Most of what I read about AI in recruiting falls into one of two buckets: hype (“AI will replace your recruiting team by 2027, click here to find out how”) or fear (“AI is coming for your job”). Neither one really matches what’s actually happening inside teams that are doing this well. So instead of…

There’s a lot of noise right now about “AI adoption” in engineering: vague claims about productivity, thinkpieces about the future of QA, dashboards nobody trusts. What’s harder to find is the practical stuff, so I pulled my friend Nat aside, a senior quality engineer and someone who’s spent the last few months building AI tools…

Most sales reps did not sign up for data entry. I know I didn’t. And yet, a huge chunk of the job still comes down to writing notes, updating a CRM, and trying to remember what a prospect said three calls ago and when to follow-up. For reps who manage a large book of business,…

One of my favorite parts about recruiting isn’t just filling jobs. It’s talking to people who solve problems. This week I had a conversation with Catia, a technical recruiter who’s spent the last decade sourcing engineering talent.

It’s saved me hours every week. So when I saw a post in PromptMates breaking down a similiar system, I knew…

It’s time we retire the mentality that someone who has been out of work for three months to two years is somehow weaker than a candidate with “better tenure.” Honestly, if I had five bucks for every candidate I came across with great tenure who turned out to be a C player, I could retire.…

The PM slack channel is off the chain! Every week I come across builds that make me stop and think, “That’s a clever way to solve that problem.” Here are two that stood out to me this week: 1. Stub Skills + Source Skills This concept, shared by Dan, tackles a problem that anyone building…
