We can learn a lot from our kids in general, and there’s lessons to be learned from the younger generation when it comes to AI.

Vibe coding is great, but it’s not something you can do in every workplace, especially when you work for a bank which has more stringent regulations.

Patrick McQuaid, Group Head of Data, Analytics & AI at NGM Group, still vibe codes for fun at home, but he also recognises you can't whip something up over a weekend and call it production ready when it's people's money and data on the line.

He gets into this and more in this episode of Building Tech Teams with James MacDonald.

NEW MERCH!

When we started talking about the next line of NTP Talent merch, team legend and lawn connoisseur Kyle Chapman approached us with the idea of using one of his favourite designers, Sindy Sinn. And Sindy delivered in spades with our fishing robot who’s as “hooked on talent” as the rest of the team.

It was only fitting for Kyle to get the first wear of this new merch, especially on his three year anniversary with NTP Talent. During his time with us, Kyle has positioned himself as one of the best recruiters across technology.

People certainly make the workplace, and we love having Kyle as part of the team. He’s an average ping pong player, third best golfer in the company, but always brings the good vibes.

Congrats on all your success!

AI is changing more than just the way we work, it’s changing the way we search. With more people using AI & LLMs for search, it’s becoming more important for companies to consider how their brand is going to show up in search results.

At Hunter Innovation Festival this year, Kyle Chapman caught up with Kara Sullivan, Owner & Brand Strategy Director at Guts Creative to talk through how AI is changing marketing.

In our 2025-26 NTP Market Insights: Technology & Engineering guide, we found that a companies brand is just as important as the services and products they provide when it comes to attracting top talent to work for you. You can find out more about this and other insights by booking a meeting with one of our specialist recruiters, link in comments.
