Recruiting is becoming riskier in 2026. AI adoption is accelerating, skills‑based hiring is becoming the norm — and as a result, traditional resumes and interviews are increasingly unreliable. At the same time, hiring pressure is rising, people costs are growing, and recruiting software stacks are becoming harder to manage.
In this webinar, we explore how recruiting is changing in 2026, based on insights from Software Advice’s 2026 HR Software Trends survey of 1,000 HR leaders. We’ll unpack how AI adoption, skills‑based hiring, and consolidation pressures are reshaping recruiting — and what high‑performing teams are doing differently to reduce risk and improve decision quality.
In this session, we’ll explore:
- Why 62% of organizations expect AI adoption to increase headcount in 2026, reinforcing that AI is replacing tasks — not people
- Why recruiting skilled professionals has become HR’s #1 challenge, especially for small and midsize businesses
- How skills‑based hiring increases risk when fewer than half of organizations verify skills live, enabling “skillfishing”
- Why leading teams use AI to narrow the funnel and improve context — not to automate hiring decisions
- How the recruiter role is shifting away from administration toward verification, judgment, and stakeholder advising
- Why fragmented recruiting stacks make verification harder — and how integrated platforms improve skills visibility and governance
- A practical framework to compare hiring vs. upskilling through a risk, cost, and scalability lens
