In this episode of APositive Insights, host Darren Cottrell sits down with Khanh Pham from Bullhorn to explore what the recruitment data is really telling us as the industry heads toward 2026.

They unpack why fewer candidates are working with recruiters, how expectations around speed and transparency have shifted, and where AI is already making a measurable impact across the recruitment lifecycle. Drawing on Bullhorn’s GRID Talent Trends, the conversation looks at how leading agencies are using automation to improve candidate experience, free up recruiter time, and build stronger relationships with clients and talent.

The episode also dives into generational differences, including why Gen Z is currently the least satisfied group and why that presents a real opportunity for agencies willing to adapt. A practical, data-led discussion for recruitment leaders looking to stay competitive in a tougher, faster-moving market.
