Hisayuki Idekoba, CEO and President of Recruit Holdings and Indeed, spoke at the Semafor World Economy event on March 28, 2024. He discussed the company’s operations, noting that Indeed and Glassdoor serve 550 million job seekers and facilitate an average of 27 hires per minute globally. Regarding the impact of technology on the workforce, Idekoba advised that individuals should adopt a mindset to enjoy change and develop new skills. He also cited internal research projecting 20 million fewer workers in the U.S. over the next 15 years, attributing 80% of that decline to an aging population and 20% to AI replacement. Idekoba argued that hiring processes should be made “easier, simpler, faster” to reduce the societal cost of changing jobs. He questioned predictions of high unemployment from AI, pointing to numerous open in-person positions and noting that skilled trades like plumbing can offer high compensation comparable to professional services roles.
