SUMMARY:The 239% Problem: How AI-Powered Candidates Are Breaking Staffing Workflows
DESCRIPTION:What’s changed on the candidate side and what it means for screening \n  \nDate: Tuesday\, June 16th\, 2026 \nTime: 12:30 PM – 1:30 PM ET \nSpeaker: Aaron Wang\, CEO\, Alex AI \n  \nApplications per job are up 239% since 2021. But that’s because more than one in five candidates are now using AI agents that apply to jobs automatically\, in bulk\, around the clock. \nThat means every resume looks polished\, and the signals recruiters used to rely on to separate strong candidates from weak ones are disappearing. Recruiter hours per placement are going up\, fill rates are going down\, and most firms are absorbing the cost without a plan to fix it. \nIn this session\, Aaron Wang\, CEO of Alex AI\, draws on over one million AI-assisted interviews to cover: \n● How candidates are using AI today\, from resume writing to fully automated applications to outright fraud\, and what that does to the applicant pool.\n● Why traditional screening breaks down when candidates are AI-assisted\, and what specifically stops working.\n● What the emerging threat of candidate fraud looks like\, and what staffing firms need to watch for.\n● What alternative screening approaches staffing firms are testing\, and what the early results look like. \n  \n  \nRegister Here \nCan’t attend?
