What recruiters can do about the lack of talent

Recruitment AI: Is It All It's Cracked up to Be?
 

"Recruitment AI is a hot topic at the moment, but is it going to transform the industry as much as we’ve been told? And can recruitment AI hold up in a GDPR world?"


The Lies Recruiters Have Been Told About GDPR - Email Marketing
 

"Many of you in the recruitment market will have stopped email marketing ... because someone told you that GDPR means “no more email marketing”. This blog will tell what what total rubbish that is AND why you should be email marketing more than ever before"


6 Traditional HR Practices to Drop When Screening Candidates
 

"Your search team has to make sure that you’re employing relevant strategies in screening potential employees instead of traditional, outdated HR practices that may prevent you from attracting exceptional talent".


The use of technology in recruitment
 

"Ever since the turn of the digital age, technology and recruitment have been inseparable. If your aim, as a recruiter, is to “stay on trend” in today’s economy, you will, without a doubt, need to integrate and keep up with the rise of technology, and there are definitely some benefits of doing so".
