Findem to Acquire Glider to Deliver Hire-Ready Candidates and disrupt the $650 billion staffing industry. Findem, the AI platform for talent outcomes, today announced it has entered into a definitive agreement to acquire Glider AI, a skills validation platform. Together, the companies will deliver an AI-powered hiring solution that produces hire-ready candidates - candidates who are discovered, assessed and verified before they reach hiring managers. Why 65% of tech leaders are pivoting to specialized contract talent in 2026. Tech teams face constant skills gaps, with 87% of leaders struggling to find qualified full-time hires. According to Robert Half's latest workforce research, 65% of technology leaders increased their reliance on contract talent last year. This is not a reaction to layoffs, funding cycles, or temporary uncertainty. It reflects a deeper reset in how leaders think about their operations, their bottom line, and their ability to compete. EU parliament passes AI Act Omnibus. The latest European Union (EU) update on the AI Act changes the timeline, but not the direction, for the online recruiting market. The core rules remain in place, but the path toward implementation has become more realistic, giving job platforms additional time to prepare, especially as they move from simple job listings toward matching, targeting and outcome-driven recruiting. For job boards, the key question is no longer whether AI regulation matters. It is where the real risk sits, what has actually changed, and how to use this extra time wisely. The most active startup acquirers of the past 3 years aren't always who you'd expect. Companies that buy a lot of startups don't always have a lot in common. Per Crunchbase data, the most prolific acquirers of seed- and venture-backed startups in recent years are Salesforce, OpenAI and Snowflake.
