Pay transparency is becoming one of the central topics for the HR world. For years, many companies have treated compensation as information to share only in the final stages of hiring. The new European regulatory framework is changing this, and fast.

EU Directive 2023/970 is pushing organisations to adopt more transparent processes in compensation management and talent acquisition. This shift goes beyond regulatory compliance. It directly affects recruiting, employer branding and candidate experience.

The future of work has already begun. But are organizations truly ready to govern it?

During the conference “Don’t Look Up: are we preparing for the future of work?”, the HR Innovation Observatory 2026 of the School of Management of Politecnico di Milano brought this question to the centre of the discussion. nCore HR joined the event as a partner.

The 2026 research highlights a labour market undergoing deep transformation: artificial intelligence is reshaping daily work, talent shortage remains a key challenge and HR departments must guide a change that involves not only technology, but also skills, roles, processes and organizational models.

Recruiting is becoming increasingly complex: more applications, more data to analyze, and less time to make effective decisions. Recruiters have to balance speed and quality, often using tools that are no longer suited to today’s context. The risk? Losing valuable candidates and slowing down the hiring process.

In this article, we analyze the challenges of modern recruiting and explore how artificial intelligence (AI) can support CV screening, making it faster, more objective, and more strategic.

Employer branding is not just what a company communicates; above all, it is what is perceived by candidates and employees. It represents the organization’s reputation as an employer and is built through elements such as people’s real experiences, company culture, values, and the work environment.

But today this is no longer enough. Employer branding has become a strategic lever throughout the entire talent acquisition process, as it directly impacts the ability to attract candidates, their level of engagement and the likelihood of retention.
