Glozo Newsletter: AI, Outreach & The Hiring Shift - October 2025

October 2025

October 29, 2025

Sharper insights. Faster outreach. That’s the Glozo mindset.

Hey again 👋

It’s GLOZO - back with your monthly dose of hiring insight, recruiter stories, candidate trends, and sourcing tips that actually make your job easier.

October’s here, and so is a fresh roundup of content designed to help recruiters, talent acquisition leads, and sourcing pros stay sharp, move faster, and close better matches.

Here’s what’s inside this month’s edition:

  • A closer look at Glozo’s new built-in outreach feature - message candidates without leaving your search and streamline your candidate engagement

  • Fresh interviews from People Behind People - real voices from the recruiting world

  • New data on how U.S. workers are using AI in the workplace - and what it means for AI recruiting tools

  • Highlights from recent reports on layoffs, acquisitions, and hiring trends shaping the talent market

Let’s get into it 👇

Glozo Updates. Outreach is here - and it changes everything.

One of my most powerful features yet is now live: built-in outreach. In Glozo, you can now contact candidates directly from your search flow - no more jumping between platforms or losing momentum. It’s faster, smarter, and designed to help you turn great matches into real conversations instantly.

No switching tools. No awkward copy-paste. Just one clean flow: search → select → send.

You’ll get:

  • One seamless workspace - no switching between recruiting CRMs, inboxes, or sourcing spreadsheets

  • Custom message templates for personalized outreach - create, edit, and reuse them right inside Glozo

  • A single place to track your candidate outreach - see who you’ve contacted, when, and what was said

  • Clear visibility into reply rates and engagement metrics - so you know what’s working (and what’s not)

Whether you're reaching out to five people or fifty, Glozo keeps your candidate communication smooth and human - without slowing you down.

New stories, new voices in People Behind People

This month, three more recruiting voices joined the series - each with their own take on what it means to hire with purpose.

Meet Alberto Tavarez, Amanda Hansen, and Rachel Gallagher - recruiters who lead with empathy, clarity, and conviction.

Their stories are now live on Glozo’s LinkedIn. Read their interviews and get inspired by how they build teams, trust, and better hiring experiences.

What the data says

Regular AI Use Is Growing Fast Among U.S. Workers

According to a recent Gallup report on AI adoption in the workplace, the number of U.S. employees using AI tools regularly has nearly doubled in just two years. In 2021, only 21% reported frequent use of AI at work. By 2025, that number has surged to 40%.

The report explores how AI is reshaping daily workflows across industries - from automation in operations to smarter communication and hiring. As AI tools become more accessible, employees are embracing them not just for speed, but for better decision-making and productivity.

For recruiters, this shift signals a new expectation: faster, more intelligent hiring processes that match the tech-forward mindset of today’s candidates.
