The HR Research Institute has established a new Advisory Board consisting of eleven distinguished professionals from leading organizations to conduct a landmark research study on recruitment technology trends. This board includes experts from prominent companies such as McKesson, Genetech, McAfee, GRAIL, PwC, and other industry leaders who will guide a comprehensive research initiative and virtual event focused on understanding the current landscape and future trajectory of recruitment technologies.

The study will investigate critical aspects of recruitment technology, including how organizations currently leverage technological tools, user satisfaction levels, and the transformative impact of artificial intelligence on talent acquisition processes. Key board members include Brian Fink from McAfee, Chris Murdock, Chief Sourcing Officer at IQTalent, and Jason Vogel, Senior Manager and Executive Recruiter at PwC.

According to Debbie McGrath, CEO of HR.com, the advisory board will provide crucial insights into the evolving hiring technology ecosystem. The research aims to offer HR professionals a practical roadmap for optimizing recruitment strategies through innovative technological solutions. This initiative is particularly important as organizations increasingly rely on technology to streamline hiring processes and improve candidate experiences in a competitive labor market.

The accompanying virtual event, scheduled for October 1, 2025, will provide attendees an opportunity to gain in-depth understanding of emerging recruitment technology trends. Participants can explore the Future of Recruitment Technologies 2025 Virtual Event to learn more about the latest developments in talent acquisition technologies.
