The Job Search Is Changing: How Source2 Is Rebuilding Candidate Attraction for the AI Era

Your best candidates may never see your jobs.

Candidates can now ask AI to find, compare and narrow down roles before they ever visit a careers site or job board. That changes what visibility means for TA.

If your attraction strategy was built around search engines, job boards and career sites, there’s now another route into the job search to account for. The risk is simple: the right people may never reach you.

On 8 October, Source2 COO Geoff Barlow joins Hayley Skivington to share what Source2 is seeing, how it is rebuilding candidate attraction as job search changes, and what TA leaders should be paying attention to now.
