HR technology, every morning — wired to the companies and people behind it.

Agentic AI is reshaping recruitment workflows — AppConverge showcased its human-accountable AI hiring approach at HR Indaba, while iCIMS moved to counter a darker consequence of automation by launching a dedicated strategy to help enterprise teams detect candidate fraud.
