However, only 39% of employers say AI-assisted applications make them more likely to hire, highlighting a growing disconnect. “AI hasn’t rewritten the rules of recruitment — but it has changed the pace,” says Yannick Coulange, Managing Director of PageGroup Switzerland. “Candidates have already adapted; recruitment processes are still catching up.”The Michael Page Talent Trends survey 2026 can be found here.Read the full press releaseDownload photo
