Today, we recognize Juneteenth—a day that honors the resilience, contributions, and enduring legacy of Black Americans.

Juneteenth is a reminder of both how far we’ve come and the work that still remains in the pursuit of equity, opportunity, and justice. We take this day to reflect, to listen, to learn, and to honor the significance of freedom for all.

We stand in recognition of this important day and the history it represents.

Many companies say the same thing when a recruiter reaches out:

“We handle hiring internally.”

“We don’t have the budget.”

“We don’t have time.”

“We only use recruiters for executive roles.”

The reality? The right recruiting partner doesn’t create more work—they eliminate the bottlenecks slowing hiring down in the first place.

We broke down the biggest objections companies have when working with recruiters, and why they may be costing you stronger hires, faster growth, and access to top talent.

AI won’t replace your finance team. But what will it do? 💻

In this clip from KPMG’s Beyond Automation: How AI is Shaping the Finance Workforce, Bowen Knarr, VP and Interim Accounting & Finance Practice Leader, breaks down what’s actually happening inside accounting and finance teams right now.

Yes—AI is taking over the repeatable work. AR, AP, payroll, pieces of month-end close. The manual tasks that don’t require deep analysis are being automated fast.

But here’s the reality. There’s a ceiling to what AI can do.

Complex judgement calls, context-heavy decisions, and strategic allocation. That’s where human expertise still wins and will continue to.

🎧Listen to the clip to hear where Bowen sees the real shift happening—and why the most valuable finance professionals won’t be replaced, but elevated.
