Job Seekers, eager to get a job somehow, add the keywords in their resume to get shortlisted, without realizing that they might not go past the first interview. They don't realize that it's a waste of their time and the employer's time.

In my experience of placing software engineers in tech startups, the only way to find the best talent is to talk to them. If we give them coding test, they get done with it somehow but when we talk to them in the interview, that's when we get the real sense of their skillset. I know it's time consuming, but it saves you a lot of time and money in the long run.

I second you on that. Especially for the senior positions as they are looking for an exceptional candidate experience meaning they should be getting updates regarding the application and feedback upon rejection. When they don't receive such experience, they don't wanna do business with such companies anymore as they feel disrespected. But since I started working as a recruiter myself, I noticed that providing feedback manually is a lot of work and recruiter's can't manage to provide feedback to all the candidates except the generic feedback which is just a formality but don't help the candidates a lot. We figure out a solution for it later and noticed 95% candidate retention rate by providing specific feedback to all the rejected candidates. So yes feedback works for both sides.

Great question—this is exactly the pain we wanted to eliminate. Candidates get their own dedicated workspace where they set up their profile just once—it’s a modern, intuitive flow where they can upload their resume, profile picture, set preferences, and fill in any info recruiters actually need.

Once set up, they can apply to any job shared with them by a recruiter in one click—no need to re-enter the same details again. And if they update their profile (say, new experience or skills), those changes instantly reflect across the candidate pool of every recruiter they’re connected with.

No redundant form-filling, no duplicating what’s already in a CV or LinkedIn—just one clean profile that stays up to date and works across roles.

I hope I answered your question. I am happy to answer any other question you might have. Thank you.

This is an interesting read. I am seeing something opposite. Accounting firms are getting inclined towards using AI to fasten their processes. Its very hard to infuse AI into such firms but it's happening.

Could you please explain what is good enough? I understand the concerns for privacy or data protection but that can be catered easily. The main point is growth considering lots of companies are already opting for AI in terms resume filtering and all. If these companies don't opt for AI automation, they might fall back in their growth targets. What are your thoughts on it?

1. I spoke with the recruiters and they told me about their internal systems. 2. With AI being everywhere and bringing fast paced automation, I believe one should opt if it brings them value considering the tool does not bring a drastic change into their systems as no one likes interruptions in their operations. Any thoughts on that?

We have created our own internal system to do that.

Scraping LinkedIn URLs is hard. I recommend that you either use a third party API like Scraper API or get domestic IPs with IP rotation. We are gonna launch our product in this week and you can test it out yourself. We would love to have your feedback on the product.

Thank you for sharing your insights. Very helpful. Yes you got it right. I would change the landing page then to make it more visible.

Could you please guide if I need SOC 2 audit before I lock a customer? Right now I don't have any. It doesn't feel right to spend this much money and time on something without having the surety that someone one would become a customer after it is SOC 2 compliant. Thanks

Thank You for sharing this. Appreciate it.

Actually I would go into that thing once I demo it to enterprises and they want the software. If I am able to lock one deal, I would get into this certification thingy as it is costly and time consuming. Do you have an enterprise software or did you go through the same path as I am right now? If yes, I would really want to know how you landed your first customer as it would be super helpful for me. Appreciate your insights.

For most part, you completely understood my situation. As far as product is concerned, I spoke with those people who would be actually using it not the decision makers. Implementing the product is in the hands of management. I had an idea before reaching out to the customers but I took a pivot considering their needs as they are the ones using it. The management would take the product if it gives them business.

The product I created is a tool for recruiters to speed up their recruitment process by automating all the manual work done by them. The ones I spoke with before making the MVP loved the product and recommended more features that would help them. But selling it to them is hard as they are not the decision makers. May be I suck at sales or the way I am approaching them is not right.

Not Yet. Its an MVP right now. Even to get a demo call with enterprise, do I need that certification?

Interesting. But ChronoFlow.ai is different than that. It's a tool for recruiters to track the timelines of each shortlisted candidates. It's a B2B SaaS tool.

Thank you for the interest. As you can see, it does record the url of the closed tab, but there is no way it can link back to the person. Anybody who installs the extension is just an ID to the system. The reason we decided to record the closed URLs is for analysis. Because we plan to launch a feature where AI is able to let you know of possible unsafe tabs in the future. We still don't have anyway to link this activity to the user itself because we don't have their details. I hope it makes sense.

very simple and addictive.

Thank You. We will keep improving the product with your valuable feedback.

Thank You. Appreciate it.

Thank You for your feedback. Thats the major purpose of creating ALLURT. You got it right.

1. ALLURT is a chrome extension that lets you share screen confidently in few seconds by ensuring that you do not share any confidential data tabs.

2. It puts the browser in Do NOT Disturb mode by muting social media notification thus providing you calm and distraction free environment during screen sharing.

3. It preserves your privacy by hiding your bookmarks during screen sharing and brings it back once the screen sharing ends.

Enjoy ALLURT while you screen share on google meet.
