As the staffing and contract work market grows, the reality is that employee on-boarding must change, too. As the federal government loosens restrictions for I-9 compliance, building remote work into the process, staffing organizations can now resort to virtual methods of verifying hired employees’ identities. (And not only staffing organizations and enterprises, but hiring organizations in general.)

It is irrefutable that technology is hugely important to society and business today.

We see the effects everywhere. In medicine, in accounting, in how we interact. There is scarcely a corner of our lives left untouched by technology, for better or worse. Though in business, it’s generally for better.

Bloomberg reports that, in a survey of 2,000+ workers in Europe and North America, respondents say they would rather be replaced in their jobs by robots than other humans. The article goes on to speculate about the best ways our society can deal with automation. If technology may cause disruption in the job market, as many experts suggest, then what is the right approach to integrating it into the workplace? In this post, we'll specifically be addressing recruiting automation and its effects.

Business Technology Today

Today, technology and business move extremely fast. I mean, extremely fast, on a global scale.

Globalization means we can conduct business on both sides of the globe. Think of it like a chain reaction. As certain things in business and technology change, related things change, too. With the global economy, these changes ping-pong across the globe faster than they ever have. We’re interconnected.
