Ascent Group are finalists at the 2025 OnRec Awards!
We’ve got some exciting news from across the Ascent Group – and we’re thrilled to share it with our digital recruitment community!
TechNET Digital and our sister brands have been shortlisted at the OnRec Awards 2025, and we couldn’t be prouder. Across the group, we’re up for:
- Best Innovation in Recruitment
- Best Use of Responsible AI
These nominations celebrate the incredible work happening across all six Ascent Group brands, including everything we’re doing right here at TechNET Digital to push boundaries in the digital space.
Why this matters: innovation in digital recruitment
Digital recruitment is a fast game. Trends evolve overnight, and the way we connect brands with top talent has to keep up. That’s where our nomination for Best Innovation in Recruitment hits home.
At TechNET Digital, we’re not just filling roles – we’re helping businesses reimagine what hiring looks like. Whether it’s refining how we engage digital candidates, supporting clients through hiring spikes or embracing new tools that cut through the noise, our team is always moving the dial.
This nomination recognises that effort, and we’re buzzing to see our innovation in the spotlight.
Our approach to AI: smart, strategic and human
Let’s talk about AI. Everyone’s using it – but not everyone’s using it right.
At TechNET Digital, and across the wider Ascent Group, we’ve taken a deliberate, ethical approach to AI. It’s not about flashy automation for the sake of it. It’s about making better hiring decisions, faster, while protecting fairness, removing bias and keeping the process human.
That’s why we’re also nominated for Best Use of Responsible AI.
Whether we’re using AI to improve candidate experience, boost diversity in digital hiring or streamline how we shortlist, we always keep people at the centre of the process. And that’s something we’re genuinely proud of.
Celebrating digital recruitment success
Being shortlisted in these categories isn’t just about us – it’s a win for our clients, candidates and the wider digital hiring world.
Why? Because it means the things we care about – transparency, efficiency, innovation and ethics – are getting the recognition they deserve. It shows that digital recruitment done right can be faster, smarter and more meaningful.
When you work with TechNET Digital, you’re not just getting access to great candidates. You’re getting a team that genuinely loves what they do – and one that’s constantly levelling up to help your business thrive in a digital-first world.
What’s next?
The OnRec Award winners will be announced in September, so until then, we’ll be keeping our fingers firmly crossed!
In the meantime, we’ll keep doing what we do best: delivering creative, tech-savvy recruitment solutions that help our clients hire smarter and help candidates find roles that genuinely excite them.
