With all this beautiful weather here in Wisconsin I missed last Friday... continuing to look at RecOps within Talent Acquisition: RecOps in Action: Getting the Most from Your ATS One of the most underrated growth levers in staffing? Deeply understanding and optimizing your existing tech stack—starting with your ATS. Here at Carex Consulting Group we leverage Bullhorn In RecOps, we’re often the bridge between strategy, systems, and execution. We are always focused on leveling up our ATS usage — not by buying something new, but by maximizing what we already have. Here’s what that looks like: 🔹 Auditing and streamlining workflows 🔹 Uncovering and implementing underused features 🔹 Building automation rules to reduce manual tasks 🔹 Training internal teams for consistent, high-impact usage 🔹 Creating dashboards that drive actionable insights The impact? 📈 Better recruiter adoption ⏱️ Time saved across the funnel 🤝 Smoother collaboration between ops, recruiters, and leadership 💡 A scalable foundation for growth RecOps isn’t just about tools — it’s about intentionally aligning people, process, and technology to drive results. If you’re in RecOps or staffing leadership: when’s the last time you did a deep dive into your ATS capabilities? You might be sitting on untapped value. #RecruitingOperations #RecOps #TalentTech #ATSOptimization #ProcessImprovement #StaffingTech #RecruitingEnablement

January IT Employment Holds Steady Employment in IT remained flat In January 2026, adding 1,999 net jobs month-over-month, according to TechServe Alliance, the national trade association for the IT & Engineering Staffing and Solutions Industry. Since January 2025, IT employment grew 0.67%, or 34,836 jobs.    “January’s employment data reinforces what our members are seeing in the market right now—a labor environment that remains selective and uneven, but is beginning to show early signs of stabilization,” said Mark Roberts, CEO of TechServe Alliance.    “We are seeing comparatively better IT hiring momentum in sectors such as healthcare, life sciences, utilities, and infrastructure-related engineering, where digital modernization, data, and security needs remain active. Overall, clients are moving more deliberately, approving targeted projects and high-priority roles, and placing greater emphasis on outcomes, productivity, and near-term business impact rather than broad-based hiring,” Roberts added.  A NOTE FROM PHIL There are so many challenges to finding good IT people today. Candidates can send their resume to hundreds of businesses with one click. Fraudulent resumes and workers are more common than ever before. If you need any help hiring IT Contractors or Full-Time employees, give us a shout.
