Everything in this series so far has been a component. This post is the assembly instructions. Over the past two months I have walked through the state of the 2026 recruitment market, the evidence bank, decoding adverts, tailoring CVs, the cover letter detection test, and mock interviews that push back.…

Imagine I write a client report. I conduct the interviews. I examine the client’s systems. I identify the problems. I develop the recommendations. Then I give the draft to an AI system and ask it to restructure one section and tighten the language. Who authored the report? I did. The…

Your Microsoft account team is probably already talking to you about Microsoft 365 E7. It reached general availability on 1 May 2026, it bundles E5, Microsoft 365 Copilot, the Entra Suite and Agent 365 into a single suite, and moving customers from E5 to E7 is a stated priority for…

Here is a number that should worry every IT Director in a mid-sized UK organisation. According to the ONS, around 55% of employees say they use AI for work or education. Only 35% of businesses with ten or more staff say they have adopted AI. And of those adopters, just…
