Want to know what everyone in TA is thinking about right now, and how your Talent Team compares?
In March 2026, we surveyed 244 Talent Leaders in the 2026 State of Talent Acquisition Survey. Now, we’re unpacking the story behind the stats in this webinar playback.
The second session focused on delivery, capability, maturity, and the emerging trends impacting hiring in 2026.
We’ll dive into the operational mechanics behind modern Talent functions:
- Hiring Intentions & Team Size: Are organisations planning for headcount growth or decline and by comparison, how the size of TA teams compares across the market.
- Process Maturity: From standardised scorecards through to formal AI usage guidelines.
- TA Strategy & Business Alignment: Benchmark your organisation against regional averages for strategic strength and business alignment.
- Past Delivery vs Future Confidence: A comparison between hiring delivery over the past 12 months and confidence levels for the year ahead across strategy, process, and technology.
- Candidate Fraud: How prepared Talent teams are to detect sophisticated candidate fraud and the key methods they are using.
- The Changing Role of TA: The extent to which Talent Leaders expect AI to reshape the composition of TA teams by 2028.
