HR technology, every morning — wired to the companies and people behind it.
AI-powered hiring and workforce tools dominated today's headlines, with Xobin launching an AI Interview Auditor for greater transparency in automated hiring, SK AX debuting a tool capable of assessing 1,800 applicants in six hours, and Intellihr raising $303K to scale its AI recruiting platform. On the investment front, Fronted secured €1.7M to streamline global hiring and expansion, while Dayforce extended its agentic HCM platform to public sector clients through Carahsoft and Chegg Skills partnered with PowerTrain to deliver AI and workforce training across government and defense. Workforce equity and compliance also drew attention, with an equality watchdog calling for a ban on salary history questions and scrutiny mounting over unpaid pre-shift payroll risks.
