Ep. 5 | Swipe Right for Talent: When Recruitment Meet Tech with Gareth Bibby
Use Left/Right to seek, Home/End to jump to start or end. Hold shift to jump forward or backward.
Recruitment used to be all phone calls and gut feel. Now, it’s algorithms, chatbots, and AI-driven shortlists. But even as tech transforms hiring, the best recruiters know that relationships still matter more than data.
In this episode of Work Right with Rich, we sit down with recruitment veteran Gareth Bibby for a candid conversation on how hiring has changed and what's stayed exactly the same. They explore where technology gets in the way, and why human connection still sits at the heart of hiring. They also look at how different markets across Asia approach recruitment, what candidates are really experiencing, and what tools actually make a recruiter’s life easier.
Gareth draws on more than 15 years in the talent space, blending old-school practices with new-age tools (AI-powered shortlists, global sourcing platforms, and more). Whether you’re a TA leader, recruiter, or job-seeker, there’s something in here for you.
