Forecasting Recruiting in 2025
Happy New Year Everybody!
And welcome to Season 5 of Brainfood Live On Air - the weekly show where we gather the world's top experts to come on and discuss live on air the topics of the day. The year would not make a proper start without a forecast of what we think the recruiting environment is going to look like. Lets review how we think the market is going to shape up:
- Investment in TA / HR Tech
- Assessment & Candidate use of AI
- Volume of job applications / job advert volume
- TA organisational set up / and role distribution
- Decentralised hiring - will more recruiting work be pushed back to the line?
- State of DEI
- Use of Artificial Intelligence - where do we stand on this?
- Future for Employer branding, what innovations do we expect?
- TA job market - any recovery, and if so, where?
All this and more on Brainfood Live On Air.
We are bringing all of the big guns: join George LaRoque, Founder (Workbench), Madeline Laurano, Founder (Aptitude Research), Bas van de Haterd, Author (Talent Acquisition Excellence), Tim Sackett, President (HRU), Torin Ellis (himself) & friends
We're on Friday 10th Jan, 2pm GMT
