AI agents aren’t coming for recruiting.

They’re already here - and they don’t care how many reqs you filled last quarter.

In this episode, Tim Sackett sits down with Jason Roberts, SVP of Tech & Analytics at Cielo, to break down what AI is actually doing inside RPOs and staffing firms - and why the old recruiting playbook is about to get torched.

The future of recruiting isn’t theoretical - it’s operational.

And if you think your job’s safe because you "build relationships"? Think again.
