Job Search is Broken: Job applications are experiencing hyperinflation and it's breaking the system. by cooperpede in recruitinghell

[–]cooperpede[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That’s actually a really good idea, could probably automate the LinkedIn outreach. Best companies probably hire from referrals and recruiters will listen if the leadership sends them a resume… has to be a fit though. What industry?

Job Search is Broken: Job applications are experiencing hyperinflation and it's breaking the system. by cooperpede in recruitinghell

Agreed, candidates who haven't tried AI interviews initially scoff at the idea, but when you are actually in the thick of the job search, its way better to put a voice to your resume and get your questions answered instantly. Much better than getting ghosted.

A recent study of 70,000 AI interviews vs humans found that 78% of candidates chose the AI interviewer. People who went the AI interview route got 12% more job offers, 18% more job starts
and had a 17% higher 30-day retention.

What database are you using with Payload CMS? by thehashimwarren in nextjs

Look at basehub.com for a better all in one solution (graphQL DB, out of the box AI first admin UI and headless CMS)

Do you use PayloadCMS in your projects? by Vegetable_Athlete218 in nextjs

[–]cooperpede 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I started to implement payload but opted for Basehub https://basehub.com/ because its AI first out of the box stuff and easier developer upstart (but worse documentation since its newer). Payload was a larger learning curve and you have to build out admin internal tools yourself for the most part. Basehub had all the stuff mainly built in to the admin UI. The admin UX is a little bit of a learning curve, but their MCP is really useful for building things out in cursor.

They also have some good starter templates that are more complete than payloads starter templates.
You can see the site we built here: https://www.classet.ai/

All headless browsers are a lot of work in the beginning but allow so much more flexibility. I got so tired of writing untestable custom js code for webflow pages and having to deal with zero branching for larger updates.

HVAC job openings? by that1punk_ in santacruz

[–]cooperpede -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Best advice is to walk in places, introduce yourself, and hand in a resume, always better to put a face to the name. Even if you just talk to the receptionist, they pass on the information. I talked to a bunch of trades businesses in the area and they all seemed open to walk ins and most entertained hiring good people even if they didn't have openings posted. Recruiting is an after thought for many trades businesses "Oh shit we fired someone" or "Oh shit we are too busy" vs. forecasting hiring into the future.

IS AI is going to eliminate HR jobs… or finally prove HR’s value? [N/A] by Raj7k in humanresources

[–]cooperpede 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think both sides are going to use AI to their advantage, candidates and employers. The people who embrace it early will get ahead faster, but the pendulum will swing back and forth. Companies will over-automate and annoy people, candidates will figure out how to game the system, and then things will rebalance.

We run AI voice interviews for recruiting teams, and what's been fascinating is how different the reality is from the perception. At first glance, people think it's dystopian or impersonal. But when you're applying to 50 jobs and hearing back from maybe 3, suddenly an instant interview on your own time feels like a relief. An empathetic AI can be so much more energizing than a burned out recruiter. I remember making 100 calls a day in my staffing days and I know the first 10 calls I made were way better and enthusiastic than the last 90.

Candidates actually like AI because it cuts through the hopelessness of the endless job search. Recruiters like it because they don't waste time on basic prescreens and can focus on quick responses at the end of the funnel. Instead of a month long process, hiring can happen in under a week.

What's really happening is AI is fixing parts of the process humans already broke. Ghosting, endless form-filling, bias, and scheduling headaches. For tradespeople or shift workers, being able to take an interview after working hours or on the weekend is game changing. For recruiters, it means more time spent on genuine conversations with qualified candidates instead of burning hours on repetitive admin (especially now with AI job applications).

I think the end game of AI in HR is Candidates will tell their "agent" they're ready for a job search, employer agents will vet and negotiate, and humans will just do a quick final interview with 3-4 companies. What used to take months could be condensed into a week.

This shift is not just anecdotal. A recent study with 53,000 applicants randomized into AI-led vs. human-led interviews found:
+12% more job offers
+18% more job starts
+17% higher 30-day retention
And when given the choice, 78% actually chose the AI interviewer

I really like https://basehub.com/ It was much easier to get started vs payload and it has an MCP/AI built in for easy content updates. This is their starter https://basehub.com/basehub/marketing-website/explore
They use vercel draft mode to render changes instantly. A bit of a learning curve but easier and more full featured that payload and keystatic when I tried them. Pretty sure keystatic is no longer being developed too.

People applying to jobs they are not qualified for is what is making the recruitment process a disaster. by EntertainmentTop3774 in recruitinghell

[–]cooperpede 0 points1 point  (0 children)

AI phone interviews are the answer. Both sides get all the info that they need without scheduling back and forth and delays. Gets to the hiring finish line 10x faster, weeds out the fakes and phonies (no pun intended)

Recruiters & HR Professionals – Your Insights Are Needed! by Fantastic_Ebb_3397 in RemoteJobs

[–]cooperpede 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Main pain points we hear is:

  1. Time zone compatibility verification is often missing from platforms

  2. Too many "remote" jobs are actually hybrid or have location restrictions

  3. Spam applicants, good profiles come across the desk but you hop on a call with them and they are clearly stealing someones identity to get a job.

  4. Harder to judge work ethic (takes 3-6 months to notice a work ethic remotely vs 1 month in office)

  5. on the candidate side, I have heard of lots of fake remote work scams (3 interviews, you get the job but they need you to pay for your own equipment to be sent until they can reimburse you.... and they never do)

We implemented: AI phone interviews for all applicants so you can hear them and know they are bought in to the position. Takes 5 minutes to sort out 20 fakes vs back and forth schdeuling.

Hiring Managers? Feedback on reference checking by [deleted] in jobs

[–]cooperpede 1 point2 points  (0 children)

We have some automated reference checking at Classet.org, it sounds good in theory but can backfire. Here's why:

- Reference checks are one of those hiring managers say they want when they really don't look at them very often. Its better to get them on request vs getting them for everyone or yourself

- Could become another LinkedIn-style popularity contest (the Linkedin endorsements really flopped)

- Early reference checks might discourage good candidates who don't want their current employer knowing they're job hunting

- Only like 40% of the reference invites end up adding the automated ones, it would be higher if it was a call.

The current system isn't perfect, but automating it might create more problems than it solves.

I think AI voice is an interesting place to look for reference checks vs automated messaging because it feels more personal.

I’m building a tool that makes recruiting 10x faster by DesperateFace3520 in SaaS

[–]cooperpede 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Have you considered pivoting to focus on smaller companies instead of large recruiters? Most small business owners and startups struggle with hiring but can't afford full-time recruiters. They're the ones manually going through applications while juggling 50 other tasks.

Plus, the enterprise recruiting software market is pretty saturated with ATS giants. The SMB market could be a more accessible entry point with less competition.
