Recruitment is changing faster than most agencies are willing to admit. CV scanning, manual shortlists, and gut-feel interviews don’t scale — and they don’t compete with AI that can read thousands of profiles in seconds, match skills objectively, and remove bias from first-round screening. This isn’t a threat to recruiters. It’s a warning. AI won’t replace recruiters, but recruiters who use AI will replace those who don’t. #RecruitmentTrends #AIInHiring #FutureOfWork #HRTech #TalentAcquisition

We’ve just released our State of Recruitment 2026 report in collab with (TRN) The Recruitment Network and, for us, this stat stuck out like a sore thumb: Large agencies averaged 179 contract placements per month in 2025… compared to just 25 perm placements. That’s not a blip. It’s a signal. 🚦 Contract is doing the heavy lifting on volume and delivery. Permanent is harder, slower - but still critical for margin. The mistake many agencies make? Assuming the same strategy works at every stage of scale. ❌ The report breaks performance down by agency size, so you can see what “normal” actually looks like for YOUR business and where teams are over- (or under-) investing as they plan for 2026.
