#105 - When AI Takes Over, What Happens to People?
The Purple Acorn HR Morning ShowIn Episode 105 of The HR Morning Show, hosts Danielle Farage, Serge Boudreau, and Mike Peditto explore how AI is reshaping HR, recruiting, the future of work, and what these changes mean for the people behind the processes. A new McKinsey report suggests that roughly two-thirds of today’s HR activities could be automated or largely handled by AI agents by 2030. But the bigger question isn’t simply what technology can take over. It’s how HR teams will redesign their work, preserve human judgment, and prepare people for roles that may look very different in just a few years. If AI takes over entry-level tasks, how will the next generation of HR leaders develop the experience they need? We’ll also look at the rise of AI agents as virtual employees, with new platforms allowing businesses to automate tasks and coordinate work in ways that once required a team of people. As employers rethink hiring and job responsibilities, where should human oversight remain essential, and what skills will employees need to stay relevant? Danielle Farage welcomes Victoria Gates and Lorna Erickson of Expert Interviewers to discuss the launch of the *New Hiring Manager Playbook* and the role hiring managers play in building stronger hiring practices. Serge Boudreau talks with Meaghan Ziemba of Z-ink Solutions about the world of manufacturing, an industry that may not always get the spotlight but plays a vital role in the workforce. Mike Peditto sits down with Chris Sund of Uniti Med, GQR Healthcare, and Nebula to discuss how company culture helped fuel 10x growth at Uniti Med, what HR can do about the healthcare workforce shortage, how to use AI in recruiting without losing the human touch, and the lessons behind his guide to becoming your best self at work and in life. We’ll also check in with Serge for his weather report before wrapping up with the latest headlines, conversations with people shaping the HR landscape, and questions worth debating across the industry.

Something Had to Give: Workday Candidate Profile, A Transformation Realness Exclusive
Transformation RealnessEvery time you apply to a job at a company that runs on Workday, you create a new account, a new login, and a new password, then type your resume into the boxes again. Today at Workday Rising in Las Vegas, Workday announced the Workday Candidate Profile: one profile a candidate owns and controls, saved once and used across any Workday-hosted career site, with the candidate deciding what each employer receives. Employers keep their process and their questions. Kyle sat down with Adam Godson, who leads talent acquisition product at Workday, for the inside story. They get into why this took so long (security-first data practices and employer attitudes that have shifted), who it matters to beyond the 330 million applicants Workday hosts each year, why the candidate experience tools employers already buy still leave candidates without a profile of their own, and what changes when a profile holds a candidate’s wants, needs, and motivations instead of a two-page resume. Adam also previews the talent acquisition agent launching at Rising and the interface updates coming to Workday Recruiting. The conversation refers to this as Universal Profile, its name when we recorded. Same product, new name. Kyle has an advisory relationship with Workday, and he does not pull punches.

#103: How to Get Cited by AI Without a Big Following ft. Kaleigh Moore
Workfluencer: Personal Branding & Content CreationYou don’t need a massive following to have expertise worth citing. But how do you become a source AI turns to, and what could that mean for your next brand partnership? Kaleigh Moore joins Rhona Pierce to explore how creators can build AI search visibility through specific expertise and content that answers real buyer questions. They discuss why being known for something matters, what makes an expert citable, and how creators can show brands evidence that their content is already appearing in AI answers. For brands, this creates a different way to think about creator partnerships. Who can give a credible answer to the questions your buyers are asking? That person could be an independent creator, a customer, or an expert on your own team. Rhona brings a real scenario into the conversation: her first official creator AEO partnership kicks off an hour after recording. Together, they discuss how these deals differ from traditional influencer campaigns, what belongs in the brief, and what creators should clarify before putting a price on the work. They also cover employee compensation, usage rights, AI likeness protections, and the challenge of measuring results. It’s an honest look at an emerging opportunity for creators and the brands that work with them. What You’ll Learn: Why niche expertise can matter more than follower count for AI citations. How a clear topic focus and recognizable frameworks can strengthen your expert positioning. How to find content ideas in the questions buyers already ask. How to use evidence of your existing AI visibility in brand conversations. What makes a creator AEO brief different from a traditional influencer brief. Where employee-generated content fits, and why compensation matters. What to clarify about exclusivity, advertising rights, and AI likeness before pricing a deal. Why AI visibility requires ongoing testing rather than a single sponsored post.

HR’s Existential Crisis: Are We Relevant Anymore?
The Human CapitalistAI may not be the biggest threat facing HR. Irrelevance might be. In this episode of The Human Capitalist Podcast, I sit down with my friend Brandon Jeffs for one of the more candid conversations we've had about where HR, recruiting, and talent are actually headed. And we don't agree with every popular HR narrative. We dig into whether CHROs really need to “earn a seat at the table,” why I believe nobody deserves that seat, whether recruiting could become one of the most strategically important functions in the business, and why skills-based hiring may not be nearly as mature as the industry wants us to believe. We also tackle AI adoption. Companies are racing toward AI-enabled work, but adoption is messy, governance is lagging, and employees can now bring their own AI tools into the workplace whether the enterprise is ready or not. Then we get into a bigger question: What is HR actually for? If payroll and benefits move toward finance, employee relations works increasingly alongside legal, AI changes administrative work, and organizations operate with smaller headcounts—what is left for HR to own? Brandon makes the case that the answer may be closer to recruiting than many HR leaders want to admit. We talk about recruiting as a source of market intelligence, why revenue per employee matters, what's wrong with traditional job descriptions, the limitations of skills-based hiring, and why the HR organizations of the future may look very different from the ones we built in the past. If you're a CHRO, HR leader, recruiter, talent acquisition leader, or executive trying to understand where work is headed, this one may make you uncomfortable. Good. That's usually where the interesting conversations start. 00:00 — Is HR's biggest threat AI—or irrelevance? 02:20 — AI adoption, governance & the future of HR tech 09:50 — Does the CHRO really deserve a seat at the table? 16:10 — Why recruiting may be HR's most strategic function 18:36 — Job descriptions are broken 20:18 — Is skills-based hiring actually overhyped? 26:02 — Could recruiting become the future of HR? 34:30 — Brandon's advice for staying relevant I'm working on my new book, The FutHRist: The 5 Mindsets of the Future HR Pro, built around the five mindsets I believe HR professionals will need to remain relevant in the age of AI: The Architect.

#104 - Who gets ahead in todays talent market?
The Purple Acorn HR Morning ShowIn Episode 104 of The HR Morning Show, hosts Serge Boudreau and Ron Fish take a closer look at what makes people want to stay, grow, and build a career at work. What actually makes a company a great place to work? A new Forbes ranking of the world’s best employers points to something that goes beyond perks and benefits: opportunities to grow, recognition, strong culture, and a sense of purpose. The bigger question for HR is whether employees would describe their workplace the same way their leaders do. The conversation also looks at how professionals are finding new ways to turn their skills and expertise into income. As coaches, consultants, recruiters, creators, and other professionals embrace paid appointments and flexible work, employers may need to rethink what flexibility, side work, and retaining highly skilled talent look like. Serge sits down with Ravi Tandra to talk about why he started ProvenBase, their Nashville and RecFest experience, and a real customer story that illustrates how the technology is helping solve a specific problem and change the way that work gets done. Ron also talks with Matt Senter, an indie developer with a long history in tech startups, about Weatherling, a cozy Mac app that brings rain, snow, and a little social competition to your desktop. Later, Daniel Space joins the show to talk about the evolving role of the HR Business Partner, the importance of understanding the business and its models, and how HR can continue to grow into an even more essential part of an organization. And the show closes with a look at the growing skilled trades talent gap. From construction to aviation, employers are facing serious shortages—and increasingly looking to reach younger workers earlier, challenge perceptions about trade careers, and build talent pipelines before they desperately need them. Join us for another conversation about the people behind the workplace headlines, the careers they’re building, and what HR can do to create places where people actually want to stay.

Metaview Lands $60 Million Series C
Rec Tech: the Recruiting Technology Podcast"In recruiting news: LinkedIn is restricting popular third-party sourcing tools like Pin, Gem, and Neuroscale, cutting off unapproved external access to its network. The core issue comes down to user consent and data scraping policies. By enforcing stricter controls over candidate profiles, LinkedIn is aggressively protecting its platform ecosystem. For talent acquisition teams, the takeaway is clear: unauthorized sourcing plugins are out, and relying on official, compliant integrations is the only safe bet." https://www.linkedin.com/pulse/pin-gem-neuroscale-gone-from-linkedin-consent-question-brano-vargic-lrovc/ AUSTIN, Texas — In a major push to overhaul the modern hiring process, workplace insights platform Glassdoor announced the launch of Glassdoor Recruiter, an artificial intelligence-powered matching tool designed to replace endless job board scrolling with tailored, culture-first career recommendations. Part of Indeed and subsidiary to HR technology giant Recruit Holdings, Glassdoor aims to address widespread “application fatigue”—a growing issue where candidates submit dozens of resumes into online job boards only to face radio silence. Instead of traditional keyword searching and bulk applications, Glassdoor Recruiter pairs candidates’ resumes and career priorities directly with listings from Indeed’s global job marketplace, filtered through Glassdoor’s extensive database of employee reviews and workplace data. https://hrtechfeed.com/glassdoor-launches-ai-driven-glassdoor-recruiter-to-end-job-search-burnout-and-mass-applications/ SAN FRANCISCO—-Juicebox, the AI recruiting platform, today announced a strategic agreement to acquire intellectual property and other assets from Fetcher, a talent sourcing and recruiting automation platform. As part of the agreement, Fetcher customers will have the option to transition to Juicebox as Fetcher winds down its existing product and operations. “Juicebox has been on our radar for years, and I believe they have the most compelling product on the market right now. We’re committed to working closely with them so our customers feel supported every step of the way,” said Christopher Calmeyn, Co-founder and CEO of Fetcher. Since its founding in 2016, Fetcher has served more than 1,500 customers and over 5,000 recruiters worldwide, and has raised over $30M in capital. Its product combined recruiting expertise with automation to help companies identify and engage qualified candidates. The company’s human-in-the-loop approach paired technology with personalized support, helping recruiters spend less time on manual sourcing and more time building relationships with talent. https://hrtechfeed.com/sap-to-acquire-techwolf/ Arriving just a year after its Series B, the round brings Metaview’s total capital raised to $110 million and marks a milestone in the HR technology sector’s migration from passive AI copilots to autonomous, task-oriented software agents. Metaview plans to direct the fresh capital toward three core initiatives: Agent General Availability: Rolling out fillmore alongside role-specific micro-agents across enterprise environments. Team & Geographic Footprint: Tripling headcount from 80 to 250 employees and opening a New York City office alongside its San Francisco and London hubs. Upskilling Talent Teams: Expanding 10x Recruiting, an educational and community framework designed to train recruiters in talent engineering—the practice of designing, tuning, and overseeing agentic AI hiring systems rather than running repetitive sourcing manually. https://hrtechfeed.com/metaview-secures-60m-series-c-to-scale-agentic-recruiting-and-autonomous-coworker-fillmore/ SAN FRANCISCO & LONDON — Metaview, an AI-native talent acquisition platform, announced a $60 million Series C funding round led by Insight Partners, with participation from GV, Intrepid Growth Partners, Seedcamp, Vertex Ventures US, Plural, and Garuda Ventures.

The Trust Advantage: Why Intentional Connection Beats Office Proximity - ep. #033
Return to PeopleHow do you build deep executive trust and intentional culture across a fully distributed workforce without ever stepping foot in an office? In this episode of the Return to People Podcast, host Kaleem Clarkson sits down with Marta McAllister, VP of People & Culture at Measurabl, to explore how modern HR leaders turn remote flexibility into an engine for connection, retention, and organizational trust. Drawing from two decades of culture-building experience across pharma, tech, and gaming, plus her unique background as a Las Vegas-based Wheel of Fortune finalist. Marta details how she rebuilt an entire HR function from scratch while treating remote work as a non-negotiable lifestyle design tool. Together, they dive into the operational mechanisms required to replace physical proximity with deliberate human connection. Marta breaks down how removing an office requires leaders to actively design access to executive leadership, creating structured feedback loops that move employee trust metrics out of the red and into the green. By sharing how Measurabl expanded its talent network across 22 states and international borders, how her team implemented "Human to Human Hello" check-ins, and why establishing baseline trust enables companies to navigate high-stakes AI transformation, Marta delivers a masterclass in people-first leadership. Crucially, she reframes virtual engagement as an active daily commitment. As she notes; "Coming to work daily is a choice. Why show up here when you can show up anywhere? The more you get to know someone on a human level, the more that trust is built." The conversation explores the core friction points and breakthroughs every remote leadership team faces: -The Core Challenges: Marta addresses the reality of remote isolation and engagement decay, detailing how the loss of spontaneous office interactions requires organizations to explicitly engineer micro-moments of peer-to-peer connection and peer mentorship. -The Core Successes: You'll learn how Measurabl transformed executive leadership trust through monthly "Just Ask Me Anything" open sessions, dramatically widened their hiring pool beyond San Diego, and built a sustainable culture where personal autonomy directly powers organizational performance. 👉 Tune in now and discover how to align distributed work with intentional human connection Learn more about Marta: Measurabl´s Website: http://www.measurabl.com/ Marta´s LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/marta-mcallister-777b3155 Learn more about your ad choices.

The Most Private Data Your Employer Will Ever Touch
The Jim Stroud PodcastThe Most Private Data Your Employer Will Ever Touch In clinical trials right now, people who can't move their hands are typing with their thoughts. Investors put about a billion dollars into brain-computer interfaces last year. Precision Neuroscience, Neuralink, and Synchron led the charge. Most Human Resources (HR) leaders assume none of this will ever reach their desk. It will, and it won't come through procurement. Drawing on recent funding reports from The New York Times and others, Jim Stroud explains how brain tech will enter the workplace first. He also reveals why the obvious policy fix backfires and the one line every employer should add to policy this week.

Is HR Being Fired? AI Isn’t the Biggest Threat to HR
The Human CapitalistI don't think the biggest threat to HR is getting fired by AI. It may be something much quieter: keeping your job, your title, your team, and even your seat at the table while the biggest decisions about the workforce get made without you. In this episode of **Is HR Being Fired?**, I break down what Monday.com's restructuring tells us about the changing role of HR in the age of AI. We're looking beyond the layoffs to the bigger questions facing HR leaders: • What happens when revenue grows but headcount doesn't? • Which jobs actually change because of AI? • Where can companies increase output without increasing headcount? • Where is human judgment still worth paying for? • Where is AI and automation riskier than it looks? • And who will design the organization of the future if HR doesn't? This isn't just a Monday.com story. CEOs and CFOs are asking new questions about productivity, automation, organizational design, and the workforce. If HR is still answering yesterday's questions, someone else will answer tomorrow's. The future of HR isn't about defending our seat at the table. It's about becoming the people who help design what the organization becomes. 📘 My new book THE FUTHRIST released on September 14th. 🎯 Take my Futurist Self-Assessment to discover whether you're operating as the Architect, Engineer, Scientist, CEO, or Coach—and where you need to improve to remain relevant in the age of AI: www.trentcotton.com/futhrist-self-assessment/ ▶️ Watch the full **Is HR Being Fired?** series: https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLdyUKttA2krw Learn more about your ad choices.

Salary.com Wants to be a "Playa"
Rec Tech: the Recruiting Technology PodcastDallas, Texas - PitchMe, the data enrichment and talent intelligence platform for recruitment and staffing agencies, today launched SONAR, a new search product designed to eliminate one of agency recruiting’s most stubborn workarounds: searching an ATS or CRM for known candidates, then opening a separate sourcing tool to find everyone else. Live now in early access across the UK, US and Europe, SONAR searches public data sources across the web and returns enriched candidate profiles recruiters can review and contact from one place. The product works alongside systems such as Bullhorn, Avionte and Vincere, giving agencies a modern sourcing layer without requiring an ATS migration or disrupting the system of record their teams already use. The launch is the first step in PitchMe’s plan to bring an agency’s internal database and the external talent market into one search experience. A second module in development will synchronize candidates from an agency’s ATS or CRM into PitchMe, display internal and external candidates side by side, and automatically route qualified candidates back into the ATS as they advance through a hiring pipeline. SONAR organizes each hiring effort as a Project, which can be private or shared with a team. Inside a Project, recruiters create Searches in one of two ways: describe the candidate they need in plain language and let SONAR build the query, or use more than a dozen structured filters covering job title, geography, experience, education, skills, employers, credentials, and languages. Link LONDON — Global learning and testing giant Pearson announced on Tuesday an agreement to acquire Workera, a Silicon Valley-based startup specializing in artificial intelligence-powered skills verification and enterprise assessments. The transaction marks Pearson’s latest strategic push into corporate upskilling, aiming to address mounting corporate anxiety over workforce readiness in the age of generative and agentic AI. Financial terms of the deal were not disclosed. Founded in 2019 in Palo Alto, California, Workera operates an adaptive assessment platform that combines agentic AI, psychometrics, and role-specific simulations to benchmark what employees can actually do, rather than relying on self-reported résumés or static quizzes. The roughly 60-person startup serves high-profile enterprise and defense clients, including Accenture, ServiceNow, and the U.S. Space Force. Following the acquisition, Workera will fold into Pearson’s Enterprise Learning & Skills unit. Workera’s co-founder and chief executive, Kian Katanforoosh, will join Pearson’s leadership team. https://hrtechfeed.com/pearson-acquires-workera/ WALTHAM, Mass. — In a bid to upend conventional human resources workflows, compensation data veteran Salary.com announced the launch of SalaryTalent, an AI-native talent management platform designed to place real-time compensation intelligence at the center of everyday workforce decisions. Built on Salary.com’s foundational job ontology—which encompasses over 1.4 million leveled job titles across 30,000 organizations in 140+ countries—SalaryTalent is powered by the company’s Max AI engine. The suite debuts with five interconnected products designed to cover the entire talent lifecycle: Product Focus & Strategic Capabilities Recruiting Pre-configures job requisitions with compliant, pay-transparency salary ranges to streamline offer negotiations from day one.

The round was led by Spark Capital, with participation from Nonfiction Capital, Silicon Gardens, and angel investors from hiring giants ZipRecruiter and Indeed. Unlike legacy job boards that operate primarily on sponsored-listing and advertising business models, HiringCafe positions itself as an exhaustive internet-wide search engine. Traditional aggregators typically surface about 20% of active job openings—mostly sponsored posts from large corporations—leaving millions of applicants to fight over the same visible positions. By deploying automated agents and web-indexing algorithms to crawl company career pages directly, HiringCafe claims its index exceeds 5.7 million open roles—up to 400% more than leading traditional job boards. https://hrtechfeed.com/hiringcafe-secures-6-8-million-to-tackle-the-hidden-job-market-with-ai-talent-agents/ Learn more about your ad choices.

AI Made Us More Productive. So Where Did the Money Go?
The Human CapitalistAI is making employees more productive but where is all that productivity actually going? McKinsey data shows a striking gap: while companies report significant productivity gains from AI, far fewer can connect those gains to measurable financial impact. Meanwhile, organizations aren't waiting for the answer. Roles are being redesigned, hiring is being frozen, and workforce reductions are being considered. In this video, I break down three possible explanations for where the AI productivity gain is going—and what leaders should be measuring before making major workforce decisions. We'll look at research from McKinsey, Apollo, and Culture Amp to explore: • Why AI productivity gains may never reach the P&L • What wage data may tell us about who is capturing AI's value • Why employees can feel more productive without feeling less overloaded • The difference between eliminating work and simply making work faster • How to track AI ROI through the actual flow of work • How the Value of Work Matrix can expose where productivity gains disappear I also share three questions leaders should be able to answer about AI—and a practical exercise you can use with your team to determine whether AI is creating measurable value or simply creating more capacity nobody is tracking.

#102: How to Build an Employee Creator Program ft. Heike Young
Workfluencer: Personal Branding & Content CreationMost employee creator programs start in the wrong place. Companies focus on getting as many employees posting as possible, hand them approved links and captions, and call it employee advocacy. That may create activity, but it does not create thought leadership. After leading content and social media at Salesforce and Microsoft, Heike Young believes companies should move beyond copy-and-paste advocacy and invest in a smaller group of committed employee creators. In this episode, Heike joins Rhona to explain how to build an employee creator program around clear business goals. They discuss how to choose creators across roles, seniority levels, and regions, what motivates employees to participate, and why companies need to provide training, time, recognition, and clear expectations. They also dig into the infrastructure companies often skip, including updated social media policies, job descriptions, content usage after an employee leaves, and collaboration between HR, marketing, and communications. Heike also breaks down her people-generated content model, which connects employees, industry creators, and customers to one broader brand strategy. For companies trying to build an employee creator program without turning employees into extensions of the corporate account, this conversation lays out what needs to be in place first. What You’ll Learn: How to define your goals before selecting employee creators How to choose creators across roles, seniority levels, and regions What motivates employees beyond direct financial compensation Why training, tools, recognition, and community keep creators involved How to make content creation part of someone’s actual role What companies should decide about content usage before employees leave How employees, industry creators, and customers can support one content strategy Resources Mentioned: Heike's Website: https://heike-young.com/ People Generated Content: https://link.rhonapierce.com/VZYlQz Rhona's Newsletter: https://link.rhonapierce.com/newsletter2 Connect with Us: Connect with Heike: https://www.linkedin.com/in/heikeyoung/ Connect with Rhona: https://www.linkedin.com/in/rhonabarnettpierce Want to turn your team into creators?

You’re Qualified. So Why Aren’t You Getting Interviews?
The Human CapitalistYou meet the qualifications. You applied for the job. So why can't you even get an interview? Recruiters are being buried under hundreds—or even thousands—of applications while qualified candidates are wondering why they can't break through. In this episode of The Human Capitalist Podcast, I sit down with recruiter and creator Mike Petito to unpack what's actually happening on both sides of today's hiring process. Mike shares his four-bucket framework for job applicants, including perhaps the most frustrating group of all: candidates who meet the basic qualifications but still aren't getting interviews. We also dig into why most job descriptions need work, the truth behind recruiters spending “7 seconds” reviewing resumes, transferable skills, skills-based hiring, AI's growing role in HR, and what hiring teams can do differently.

Harver Acquires Symphony Talent
Rec Tech: the Recruiting Technology PodcastVANCOUVER, Wash. — ZoomInfo , a leading intelligence platform, has announced the launch of Talent Autopilot, its most advanced recruitment technology to date. Designed to help talent acquisition teams bypass the limitations of traditional keyword searches, the new platform combines professional and company intelligence with autonomous reasoning to unearth qualified candidates who might otherwise slip through the cracks. Rather than depending rigidly on specific job titles, standard keywords, and narrow filters, Talent Autopilot allows recruiters to supply contextual descriptions of a role. The system then evaluates candidates across broader criteria—including underlying skills, practical experience, career paths, and corporate backgrounds—to discover non-obvious fits whose talents match the position’s requirements. “Recruiting teams do not need another tool that simply gives them more candidates to sort through,” said Jon Bischke, General Manager of ZoomInfo Talent Solutions. “They need technology that understands what they are trying to accomplish and has the intelligence to act on it.” https://hrtechfeed.com/zoominfo-unveils-autonomous-recruiting-and-candidate-discovery-features/ BOSTON — RippleMatch, a leading early career recruiting platform, today announced that its university product is now available free of charge to all higher education institutions. The news follows RippleMatch’s acquisition by JobGet, the fastest-growing job platform connecting workers to employers at scale, and provides universities a valuable tool to support students through an entry-level hiring market that’s challenged by AI disruption. “Career services teams are being asked to do more for students at exactly the moment when the job market has become most unpredictable for them,” said Audrey Patenaude, General Manager of RippleMatch. “AI is reshaping the entry-level roles where graduates have traditionally gotten their start. The job search process has become more opaque, and universities are doing this with fewer resources than ever. With our acquisition by JobGet, we’ve gained access to a dramatically larger job inventory and employer network, and that growth allows us to expand access to universities at no cost, and we believe that’s what this moment calls for.” https://hrtechfeed.com/jobget-announces-free-access-to-ripplematch-platform-for-universities/ Phoenix Education Partners, the parent company of the University of Phoenix, has reached an agreement to acquire Fuel50, an AI-driven workforce intelligence and talent mobility platform, for approximately $31.5 million in cash with up to $8.5 million in performance-based earnouts through 2027. Fuel50’s platform uses enterprise data and an ontology spanning over 5,000 skills to help organizations map internal capabilities, forecast labor needs, and drive employee upskilling and reskilling. The transaction, expected to close within 30 days, reflects Phoenix Education’s broader push to bridge the gap between higher education and AI-era corporate talent development; following the deal, Fuel50 will operate as an independent subsidiary under its own brand, with co-founder and current president Jo Mills stepping into the role of CEO. https://hrtechfeed.com/univ-of-phoenix-buys-an-hr-tech-firm/ SAN FRANCISCO — Crosschq announced a major transformation and brand overhaul today, officially relaunching as Brilliant AI to establish what it terms the “hiring intelligence” category. Backed by a new strategic investment from Bessemer Venture Partners, Brilliant AI brings together three distinct HR tech entities: Crosschq, candidate verification platform ApplicantX, and behavioral assessment platform Traitify. Together, the newly unified company aims to solve recruiting’s long-standing blind spot: closing the feedback loop between pre-hire candidate evaluation and post-hire employee performance and retention. https://hrtechfeed.com/crosschq-rebrands-as-brilliant-ai-combining-three-hr-tech-platforms-to-create-hiring-intelligence-category/ ATLANTA — Predictive hiring and assessment provider Harver has acquired Symphony Talent, a major player in recruitment marketing, employer branding, and candidate relationship management (CRM). Backed by private equity firm Rubicon Technology Partners, the newly merged entity aims to address the talent lifecycle from upfront recruitment marketing to post-hire performance. By integrating Symphony Talent’s recruitment marketing and CRM capabilities with Harver’s pre-employment assessments, fraud detection, and reference-checking tools, the combined company will offer: Attraction & Engagement: Employer value proposition (EVP) development, programmatic job advertising, custom career sites, and CRM-driven talent communities. Selection & Verification: Validated predictive assessments, video interviewing, reference checking, and candidate fraud detection. Workforce Intelligence: End-to-end data feedback loops connecting initial recruitment targeting with quality-of-hire and long-term employee retention. Financial terms of the transaction were not disclosed. Symphony Talent will operate under the Harver umbrella, positioning the unified business to compete directly with integrated enterprise talent clouds. https://hrtechfeed.com/harver-acquires-symphony-talent/ Learn more about your ad choices.

The Hidden Onboarding Flaws Destroying Your Retention Rate - ep. #033
Return to PeopleWhat is the real secret to fixing broken onboarding systems and keeping international talent loyal for the long haul? In this episode of the Return to People Podcast, host Kaleem Clarkson sits down with LinkIT COO and Co-Founder Tobias Feuer to unpack what it takes to navigate cross-border hiring and build an international workforce that actually wants to stay. Drawing from a diverse career spanning corporate HR at Bayer, tech recruiting at Alchemy, global outsourcing at Athena, and studying psychology at the University of Buenos Aires, Tobias shares how LinkIT evolved from a technical recruitment agency into a comprehensive HR partner across Latin America, North America, and the Middle East. Together, they explore the operational shifts required to run high-performing, remote-first organizations without losing human connection. Tobias breaks down why remote environments immediately expose flawed onboarding processes, illustrating how high early-stage turnover is rarely about compensation and almost always points to broken systems and missing clarity. By sharing how local economic realities impact international offer packages, how trust-based flexibility drives retention, and why empowering employees with internal projects builds psychological ownership, Tobias delivers a compelling look into modern People Operations. Crucially, he reframes employee care as a core business driver: "If you wanna build something, the most important part is to take care of the people you're doing that with, because they are gonna help you, and you're gonna help them." The conversation dives deep into the realities of remote team management and cross-border expansion, mapping out the pivotal friction points and breakthroughs behind their transformation: - The Core Challenges: Tobias addresses the reality of remote onboarding failures, including discovering an employee who took nearly ten months to become fully independent due to process gaps. He also breaks down the hidden complexities of hiring across borders, such as factoring local inflation and economic ecosystems into compensation to avoid quiet turnover. - The Core Successes: You'll learn how LinkIT achieved exceptional retention; highlighted by an IT team member who turned down a higher-paying AI role to stay by offering unlimited travel flexibility, building internal project ownership, and investing deeply in employee growth. 👉 Tune in now and discover how to fix remote onboarding, master international hiring, and make employee happiness your most strategic decision.

Is Findem Studio America's Next Top Model (Context Protocol)?
Transformation RealnessEverybody in talent tech is announcing an MCP this year, and nobody has a rubric for judging whether any of them work. We find out when something goes wrong. So when Findem launched Studio, Kyle sat down with Liv Anderman and co-founder and CEO Hari Kolam to pressure test what's underneath it. Liv's framing: the MCP is just the piping. The question is whether you get finished work you can trust. In this episode: Hari's library analogy for what an MCP does (an access card is not the same as knowing which book to read), why every Studio agent carries a named expert's methodology you can open and read, what "the illusion of finished work" costs a practitioner when it fails in the room, and why Hari calls Studio a company-wide bet that finished work is where value gets transacted. Steal Liv's demo test for the next vendor pitch you sit through: open a conclusion and show me what's underneath it. What data was it working from? Whose method did it follow? Who checked it?

How AI is Reshaping Career Sites
Rec Tech: the Recruiting Technology PodcastFor years, we’ve built career sites for two audiences: human candidates and basic search engines. But right now, candidates aren’t just scrolling through job boards anymore—they’re asking ChatGPT, Gemini, and AI assistants to find their next role, evaluate company culture, and summarize opportunities. That shift means your career site is no longer just being read by people; it’s being parsed, filtered, and judged by AI. Joining us today to break down this shift is Brianna Huynh, VP of Brand and Creative at Appcast. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

Jack & Jill Land $40 Million!
Rec Tech: the Recruiting Technology PodcastBoomband, a new talent intelligence platform founded by Monster.com creator Jeff Taylor, officially rolled out across all six New England states on Wednesday. Headquartered in Wakefield, Rhode Island, the startup is directly targeting the region’s dense concentration of tech, healthcare, finance, and higher-education employers, bringing nearly 500,000 local, hybrid, and remote roles to the platform at launch. According to Boomband, the traditional online job board model has collapsed under a flood of low-signal, AI-generated applications. The average job posting drew 244 applications in 2025, more than double the volume from 2022, while the regional search cycle for candidates now stretches to an average of 6.6 months. “In a roundabout way, I helped build the system that is now breaking hiring,” said Taylor, Boomband’s founder and CEO. “With Monster.com, we took the Help Wanted section from the newspaper to the internet… Now overlay AI on top of that broken foundation, and you have a full collapse. Everyone is drowning in volume and starving for signal.” By debuting regionally, Boomband aims to give New England employers a localized network that bypasses the flood of irrelevant, nationwide resume-spamming while surfacing local candidates based on actual skill alignment and commute preferences. https://hrtechfeed.com/boomband-expands-to-new-england-for-debut-of-new-ai-talent-platform/ SAN FRANCISCO & LONDON — AI-native hiring marketplace Jack & Jill has raised a $40 million Series A round to upend traditional recruitment and make warm professional introductions at scale. Founded by Matthew Wilson (CEO) and Saaras Mehan (CTO), the platform operates on a dual-agent model designed to eliminate cold outreach, resume spam, and traditional job boards: Jackis a voice agent dedicated to job seekers, holding conversations with professionals to deeply understand their career ambitions, preferences, and ideal roles. Jillis an embedded recruiting agent for companies, learning team dynamics, technical bars, and culture to surface vetted talent. Rather than candidates submitting resumes into applicant tracking systems (ATS), the two autonomous agents negotiate on behalf of their respective sides. When both agents agree on mutual alignment, they directly facilitate a warm introduction between the candidate and hiring team—skipping the application phase altogether. The company says they have already registered 389k candidates and count 5k employers as clients. https://hrtechfeed.com/jack-jill-secures-40m-series-a-to-replace-job-applications-with-ai-agents/ NEW YORK — BoomerangHR has closed a $12.7 million seed round to expand its AI-powered offboarding and corporate alumni platform, targeting a talent market where trusted candidate signals are becoming increasingly scarce. Founded by CEO Jeff Wald, BoomerangHR is designed to democratize the structured alumni networks historically reserved for elite consulting firms and investment banks. The platform plugs into existing HRIS and ATS stacks in under an hour, focusing on three core operational pillars: Automated Offboarding: Alumni Network Management: Talent Migration & Reporting: “A company’s relationship with great talent shouldn’t end when they leave,” said Wald. “We built BoomerangHR to automate offboarding and transform former team members into an active growth network. Through Boomerang, companies can easily access warm rehires, referrals, and sales leads—because your best next hire is someone who already knows your culture, your customers, and your mission.” https://hrtechfeed.com/boomeranghr-secures-12-7m-seed-round-to-turn-offboarding-into-an-ongoing-talent-engine/ The Las Vegas Raiders have selected human resources and workforce technology provider UKG to manage and streamline operations across the franchise’s business, football, and gameday staff. Under the new agreement, the NFL franchise will deploy the UKG Pro suite to consolidate human resources, payroll, and workforce intelligence onto a single operating platform. The move is designed to connect a wide-ranging employee base—from coaches, trainers, and front-office executives to hourly and frontline stadium workers. https://hrtechfeed.com/ukg-lands-an-nfl-team/ Workday, Inc. has named Sarah Kennedy Ellis chief marketing officer, effective October 5, 2026, reporting to Aneel Bhusri, Workday co-founder, CEO, and chair.
