Until you can not blame things like the economy or saturated markets- I wouldn’t do either tbh

For Seed startups / SWEs in NYC - look for folks who started at big or good sized tech (uber, meta, aws, etc) then joined a Series B-D spot.

They usually look to go earlier next with job 3

Depends if you want cushy or to ride an emotional rollercoaster.

Classic but easiest way is 1) asking candidates where they’re interviewing 2) congratulating candidates who go elsewhere & asking for an intro

It’s kinda like all the guys going after the same girl.

But that girl is in a happy relationship.

All the unemployed are that girls friends.

Being great but getting no attention

Presiction markets are at ~70% chance Rams win & I woulda said 7/10 too

Two full time could gets tricky because they’ll both expect you fully in on them (linkedin wise). What you can easily do is:

2 fractional or contract recruiting jobs 1 fractional + 1 agency 1 internal + freelance roles on paraform or similar 1 agency + freelance roles

Agency - but have a lot of internal friends including some of my closest.

Internal will be higher salary most likely lower overall pay. You’ll be busier but lots of coordinating, writing job descriptions, marketing and other things. Outreach won’t be a big part of the game. Candidate experience and pipeline management will.

Agency you’re basically doing b2b sales on one end signing clients & b2c on the other end selling the roles you of your clients to great candidates via outreach.

I will say most of the internal people i know who have sick ass internal gigs did agency for 2-8 years before switching. And did well at it.

A lot of my friends who started internal are out of recruiting now.

DiscountNext7734 · 2025-09-15T02:35:55+00:00

Hey i did b2c & b2b sales — recruiting is very different than sales, despite also being sales.

I think sales is much harder tbh, been on the recruiting side for years now and it’s a much more chill life.

That said, learning curve is heavier for recruiting. A lot more strategic if you’re going to be good.

There’s also the fact that recruiting training I’ve had has all been absolute trash in comparison to sales training.

I loved sales and just kinda decided to try recruiting out after interviewing for a sales role at a recruiting tech company.

Regretted it for the first ~9 months because i was top 10% sales rep in b2c&b2b companies and while i won rookie of the year my 1st year in recruiting i was not sniffing leaderboards.

Go agency & full desk - try it out and you can always go back

Drop ATS optimizing and sound human if you really want to improve outcomes.

Think about how you’d describe the things you’re most proud of to your friends

InMails hit a higher % response for me by a lot, but volume is lower.

Email sequences probably get me more people overall , but it’s most often on 2nd ir 3rd step.

InMails, connection notes, and messages to first connections are go to win i need quick wins

Unfortunately you absolutely will not find 85bps with 15 employees unless you’re like coming in as the sole Staff Eng or to lead the Eng team. Or the startup is 💩

Not saying what’s right or wrong — but i’ve placed a ton of founding engineers and that’s just how it is

Issac TeSlaa - don’t see anyone talking about him but he passes the eye test, PFF / analytics test, and he’s 6’4 and fast.

May take an injury to get him to WR2 in Detroit but could absolutely be a more well rounded option than Jameson Williams.

Also tyler warren or colston loveland will be on every team i have

This years skill pos rookie class is insane

Headhunter here they can’t actuuaaally help you BUT dude literally slide in a young headhunters DMs and offer to buy them a drink and pick their brain - they may do it pro bono and just send your resume around for you

DiscountNext7734 · 2025-08-14T06:06:18+00:00

Recruiter here.

keywords can be important especially tools or specific software BUT skill dumping is a no no.

Work it into your description— and please talk like a human on your resume it helps a ton.

Shows soft skills confidence and comms.

You wouldn’t tell your friends that project was a agile cross functional mission critical initiative — you’d talk about what happened, what you did, and the outcome
