If innovation is…

The process of translating an idea or invention into a product or service that creates value or for which customers will pay.

LinkedIn Recruiter

and AI – are not good

enough!



@BarclayJones

What if the tech being created for recruiting is not for agencies –only for internal recruiters….

You need to get on the defensive! And get clever!

You don’t need to imagine a world where recruiters are so paralysed by technology options that they don’t pick up the phone!

We risk abdicating recruitment to technology!
