    Founder & CEO @ Covey. We give recruiters time back in their day with AI.

    "Better, faster, cheaper – pick THREE." (s/o Intercom for coming up with this amazing AI tagline) That's the AI revolution in talent acquisition, according to our incredible panel yesterday. While traditional thinking (V1 SaaS) forces trade-offs, AI is rewriting the rules. — Alan Price (Deel) shared how they’re using AI to manage over 2 million inbound applications per year while transforming recruiting processes with their RISE framework to enhance hiring quality and efficiency – delivering an impressive 2x improvement on candidate NPS — Jay Patel (DoorDash) shared that by continuously refining and optimizing their AI bots, they were able to not only reduce application review workload by ~ 20X, but also increased candidate pass through rates 2X for best-fit candidates. — Siadhal Magos (Metaview) “AI isn’t replacing recruiters—it’s enhancing them, requiring increased specialization. The game is still on the field, and it’s ultimately about getting great people to join your company” The consensus from our experts: – AI is ready for PRIME TIME. Talent teams not leveraging AI are being LEFT BEHIND – the major players are already seeing transformational results — Top organizations are using AI to fundamentally rethink their talent strategies, not just speed up existing processes – With AI, proof is in the pudding. Choose vendors and partners that have demonstrated *AI success* at enterprise scale. In two years, we'll look back and think, "I can't believe we used to recruit that way."

    Ever wonder why your engineering roles take forever to fill? Here’s some crazy data we just analyzed… 👇 We dug into our number of outreach messages across departments from 2022-2024, and the differences are wild. Engineering roles need a staggering ~929 outreach messages per hire. The top 3 hardest departments to hire for: - Design: 1048 outreach messages sent - Engineering: 929 - People: 910 In 2022, you could fill a Product role with about 137 outreach messages. Now? It takes 471. Some other wild changes since 2022: - People: +130% - Data Science: +84% - Engineering: +30% 2024 was the peak year, with candidates requiring 240 outreach messages on average before converting. This is exactly why we built Covey… When you need to send hundreds of personalized outreach sequences just to make one hire, you absolutely need AI to scale that process without losing quality. In the past, scaling outreach efforts often meant simply adding more team members. However, we’ve learned that market conditions can shift unexpectedly, sometimes leading to difficult layoffs—a challenging experience for everyone involved. As a result, companies are now more mindful about growth strategies. With leaner teams, it’s more important than ever to leverage AI to drive efficiency and scalability—the recruiting landscape has completely changed in just a few years. And if you’re still using the same manual outreach tactics from 2022, you’re probably drowning. Is anyone else seeing this crazy increase in outreach needed? Or are we the only ones with this data?

    “Sourcing is dead. Long live (agentic) sourcing.” When Engine's recruiter Heloisa Bassalo made this statement, I had to pause. In the talent market, that's like a marathon runner saying they stopped training. Yet Heloisa's team secured 4 quality hires in a compressed timeframe—all while spending *less* time on sourcing activities. The secret? A consistently full top-of-funnel powered by Covey's outbound AI: "I'm not sourcing every day because Covey is doing part of this work for me. Especially for evergreen roles like software engineers, you can have the bot on forever because it brings you a constant funnel." 💡This transformation freed Heloisa's team to excel at what actually differentiates great recruiters: → Focusing on candidate soft skills and cultural alignment → Conducting thorough, meaningful interviews → Building genuine relationships with high-potential candidates → Managing complex offer processes with finesse Recruiting was never meant to be primarily about finding people— It was meant to be about connecting with them. The impact has been so profound that Heloisa now rates her experience a perfect 10 and actively recommends Covey to industry peers seeking AI solutions. PS: Are your recruiters still spending most of their day hunting instead of hiring? Send me a DM, and we’ll set up a demo.

    AI Sourcing tools and AI-first staffing & recruitment platforms are ALL OVER my feed right now….. Are they the game changer they promise to be???? As someone deeply passionate about the potential of AI in staffing and recruitment, I believe we’re on the verge of a transformative shift. The power of AI isn’t just in automating tasks; it’s in unlocking hidden potential, optimizing processes, and making hiring smarter, faster, and more inclusive Finding the right talent in today’s competitive market isn’t just about posting a job and waiting. With nearly 90% of recruiters now using AI-powered sourcing to stay ahead, companies that don’t leverage AI risk falling behind. Take SPECTRAFORCE a global staffing leader, as an example. They use Ayra by Leoforce an AI-driven recruitment platform, to scan 850 million candidate profiles across 70+ platforms. This approach cuts sourcing time by 50%, allowing recruiters to uncover high-potential candidates that traditional methods might miss And Looking closer to home at Deel, the tools my colleague Alan Price recently showed me absolutely blew my mind. Covey ! AI sourcing isn’t just about speed—it’s about finding hidden talent. Platforms like RippleHire use AI to identify passive candidates, those who aren’t actively job hunting but could be a perfect fit. The system scans LinkedIn GitHub and industry forums to analyze career trajectories and predict who might be open to new opportunities . Key AI tools shaping the future of candidate sourcing: ✅ Arya by Leoforce - AI-powered sourcing with predictive analytics ✅ HireEZ – Identifies passive candidates across 45+ sources ✅ Fetcher – Automates outreach with personalized AI messaging ✅ Eightfold – Uses deep learning to match candidates to roles AI sourcing isn’t replacing recruiters—it’s amplifying their capabilities. But as AI takes center stage, companies must ensure ethical hiring, mitigating bias and maintaining human oversight in the process. Tagging some interesting AI staffing and recruitment commentators I follow: Hung Lee | Glen Cathey | Shally Steckerl | Katrina Collier 🇦🇺🇬🇧 | Kevin Wheeler | Tim Sackett, SCP 🟦 | Matt Alder | Adam Gordon | Ben Eubanks | Alan Price Let’s discuss: What AI tools are you using for candidate sourcing in 2025? 🚀 Any thoughts people? #Recruitment #AI #TalentSourcing #Hiring #FutureOfWork #HRTech #Staffing

    The numbers from our Grow Therapy case study blew me away... Their recruiting team was drowning in candidate applications — they’d built an amazing brand and were attracting an outsized volume of applicants. This, however, meant six recruiters were spending 2-3 hours EVERY DAY just clicking through applications in Greenhouse. Here's what happened when they implemented Covey: → Saving two and a half hours every day! Per recruiter! → Recruiters catching details they would have missed manually → Complete human oversight maintained (crucial for their DEIB standards) → Mitigating the human/real fear of going out on PTO and returning to a mountain of applications to review But here's where things got really interesting... The team didn't just process applications faster — they completely transformed how they worked. "Two amazing things have happened: [1] I have more calendar time to screen more candidates, and [2] I have time to go on LinkedIn and source people. It's actually revolutionary. Since we started using this tool (Covey), everyone on our team has had more time to source. We've had more passive candidates in our funnels and hired. It's incredible." -says Karishma Sharma Desai This completely flips conventional recruiting wisdom on its head. Most teams think about automation as simply processing existing applications faster. But that's short-sighted. The REAL value comes when your recruiting team can reallocate their time to high-impact activities they never had bandwidth for before. Instead of being application processors, they become true talent hunters. Karishma and team used the time saved from app review to further increase the talent density at Grow to help the company achieve even greater heights. This is the shift we see with high performing teams that get started on Covey Scout: Recruiting shifts from an administrative, cost center to a true competitive advantage. What would your recruiting team do with the majority of their administrative work eliminated overnight? Curious to hear your thoughts. And if you're drowning in applications like Grow Therapy was, my DMs are open.
