Only 6% of candidates believe their resume gets read properly.

👀 Most assume software skims it at best. So they write for it, feeding the job ad into AI until every keyword lines up.

🤖 Then you open that resume and still have no idea who they are.

🤷 The trust gap runs both ways. Candidates doubt anyone's reading.

You doubt the numbers on the page until you've checked them.

🔁 In her latest blog, Helen Dwyer explains how to close that gap, starting with a quick call before the formal process kicks in.

How do you avoid a panel split when selecting a preferred candidate? 🤔

The issue doesn't start in the interview room. It begins weeks earlier, when three stakeholders picture three different people for the same role, and nobody realises until it’s too late.

There's a way to catch it before it ever happens. Fifteen minutes is all it takes to define the characteristics the role actually needs, so the hiring team is aligned on what they're looking for before a single candidate is contacted.

Check out our latest blog on the step we build into every recruitment campaign to make sure a panel split never derails a hire 👇

Most job descriptions list technical skills.

They rarely mention the ones that actually separate a great in-house recruiter from an average one. After almost 18 years in recruitment, we've found it comes down to things like integrity, sincerity, market awareness and bias awareness, not just process.

Our latest blog breaks down the 10 skills that matter most for in-house recruiters, and why they're worth hiring and developing for.

Here’s the question I ask every team I talk to: are you asking “where can we use AI?” or are you asking “if AI already existed, how would we build this hiring process today?” The first question gets you a faster version of your old process. The second gets you an AI-native one.
