The Hidden Cost of Bad Recruitment Systems
Most recruitment businesses know when something isn’t working, but few can quantify the cost of it.
Bad recruitment systems rarely fail in obvious ways. They don’t usually crash or stop teams from working altogether. Instead, they quietly slow things down, introduce friction, and create inefficiencies that compound over time.
For recruiters, that hidden cost adds up faster than many realise.
Salesforce Agentforce Explained: What It Is and Why It Matters
Salesforce Agentforce represents a fundamental shift in how work is executed inside Salesforce.

What Recruiters Actually Need From Recruitment Technology
Too often, systems are built around reporting and oversight, rather than the realities of day-to-day recruiting.
Why “Just Adding a Tool” Rarely Fixes Operational Problems
When processes start breaking down, the instinct is usually the same: add a tool.
A new CRM. A new reporting platform. Another integration. A new dashboard to “get visibility”.

But in practice, speed is rarely the real problem organisations are trying to solve.
What they’re actually struggling with is control.
The Salesforce Role Is Changing — and So Are the Expectations
As enterprise platforms mature and AI becomes embedded into core systems, Salesforce is no longer just a CRM. It is an operating layer — one that connects data, decision-making, compliance, and automation across the business.
Vertical-Specific Software — The Future of Business Tech in 2026
Most off-the-shelf platforms try to serve recruitment, healthcare, education, logistics, retail, finance, all with the same tools. That leads to workarounds instead of workflows, endless custom fields with no logic, manual fixes for automated systems, and teams being trained to fight the software instead of use it. Instead of supporting operations, tech becomes another problem to manage.
The Talent Tech Horizon: Recruitment Software Trends to Watch in 2026
The recruitment landscape is a living, breathing ecosystem, constantly reshaped by technology, economic shifts, and evolving candidate expectations.

The Recruiter’s New Year Reset: Trading the “Paper Chase” for People
The start of a new year in recruitment is usually a bit of a paradox. On one hand, there’s that “day one” energy—the excitement of new headcounts and a fresh desk. On the other, there’s the immediate, looming mountain of emails, outdated spreadsheets, and the pressure to move fast. For many of us, the resolution […]
Stepping into the New Year with Fresh Starts and Flourishing Teams
As the confetti settles, we find ourselves on the cusp of a brand new year. For many, this time is synonymous with personal resolutions – gym memberships, new hobbies, or healthier eating habits.
