resume writing and candidate screeningThe skills that will matter most in an AI-driven job market If you're actively job searching, considering a career pivot, or simply want to future-proof your professional story, this episode delivers practical research-backed advice.

A 12-month guarantee on every placement. That's not something you hear often in recruitment. Lewis Waitt and Jessica Multhauf built their firm, Aliniti, around the idea that the placement is only the beginning of the relationship. Because of the way they run their searches — and the way they support both the client and the new hire after the hire — more than 90% of their placements are still in the role after one year. Aliniti didn't start as a recruitment firm. It began as an HR and organisational development consultancy working closely with privately held and family-owned businesses. Recruiting came later, growing naturally from long-term advisory relationships with clients who needed help hiring. That consulting background shapes everything about how they approach recruitment today. They define the role properly before the search begins, challenge unrealistic expectations, and stay closely involved with both the client and the new hire long after the placement. The result is stronger hiring outcomes, deeper client relationships, and a recruitment business built on long-term partnerships rather than one-off transactions. In this episode of The Resilient Recruiter, Lewis and Jess explain how their model works and why it produces better results for both clients and candidates. What You'll Learn in This Episode • Why Aliniti offers a 12-month guarantee on every placement • How their consulting background shapes their recruiting approach • The role clarity process they run before every search • Why unrealistic job briefs lead to failed searches • How staying involved after the hire improves retention • Why multiple service lines create stability in a recruitment business • How long-term advisory relationships generate repeat recruiting work Timestamps 00:00 Introduction 03:09 How Aliniti started and why recruiting grew out of HR consulting 06:37 Lewis joins the firm as the founder's son-in-law 09:29 Jess's path from opera singer to recruitment leader 13:30 The “four-leg chair” business model 15:52 The retained HR model that stabilised the business 19:31 Why deep client knowledge improves search outcomes 28:24 The role clarity process before every search 33:49 Handling unrealistic salary expectations and “purple squirrel” briefs 38:56 Why Aliniti offers a 12-month guarantee 45:37 The onboarding process that improves retention 57:57 Vision for the next three years 1:01:00 Why the firm uses profit sharing instead of commission Sponsor This episode is sponsored by Recruiterflow, the AI-first operating system for recruitment agencies and executive search firms.

This week on The Chad & Cheese Podcast, the gang proves once again that you can't separate HR from the real world—especially when the real world feels like it's on fire. What starts as travel talk quickly spirals into global tension, disrupted plans, and a larger conversation about leadership in moments of chaos. Let's just say when flights get rerouted and headlines get louder, it's hard not to wonder how instability at the top trickles down to the rest of us. The trio doesn't pretend to have foreign policy solutions—but they do have opinions. Lots of them. Of course, it wouldn't be Chad & Cheese without a few sharp left turns. A certain fast-food giant's awkward attempt at relatability gets the roast treatment, sparking a conversation about authenticity in the age of executive social media. That dovetails nicely into a broader debate about AI-generated marketing campaigns—especially when “people companies” experiment with removing actual people from the picture. Bold move? Lazy shortcut? Marketing genius? The gang weighs in. On the industry side, several heavy hitters are making moves. One longtime ATS player is rolling out a fresh brand and a shiny AI layer meant to unify its platform—raising questions about whether this is a true product evolution or a well-timed narrative shift. Another HR tech roll-up with a portfolio of recognizable recruiting brands has a new CEO at the helm, bringing big AI and SaaS credentials to what some see as a complex integration puzzle. Meanwhile, a job board giant finally makes a major technical leadership hire after years of operating without one—prompting debate about product vision, innovation debt, and what it really takes to modernize at scale. Add in contrasting approaches to AI-driven workforce strategy from major financial and retail employers, a glimmer of revenue optimism from a familiar job platform, a dad joke that absolutely no one asked for, and the usual sponsor shoutouts—and you've got classic Chad & Cheese: equal parts insight, irreverence, and “did they really just say that?” Chapters 00:00 - Introduction and Current Events 02:57 - Impact of War on Travel and Daily Life 05:59 - Fast Food and Cultural Reflections 08:48 - Advertising Trends and AI in Marketing 11:59 - Privacy Concerns and Societal Reflections 14:57 - Shoutouts and Personal Reflections 16:28 - Introduction to Traders and Travel Plans 18:32 - Industry Changes and iSIMS' New Brand Identity 28:41 - The Importance of Execution in Branding 32:05 - Leadership Changes at Employee and Future Prospects 36:58 - The Future of ATS and Customer Retention 39:41 - Challenges Facing Legacy ATS Providers 44:52 - Leadership Changes at Indeed 47:18 - AI's Impact on Employment 55:43 - ZipRecruiter's Recent Growth and Strategy

First up, a massive move in the early-career space. upGrad, Asia's integrated skilling and workforce development leader, has officially acquired Internshala, the world's largest internship platform. https://hrtechfeed.com/upgrad-acquires-worlds-largest-internship-platform/ Moving from early career to global staffing—ManpowerGroup is making a major bet on AI interviewing. They've announced a global partnership with AI pioneer Hubert to scale structured, chat-based interviews. We've all heard the "AI is taking over" headlines, but Manpower is calling this a "Human-First" approach. The AI handles the initial 24/7 screening—meaning candidates can interview at 2:00 AM if they want—but the final hiring decision stays with the human recruiter. The Takeaway: In a world where 75% of employers struggle to find talent, speed is everything. Manpower claims this moves candidates through the pipeline five times faster. By using the "STAR" method for its AI questions, they're aiming for fairness and consistency over gut feelings. https://hrtechfeed.com/manpowergroup-adding-ai-interviewing-strategy/ Next, one of the giants of the ATS world is sporting a new look. iCIMS has officially unveiled a brand refresh, featuring a vibrant new purple logo and the tagline: "Powering Exceptional Hiring." But this is more than just a logo change. They've launched iCIMS Coalesce AI, which is now the unified name for their entire intelligence layer. The Strategy: iCIMS is moving away from "AI as a feature" and toward "Agentic AI." We're talking about autonomous agents that don't just suggest things, but actually take action throughout the hiring journey. It's a clear signal to the market: iCIMS wants to be seen as the "responsible AI" leader for the enterprise, balancing automation with high-level governance. https://hrtechfeed.com/icims-unveils-new-logo/ Speaking of AI Agents, ADP Marketplace just opened up a whole new wing of their digital storefront dedicated specifically to them. They've curated a group of partners—names like G-P, Employ, and Salary.com—to offer AI agents that integrate directly with ADP. These agents can orchestrate workflows, navigate global compliance, and even generate real-time workforce insights. https://hrtechfeed.com/adp-marketplace-adds-ai-agents-from-partners/ The February ADP National Employment Report is out, and it's a bit of a mixed bag. The private sector added 63,000 jobs—the strongest month since last summer. But here's the kicker: the "pay premium" for job-switchers has hit a record low. While job-stayers saw a steady 4.5% pay increase, those who jumped ship only saw gains slow to 6.3%. The gap is narrowing fast. Also, the growth is hyper-concentrated; almost all the gains came from Education, Health Services, and Construction, while Professional and Business Services actually shed 30,000 roles. https://recruitingheadlines.com/private-sector-adds-63000-jobs-in-february-as-pay-premium-for-job-switchers-hits-record-low/ Learn more about your ad choices.

One placement can be a transaction. Or it can be the start of a long-term enterprise relationship. Most recruiters treat it like the first. Brendan Thomas built his career on the second. He started recruiting at 36, got fired after his first $60,000 placement, and joined a new agency six months later with two clients. By the end of that year, he had built over $600,000 in billings. Six years on, he has generated more than $5 million in lifetime billings, averaged $1 million per year, and qualified for CEO Club every quarter. He did it by ignoring the advice nearly every experienced recruiter gave him. When he asked million-dollar billers how they did it, the one piece of advice he kept hearing was to avoid enterprise accounts. He ignored it. In this episode, Brendan breaks down exactly how he cracks major enterprise accounts, navigates HR and Talent Acquisition without getting blocked, and earns the kind of deep access - hiring manager calendars, ATS logins, long-term contracts - that turns one deal into recurring revenue. This episode is brought to you by Recruiterflow Recruiterflow is the AI-first operating system built specifically for recruitment agencies and executive search firms. It combines a powerful ATS and CRM with AI embedded directly into your recruiting process. Less admin. Smarter follow-up. More time spent on revenue-generating conversations. Request a demo: recruitmentcoach.com/recruiterflow In this episode, you'll discover: Why Brendan ignored the advice to avoid enterprise accounts - and what happened when he did How to lead with a real candidate to get hiring manager buy-in before HR enters the picture The three responses you'll get from Talent Acquisition - and how to handle each one When to walk away from an account and the red flags that tell you it's time How to expand one placement into a long-term enterprise relationship Why Brendan never asks for referrals until the candidate has had at least a week in the role How to earn direct access to hiring manager calendars What discipline actually looks like on a million-dollar desk Episode Highlights: [0:38] The $60,000 placement that got Brendan fired and what he did next [1:01] Starting over: $600,000 in billings in six months [3:25] How Brendan entered recruitment at age 36 [18:46] The question he asked million-dollar billers and the advice he rejected [23:16] Why enterprise accounts are harder to crack and why he pursued them anyway [28:15] How to approach hiring managers before going to HR [35:38] The three HR responses and how to handle each one [46:14] Red flags, yellow flags, and green flags - deciding which accounts to pursue [54:15] Expanding an account after your first placement [56:42] Earning direct access to hiring manager calendars [1:03:23] What "uptime" really means for a million-dollar biller About Brendan Thomas Brendan Thomas specialises in finance and accounting placements across manufacturing, construction, and technology industries in the United States. He joined Jobot in June 2020 and has since generated over $5 million in lifetime billings, averaging approximately $1 million per year. He has qualified for CEO Club every quarter and hit the $125,000+ quarterly threshold 22 quarters in a row. He is ranked third in lifetime billing at Jobot.

"Your resume isn't getting rejected because you're unqualified. It's getting rejected because it's quietly failing before a human ever sees it.

What if the way we've been thinking about brains at work is fundamentally broken? What if accommodations aren't about fixing people, but about unlocking talent we've been filtering out for decades? In this powerful episode, Lori sits down with Dave Thompson to explore how neurodiversity is the biggest shift in human capital in a generation, and why the companies that get it right will lead the future of work. In this episode, you'll discover: Why “rebranding the brain” matters, and how moving from a deficit model to an ecological, strength-based framework changes everything for individuals and organizations The four levels of psychological safety (inclusion, learner, contributor, and challenger safety) and what they actually look like when done well — not as buzzwords Why hiring is broken for everyone, and how job descriptions, ATS systems, and rigid requirements filter out some of the most brilliant talent before they even get a chance The difference between accommodations and “success enablers” and why Dave's “desk tour” approach unlocks self-advocacy without labels or paperwork How ERGs can become true business resource groups, and why emotional labor and self-advocacy deserve recognition, not just a bullet on a job description About Dave Thompson: Dave Thompson is a strategist, author, and internationally recognized speaker focused on redesigning systems that support the full range of human cognition. A program coordinator and visiting scholar at Vanderbilt University's Frist Center for Autism and Innovation, two-time TEDx speaker, and advisor to Fortune 100 companies, he translates lived experience as an early-identified ADHDer and dyslexic thinker into practical change.

Kicking our new season off with a conversation about BENZENE IN BEAUTY!??? This convo features the POVs of chemist, Michelle Wong, PhD (AKA Labmuffinbeautyscience), and toxicologist, Lyle Burgoon, PhD, ATS. Is benzene in cosmetic products actually something people should be worried about? Long story short, probably not. IMO the real concern is around the bad science, sensationalism and unscrupulous reporting that drove all the fear that is now widespread... Interested in supporting the podcast?

If you're waiting to hear back… you've already lost. In Part 2 of this deep dive, Jamie Lupo breaks down why most recruiters don't have a sales problem — they have a control problem. And that problem is killing desks quietly. After 18 years inside LHH — one of the largest talent solutions organizations in the world — Jamie has trained thousands of recruiters, rebuilt struggling offices, and helped teams turn flat years into record-breaking ones. In this episode, she goes tactical. You'll hear: • The exact debrief scheduling move that eliminates “waiting on feedback” • How to turn a simple reference call into a new client order • The “slow down to speed up” mindset that increases placement ratios • The flat desk reset framework you can implement Monday morning • Why only a small percentage of recruiters truly control their process • How to transform transactional recruiting into revenue-driven recruiting This isn't about grinding harder. It's about guiding the process. Scheduling feedback before interviews happen. Clearing candidates properly before submission. Using references as a business development engine. Doing more with the work you already have to do. If you want to scale a recruiting firm, strengthen your sales skills, and increase your placement velocity — this episode is your execution blueprint.

Most recruiters think they have a sales problem.  Jamie Lupo says they actually have an interview problem — and it's costing them clients.  After 18 years inside LHH, one of the largest talent solutions organizations in the world, Jamie trained teams across the country, rebuilt struggling offices, and watched thousands of recruiters win… or quietly fail.  Her diagnosis is blunt:  If you're “waiting to hear back,” you've already lost control of the process. This is Part 1 of a 2-part series breaking down the fundamentals that separate average recruiters from elite billers. Jamie shares how she survived a recession as the only recruiter left in her office… how she accidentally became one of the top sales producers in the company… and why old-school recruiting strategies are now outperforming tech-heavy desks.  And if this conversation hits, Jamie is going deeper live at the This Is Your Year Recruiter Summit. Register here: https://this-is-your-year-recruiter-summit.heysummit.com/ If your desk is flat… if clients are ghosting… if submissions aren't converting… this episode is your reset.  In Part 1, you'll learn: • The real reason clients don't call recruiters back • The difference between a prescreen and a revenue-driving interview • Why transparency not honesty unlocks referrals and trust • The mindset that helped Jamie win during a downturn • Why most recruiters are selling staffing instead of solutions • The early interview shift that dramatically increases placement ratios Jamie doesn't teach hacks. She teaches fundamentals that compound. Ask better questions. Control your calendar. Lead the process instead of reacting to it.   In Part 2, we go deeper into client control, business development systems, and the exact revenue activators recruiters can implement immediately. If you're serious about scaling a recruiting desk, strengthening your sales skills, and building a firm that performs in any market — press play now.

THE AI IN HIRING REPORT 2026   AI now shapes how candidates are discovered, evaluated, progressed, and hired. What began as productivity tooling has become a decision-making layer across the hiring funnel, influencing speed, fairness, quality, and outcomes at scale. As adoption accelerates, the focus has shifted from novelty to impact: what AI is actually doing inside hiring workflows, where it adds value, and where risk is emerging. This session brings those realities into the open, grounded in fresh data from Greenhouse's 2026 report on the state of AI in recruitment.   The report investigates AI use across the full hiring funnel, including: • Attraction & employer branding – how AI shapes job ads, messaging, and candidate reach • Sourcing – automation, matching, and talent rediscovery inside ATS platforms • Screening & shortlisting – CV parsing, skills inference, and early-stage decision support • Assessment & interviewing – structured interviews, note-taking, and signal consistency • Candidate experience – communication, feedback loops, and process transparency • Hiring decisions - how are candidates evaluated and how offers are personalised and shaped.   All this and more on Brainfood Live On Air.   We're on Friday 27th February, 2pm GMT.

What if you feel you're doing everything right in your job search and it's still not bringing you results? In today's uncertain market, even highly capable professionals are facing longer searches and lower response rates. On this episode of Finding Brave, we explore what is really happening in today's hiring landscape and why so many smart and capable professionals are struggling. Sam Wright is one of the founding team members of Huntr.co, an AI-powered resume builder and job search platform.

What if you never made a single business development cold call and still billed almost a million dollars in your first 18 months solo? That's not a hypothetical. That's exactly what happened when one recruiter bet everything on owning his niche and letting LinkedIn do the selling for him. Most recruiters are taught to smile, dial, and grind through cold BD calls to build a book of business. This episode flips that model completely. You'll hear the exact framework behind a recruiter who walked away from his entire book of business, announced his new firm on LinkedIn, and had 3 new clients reach out within 48 hours — without picking up the phone. If you're building inbound demand, escaping the cold-call hamster wheel, or creating a recruiting brand that sells for you, this is your blueprint. What You'll Learn The 3-pillar "Civil Recruiter Brand Model" for building a self-sustaining recruiting business without traditional BD callsWhy guarding your LinkedIn network like a hawk is the single highest-ROI move most recruiters ignore — and how to do itThe exact content batching system that produces 3–4 posts per week in just 2 hours per monthHow announcing his solo launch on LinkedIn generated 3 inbound clients in 48 hours — and the groundwork that made it possibleWhy he believes his billings would be cut in half or more without his LinkedIn presenceThe mindset shift from KPI hunter to trusted resource — and why it closes more dealsHow he uses a VA to pre-vet 40–50 candidates per role so he only shows up to callThe real emotional cost of leaving a mentor, losing your book of business, and going 100% commission with a family to feed About the Guest Brandon McGill is the founder of The Civil Recruiter, a niche recruiting firm specializing in geotechnical, structural, and civil land development engineering. In 18 months since launching, he's billed $959K, placed over 30 engineers, and built a content engine generating 1.7 million LinkedIn impressions per year, all without a single traditional BD cold call. Timestamps [00:02:31] Benjamin introduces Brandon's numbers: $959K billed, zero BD calls, 18 months solo [00:06:25] How LinkedIn content replaced cold calling as the #1 business development channel [00:07:33] Can anyone replicate this? What's transferable to any niche [00:15:37] 48 hours after his LinkedIn announcement: 3 new clients, zero outbound [00:20:39] "Cut it in half, if not more" — what his billings would be without LinkedIn [00:42:46] His repeatable process: VA sourcing, Loxo workflows, and showing up ready to call [00:49:23] Honest reflection: what he'd do differently to hit $1.25M Sponsors Atlas – AI-first ATS & CRM Automates admin, syncs resumes and emails, and uses AI to build polished profiles and reports.

How are recruitment businesses actually adapting to AI, automation, and changing market conditions?In part 1 of the Build Back Better live show in Sydney, our host Dualta Doherty is joined by Manu Vanderveeren (Co-Founder & COO, Spott), John Bourke (Founder, RecView & Starting Point Recruitment), and Victoria Kirwin (Business Growth Specialist, APositive).Together they discuss:- Where AI and automation are genuinely delivering value* How modern ATS platforms are evolving beyond databases* The role of funding, cash flow, and financial strategy in growth* Why brand, relationships, and human skills still matter mostEach speaker brings practical insight from working directly with recruitment agencies across technology, operations, and finance, offering a grounded view of what's changing in the industry.

AI is everywhere in the job search—and it's being marketed like crazy. But if you've tried using it, you know the truth: it's confusing, overwhelming, and easy to misuse.In this episode of the Career Warrior Podcast, Chris Villanueva—Founder & CEO of Let's Eat, Grandma—pulls back the curtain on how to use AI responsibly and strategically in your job search without losing your voice, your sanity, or your results.Chris breaks down where AI is powerful, where it's dangerous, and how job seekers should actually be using tools like ChatGPT across their resume, cover letters, and outreach—especially as ATS systems continue to evolve.You'll hear real, practical examples, including:How to use AI for job search lead generationHow AI fits into a smart job search strategy (and where it absolutely doesn't)A breakdown of advanced search tactics (including sourcing decision-makers) and how to ethically use that dataHow to ask AI where you should apply if you're feeling unclear or stuckUsing AI to check spelling, expose keyword gaps, and identify the right titles and nouns recruiters look forHow to tailor resume summaries and cover letters for specific roles without sounding roboticWhen AI helps creativity—and when it quietly sabotages your chancesChris also shares updates on how ATS systems are changing, what job seekers need to do differently in 2026, and why relying too heavily on AI can actually reduce intent and callbacks.RESOURCES MENTIONED IN THE SHOW:

First up, a major change at the top for Employ Inc.—the powerhouse behind JazzHR, Lever, and Jobvite. The company has officially appointed Jerry Jao as its new CEO. Jao is a serial entrepreneur who founded the AI-powered marketing platform Retention Science. What's interesting here is that Jao isn't just a tech exec; he was actually a Lever customer for six years. He's stepping in with a "founder's mindset" to lead Employ through the GenAI era. His message? Hiring must remain "people-first," but the technology needs to move faster. Watch for Employ to lean even harder into AI innovation to help recruiters make more confident decisions without losing that human connection. https://hrtechfeed.com/employ-inc-appoints-new-ceo/ Next, let's talk about speed. hackajob just announced that its AI recruiting agent, Archer, has surpassed $1 million in Annual Recurring Revenue (ARR) in just 90 days. To put that in perspective, the "pre-AI" gold standard was hitting that million-dollar mark in a year—Archer did it in one quarter. Why is it winning? Because it's tackling the "crisis of trust" in hiring. Archer qualifies candidates before they even hit the ATS, verifying identity and fit to cut through the noise of AI-generated CVs. It's already boasting a 20-to-1 candidate-to-hire ratio—which is 15 times better than the industry average. Originally focused on tech, Archer is now expanding to support all knowledge-worker roles, from finance to operations. https://hrtechfeed.com/hackajob-announces-its-ai-recruiting-agent-has-surpassed-1-million-in-arr/ Moving over to the freelance world, we're seeing a massive pivot at Fiverr. In their 2025 year-end report, they revealed a "quality over quantity" strategy. While they actually lost 14% of their active buyers, the ones who stayed are spending more—average spend per buyer is up 13% to over $340. Fiverr is shifting away from the "five-dollar gig" and moving toward high-end, professional business outsourcing. They're calling 2026 a "reset year" as they re-architect the platform to be AI-native. Along with this shift, they've promoted long-time CFO Ofer Katz to President to focus on strategy and acquisitions. Meanwhile, Upwork is signaling confidence in its own value, announcing a $300 million share repurchase program. This brings their total authorizations to $600 million since late 2023. Both platforms are clearly positioning themselves as high-value enterprise partners rather than just job boards for quick tasks. https://hrtechfeed.com/fiverr-shifts-focus-to-high-end-work-as-ai-transforms-the-gig-economy-2025-results-and-2026-outlook/ https://hrtechfeed.com/upwork-announces-300-million-share-repurchase-program/ Finally, we close with the latest Appcast 2026 Recruitment Marketing Benchmark Report. The big takeaway? We are officially in the "Great Stay." It's a "low-hire, low-fire" environment. People aren't quitting, and the wage premium for job-hoppers has evaporated—it's now nearly the same as staying put. But don't let the slow movement fool you; recruiting isn't getting cheaper. The median cost-per-hire has risen to $1,053. There's a sharp divide between "sitting down" roles (like tech) where pools are crowded, and "standing up" roles (like healthcare) where costs-per-application are as high as $35. If you want to win in 2026, the data says: keep your applications under 5 minutes, disclose the salary, and post on Mondays. Averag cost per click is now around 92 cents by the way… https://recruitingheadlines.com/2026-recruitment-marketing-navigating-the-great-stay/ Learn more about your ad choices.

Six years ago, Greg Savage was the very first guest on The Resilient Recruiter. For episode 300, he returns to discuss the biggest shift our industry has faced since the rise of the internet: artificial intelligence. And he doesn't hold back. “The contingent, multi-listed perm market… I think that is over.” Greg has built four recruitment businesses. He's the author of The Savage Truth (20,000+ copies sold). He's spent five decades watching this industry evolve. His view? AI hasn't made recruitment easier. In many ways, it's made it harder. But this isn't a doom-and-gloom conversation. It's about where recruitment agencies win next. If you lead a recruitment agency or executive search firm, this episode will challenge how you think about AI, positioning, and long-term relevance. Episode Highlights [00:33] The biggest threat — and opportunity — Greg has seen in decades [02:14] Why the contingent, multi-listed perm model is under pressure [06:34] AI shortlisting chaos and the 14% overlap test [08:32] What “automating dysfunction” really means [26:20] The highest ROI AI opportunity right now [30:43] Four questions to ask before buying any AI tool [54:04] The rise of the “techno-empath” recruiter What You'll Learn Why AI Is Making Recruitment Harder Why AI screening tools produced only 14% overlap in shortlists Research Greg referenced suggesting around 40% of tech candidates have inflated their resumes What “automating dysfunction” actually looks like in practice The four questions every recruitment leader should ask before investing in AI Which Recruitment Models Will Survive Why the contingent, multi-listed perm model is under pressure Why retained search and executive search are positioned to grow The business models most likely to thrive over the next five years Why you need to sell decision-making — not just placements What Recruiters Must Master Next The highest ROI AI opportunity: activating and cleaning your recruitment database Why “techno-empath” recruiters will win The moments of truth that must never be automated The skills that will define high-performing recruiters in an AI-driven market This episode speaks directly to recruitment agency growth, retained vs contingent recruitment, and how to scale a recruitment business as AI reshapes hiring. Why Episode 300 Matters When I launched this podcast in 2019, Greg was my first guest. Since then, we've lived through a pandemic, a hiring boom, a correction, and now the fastest wave of AI adoption our industry has ever seen. Bringing him back for episode 300 felt right. This conversation is less about tools — and more about leadership, positioning, and how to build a recruitment business that stays relevant.

Send a textWhat happens when a global consulting giant decides AI proficiency is the new baseline? We dig into Accenture's headline-grabbing cuts, its billion-dollar bet on upskilling, and the ripple effects this kind of mandate has on culture, fairness, and everyday HR work. The story isn't robots taking jobs—it's people who learn new tools outpacing those who won't, and leaders choosing whether to invest, communicate clearly, and measure what actually matters.We start with the human side: how fast change collides with real teams, the pressure that public targets create, and why skills-based expectations land differently across age groups. Then we get practical. We share how we evaluate AI-enabled ATS options that free recruiters from busywork without outsourcing judgment, and why prompt craft, data hygiene, and clear workflows beat flashy features every time. We also zoom out to the trust problem—self-checkout friction, surveillance at retail, and what happens when technology feels like a cop instead of a coach. Those same dynamics show up at work. AI that reduces toil earns buy-in; AI that polices without context breeds resistance.If you're an HR pro, manager, or curious employee wondering where to start, we sketch a path: pilot small, track time saved and quality gains, reward learning in performance, and set explicit expectations that tools will change every few years. We trade doom for agency, making the case that your value grows when you can wield modern systems with judgment. And yes, we still make time for the real workplace issues that spark outsized drama—like cream cheese gone missing during a bagel drop.Hit play to get a candid, no-fluff take on AI at work, the skills race, and how to build teams that adapt without burning out.

Why do some recruiters win retained work in a single meeting while others pitch for weeks and still lose to contingent competitors? My guest, James O'Brien, knows exactly why. And it has nothing to do with fee structure. James is the Managing Director and COO at i-intro. He's been in recruitment since the late 1980s and has spent the last decade helping recruitment firms move from transactional, contingent work into retained and exclusive assignments. His clients consistently outperform the market, with 96% one-year retention and 93% of placements still in role after two years. In this episode, James delivers a practical masterclass on consultative selling. He explains why most recruiters lose retained work before they even walk into the meeting, how to reframe hiring conversations around risk and retention, and what it really means to position yourself as a management consultant who specializes in talent acquisition. This conversation is for recruiters who are tired of pitching, discounting, and competing with five other agencies for the same role. You'll hear the exact questions James uses to expose hidden hiring failure, why “wow” should be the standard for every client meeting, and how preparation, not persuasion, is what wins retained work consistently. In this episode, you'll learn: Why recruitment isn't the real problem and retention is The three questions that reframe hiring failure for clients How to measure retention and use it to justify higher fees Why most recruiters lose retained work in the preparation, not the pitch How to show value instead of just describing your process What accountability really looks like beyond the placement Why retained fees feel fair when clients understand the true cost of hiring failure Episode Highlights: [03:56] Why transactional recruitment is dying [10:13] Recruitment's not the problem. Retention is [13:34] How to measure retention and monetize better outcomes [18:00] The three questions that reveal a 20–30% hiring failure rate [32:23] Why “wow” should be your minimum standard in client meetings [36:35] The preparation process that wins retained work [45:00] Why proposals still matter and when to send them [59:03] Accountability beyond the placement and why 12-month guarantees work Sponsor This episode is brought to you by Recruiterflow — an end-to-end, AI-first recruitment platform designed to help recruiters run and scale their business more effectively.

Scientific research grants were abruptly terminated for hundreds of researchers including those in the ATS community in 2025. Many of these resulted in research that had already been done and was in final stages being discarded. Important studies done with community collaboration are at risk. Neeta Thakur, MD, of the University of California San Francisco, was one such researcher. Her EPA grant to study the effects of wildfire smoke on vulnerable communities was abruptly terminated. Dr. Thakur discusses her experience receiving the cuts, collaborating with other researchers on a lawsuit to restore the funding and finish the research, and how these cuts will affect the future of health and patient outcomes with Air Health Our Health host Erika Moseson, MD, MA.

Why do some recruiters get ignored while others hear, “I never respond to recruiters, but I had to respond to you”? Theresa Nordstrom has spent her career on both sides of the hiring table. Before launching her own search firm, she spent nearly 20 years as an HR leader. In one role, she cut agency spending by over $700,000 by building creative employee referral programs and filling roles in-house. Then she crossed to the agency side. In this episode of The Resilient Recruiter, Theresa explains why most recruiter outreach fails and what actually gets candidates to respond. Her answer isn't more messages or better templates. It's storytelling, relevance, and clarity. Theresa shares why job descriptions don't recruit talent, how she uncovers the real story behind a role, and how video helps her cut through candidate noise without being pushy or salesy. She also breaks down why detailed submittals matter, how she uses AI to save time without sacrificing quality, and when it genuinely makes sense for companies to use external recruiters.
