On Thursday, August 7, from 2–3 p.m. ET, Appcast will host a free live webinar led by its in-house economist Sam Kuhn, diving deep into the economic forces steering the future of recruiting.
Titled “The Impact of U.S. Economic Policy on Hiring: What You Need to Know,” the session will unveil new research from Appcast, focusing on how current labor market dynamics, immigration shifts, and government budget cuts are already influencing recruiting—and what comes next.
What to Expect:
