A lot of people are afraid about AI in recruitment. But the reality is that If you’re on the agency side of the fence, you’re actually going to be in a really good position. Here’s why: AI is going to decentralize power from the largest professional recruiting organizations — leveling the playing field for small-to-medium sized search firms and agencies. Large firms have dominated for decades because they could concentrate their resources and build a very powerful database which all drove their brand reputation and revenue growth. Now, though — their size and dogmatic commitment to their own (old) ways will be their downfall. Worse user experiences. Slower delivery. More manual work. Higher labor costs. The reality is that clients will be able to achieve superior outcomes through working with smaller, more progressive organizations — especially those who offer high-touch service and strategic guidance.
