Applicants have AI. Does your recruiting strategy?

October 28, 2026/Leoforce Editorial Team/Comments Off on Applicants have AI. Does your recruiting strategy?

Every resume looks perfect now. Applications keep climbing. Your recruiters still have the same hours in the day.

Candidates are using AI to find roles faster, tailor every resume, and apply at scale. At the same time, their expectations are evolving. Accustomed to personalized, seamless experiences in their everyday lives, candidates increasingly expect the same when searching for jobs.

This leaves your team with two challenges: how do you identify who’s actually qualified while delivering the engaging experience candidates expect? In this conversation, Alison Goldman of Leoforce and Kim Ullstrup of Horizontal Talent get practical about how AI is changing the recruiting journey and what employers can do to adapt their recruiting strategies.

What you’ll walk away with

  • Why the resume is losing its edge. Hear what recruiters are weighing instead, and how they validate skills and spot fraud.
  • What “agentic” actually means. A plain-English look at how AI can ask real questions instead of just checking boxes.
  • How to spot real value in an AI tool. The questions worth asking before you buy, from workflow fit to bias.
  • How to support a more engaging candidate experience. Ways AI agents can personalize job discovery, guide candidates toward relevant opportunities, and create seamless paths to apply or stay connected.
  • Strategies to re-engage talent you already have. Why your next hire may already be in your database, and how to reach them first.
  • Where to start. A simple way to pick your first AI pilot and measure whether it drives outcomes.

Built for talent acquisition leaders, recruiters, and staffing professionals who want a clear next step, not more AI hype.
