Greenhouse, the leading hiring platform, has published its 2025 Workforce & Hiring Report, painting a stark reality of today's job market. Nearly two in three Irish job seekers (63%) are grappling with intense pressure in a fiercely competitive market. As hiring automation, employer ghosting, or unresponsiveness, and bias reshape the hiring landscape, candidates are fighting fire with fire, turning to AI agents, resume hacks, and interview cheating just to get noticed. Based on a report of 2,200 active job seekers in Ireland, the U.K., and the U.S., the findings highlight how Gen Z, Millennials, Gen X, and Boomers are navigating today's volatile hiring environment. Job Hunting Is Survival of the Fittest Hiring is entering a new era, and candidates are feeling the heat: only 7% believe the market favours them. This intensity is wearing down confidence. Nearly half of Irish job seekers (42%) say the job market is very competitive. Poor hiring practices are compounding pressure in a market where employers hold all the power. The vast majority (82%) of candidates say they've encountered bait-and-switch tactics, where the job they applied for turned out to be different than what was ultimately offered. Nearly half (46%) of Gen Z candidates report that the benefits package was less comprehensive than what was initially presented. Adding to the strain is a sense of instability: one in every two (49%) Irish workers feel insecure in their current role, as economic uncertainty ripples across industries. Nearly one quarter of workers (23%) face employment uncertainty, with 20% reporting they've been warned their role might be affected. Job hunting has become an uphill battle, and to stay competitive, over two-thirds of candidates (63%) have altered their resumes, and over a third (39%) of those who admit to it say they embellish their qualifications. AI Is the New Cheat Code The old hiring playbook is failing. And candidates are turning to AI to stay ahead. Nearly three in four Irish job seekers (73%) now use AI in their job search, with interview prep (42%) leading the way, followed by analyzing job ads (28%) and generating work samples (25%). There are also instances of AI usage backfiring on candidates: while 41% say AI has created and helps them uncover new opportunities, 54% report it's making job hunting harder by raising the bar on skills and intensifying competition. Gen Z is driving the AI surge, with 81% using AI tools in their job search, more than Millennials (76%) or Gen X (64%). Nearly one in five (19%) are even deploying AI agents to apply for jobs automatically. But in the race to stand out, ethical lines are getting blurred: half of Gen Z candidates (50%) admit to altering the skills on their resumes, with 44% embellishing work experience or adding AI capabilities they don't actually have. Meanwhile, most candidates are left without a playbook: 82% say employers provide little or no guidance on AI use in interviews. Only 22% believe AI is acceptable when explicitly permitted, while 54% either reject it entirely or aren't sure where the ethical boundaries lie. "Hiring is stuck in an AI doom loop," says Daniel Chait, CEO and Co-founder of Greenhouse. "Only 7% of candidates feel that the market favors them right now. As this technology advances, it makes it easier than ever to apply, flooding the system with noise. With 25% of Gen Z saying AI has made it harder for them to stand out, candidates entering the market are up against more applications, more automation, and less clarity. "We don't need more friction or hoops to jump through; we need a hiring process that allows people's true selves to come through more clearly and more completely. A more human and three-dimensional hiring process that helps candidates showcase their skills and focus their job search is the only way to cut through the chaos and connect the right people to the right roles."

The Missouri Supreme Court's use of a 2002 dictionary definition of “sex” in a transgender student's discrimination case is drawing criticism. Legal Roundtable attorneys Mary Anne Sedey, Bevis Schock and Erica Slater discuss that case — plus a teen volleyball player's settlement with the City of St. Louis, a hazing lawsuit and efforts to oust the St. Louis sheriff.
When discrimination emerged in the early church, it sparked a revolutionary leadership model that still challenges us today. This message examines a pivotal moment in Acts 6 where Greek-speaking Jewish Christians complained their widows were being overlooked in food distribution by the Hebrew-speaking majority.Rather than dismissing these concerns or implementing top-down solutions, the apostles responded with remarkable wisdom. They recognized that the most effective response would come through empowering members of the marginalized community themselves. The seven leaders they commissioned—all bearing Greek names—demonstrate how the early church prioritized cultural competency and representation.This passage invites us to reconsider what it means to be "Pentecost people." While many contrast Pentecost with Babel, viewing one as unifying and the other as dividing, closer examination reveals both affirm diversity. At Babel, humanity's uniformity was scattered into beautiful multiplicity. At Pentecost, this diversity wasn't erased but transcended—people heard God's praises in their native tongues.Today's church faces similar challenges with discrimination along racial, gender, and sexuality lines. Acts 6 offers a powerful corrective, showing that authentic Christian community doesn't erase differences but empowers diverse voices. The criteria for leadership—being "full of the Spirit and wisdom"—applied equally to those preaching and those distributing food, challenging hierarchical notions of ministry.What would change if we followed this model? How might our churches transform if we recognized that sometimes holy complaints reveal places where the Spirit wants to work? Join us as we explore how embracing both cultural and spiritual diversity reflects God's heart for a church where everyone has a vital role to play.Support the showIf you enjoyed this episode, consider subscribing to Madison Church on your favorite podcast platform.

This report looks at public perceptions of discrimination and sexism across key areas of life, but because there is much to unpack, this episode is divided into two parts.Dr. Susan Madsen, Founding Director of the UWLP, is joined by Dr. April Townsend, one of the co-authors of the report and a UWLP research fellow.

[The following episode was released June 2023 - [Full Episode Notes on Patreon]Description: As Pride Month continues, we explore the activism of drag queens and trans individuals who bore the brunt of the violence during the Stonewall Riots of 1969 and are still targets of violence and vitriol today. State legislators, so far this year, have proposed and in some cases passed, hundreds of bills that seek to restrict drag culture and queer self-expression. Proud Boys have harassed and threatened Drag Story Hour events across the country, even in the diverse borough of Queens, NY. In this episode of The Laura Flanders Show's monthly feature, Meet the BIPOC Press, Laura and co-host Mitra Kalita (co-founder of URL Media) are joined from North Carolina by Naomi Dix, an influential drag artist whose show in rural Moore County was disrupted by a sabotage attack on an energy substation — an attack that left 45,000 households and businesses in the dark for five days in December 2022. We're also joined by reporter Sam Zachar, the producer of a two-part podcast series for Epicenter-NYC on NYC's Drag Story Hours — what they are, and what they're up against.“We never thought in a million years, especially drag artists of my generation, that we would have to be facing the same things and issues that our parents were telling us that they were having to face in the 50s and the 60s and the 70s and the 80s.” - Naomi Dix“What we're seeing is an overlapping of the identities that our communities represent, and the approach to how we combat these forces. It's really powerful when we can say the counter protestors outnumber those who don't want us here.” - Mitra Kalita“I think that Drag Story Hour as a whole gives us a great look and a microcosm of drag trans and queer worlds, because it represents how they're being attacked in terms of losing rights to exist safely, and the Proud Boys, specifically digging their heels into inflammatory, destructive and untruthful accusations against these communities.” - Sam ZacharGuests:• Naomi Dix, Drag Artist, Activist & Member of Durham NC BIPOC Operated House of Coxx; Co-Chair, Pride: Durham, NC www.naomidix.com• Sam Zachar, Reporter, Podcast Producer, Epicenter-NYC• S.

This episode discusses a topic within a new white paper report titled “Utah Women, Discrimination, and Sexism: Experiences and Perceptions.” This is the final report of our statewide study conducted in the fall of 2024 at the Utah Women & Leadership Project (UWLP) that explores how Utahns view the challenges facing women and girls. This report looks at public perceptions of discrimination and sexism across key areas of life, but because there is much to unpack, this episode is divided into two parts.Dr. Susan Madsen, Founding Director of the UWLP, is joined by Dr. April Townsend, one of the co-authors of the report and a UWLP research fellow. As the owner of Townsend Consulting, she has 30 years of extensive experience working with government organizations, where she has held leadership positions for the past 21 years. Support the show
It Gets Late Early: Career Tips for Tech Employees in Midlife and Beyond
Have you ever felt trapped in a system that's supposed to empower you but instead chips away at your well-being? In today's episode, I'm sitting down with Kelly Stonelake, a former Meta executive who's blowing the whistle on what's happening behind the scenes at one of the world's most powerful tech giants. From battling toxic corporate culture to confronting racial issues in virtual spaces, Kelly's story isn't just about one woman standing up - it's about exposing the systemic issues that hold women back in the corporate workplace and getting all of us to fight for a safer, more accountable tech industry. If you've ever felt the weight of corporate silence or been pushed to the brink in a system that's more about profit than people, this conversation serves as an eye-opener.Kelly opens up about her time at Meta and the deeply toxic corporate culture she experienced, which led to her risking it all by taking on the company with a high-profile lawsuit. She reveals her fight to hold Meta accountable for the harm done, particularly to vulnerable users. As a former senior executive, Kelly sheds light on the urgent need for corporate accountability in an environment that prioritizes growth over people's well-being, and how her treatment after speaking out about racial and cultural issues within Meta eventually led to her whistleblowing.If you're interested in the human side of big tech and how systems of power perpetuate harm, this episode is a must-listen.Tune in to hear Kelly's remarkable journey and discover how she's taking a stand for change, even when it comes at great personal cost.Two small corrections from Kelly: "After listening back, two quick clarifications to my comments in the spirit of accuracy. I said it is illegal for companies to collect data on children. Clarification: it's illegal to collect data on children without parental consent. Also, I said I was 21 when I was first sexually assaulted by my boss, but I misspoke. I was 23 years old." “It's a great privilege to be able to tell the truth.” ~ Kelly StonelakeIn This Episode:-The challenges of working with Horizon Worlds-The role of senior leadership in perpetuating corporate culture-The impact of being laid off, especially for neurodivergent individuals-Meta's disregard for product safety and how that impacts children-Embracing the privilege of being able to tell the truth-Kelly's reflections on DEI and corporate accountability-The emotional impact of being a whistleblower-Discrimination and ageism in the tech industryAnd much more!Resources:-Stonelake v.

The US Supreme Court has just issued a unanimous ruling in favor of a white, straight woman who was allegedly discriminated against at work.This new ruling opens the door wider for these types “reverse discrimination” cases — cases where the person getting discriminated against is part of the quote unquote majority group.Let's go through the details of the case together, as well as what this ruling means for all of us moving forward.
In this episode of UCL Uncovering Politics, we explore one of the most foundational questions in human rights theory: Is there a human right against discrimination?While many of us instinctively view discrimination based on attributes like sexual orientation as inherently wrong, not all human rights theorists agree that this wrong is best understood as a violation of a human right. Some argue that discrimination, though harmful, doesn't necessarily fall under the scope of human rights protections.Joining us to unpack this complex debate is Dr. Saladin Meckled-Garcia, Associate Professor in Human Rights and Political Philosophy at UCL's Department of Political Science. Dr. Meckled-Garcia presents a powerful case for why the right against discrimination should be considered a core human right — and offers a fresh philosophical grounding for why such rights matter.Mentioned in this episode:The Routledge Handbook of the Philosophy of Human Rights, edited by Jesse Tomalty, Kerri Woods. Chapter 21: "Is there a human right against discrimination?" Saladin Meckled-Garcia UCL's Department of Political Science and School of Public Policy offers a uniquely stimulating environment for the study of all fields of politics, including international relations, political theory, human rights, public policy-making and administration. The Department is recognised for its world-class research and policy impact, ranking among the top departments in the UK on both the 2021 Research Excellence Framework and the latest Guardian rankings.

The conversation explores the challenges and hopes of growing up Bedouin in Israel, the complexities of community life, and the power of embracing multiple identities. Tamer's story highlights the importance of unity, resilience, and understanding across different backgrounds.

The recruitment blitz— adding as many as 85,000 workers across its 17,000 US locations — is a bold move aimed at slashing long wait times.CEO Brian Niccol, speaking to 14,000 store managers at a Las Vegas event on Wednesday, called it 'the biggest human capital investment in connection in the history of Starbucks.'
