AI changed the tools. It didn't change what makes a great hire.
Recruiting in 2026 looks different. AI is handling the sourcing. Automation is running the outreach. And somehow, hiring is still hard. Because the tools were never the whole answer.

The SpeakEZ Live Recruiting Conference is where recruiters and TA leaders come together to share what's actually working, how to use automation to move faster without losing human moments that close candidates, build trust with hiring managers, and make this job worth doing.

No theory. No pitches. Just practitioners figuring it out in real time, sharing what's moving the needle in 2026.
