AI Is About to Wipe Out Recruitment Agencies (Unless You Do This)

AI is moving faster than most recruitment and staffing businesses can keep up with and the leaders who don't act now risk being left behind for good.In this episode of the Carrot & Stick Podcast, host Derry sits down with Rob; a 25-year recruitment industry veteran who spent 17 years building his own agency before pivoting hard into AI, now running his own AI consultancy, Lyra Labs. Rob has spent the last two years coaching C-suite leaders, board members, and VPs across some of the biggest firms in the world, and he's blunt about what he's seeing: a huge knowledge gap, a lot of hype fatigue, and businesses that are 12-24 months behind without realising it.
