Jax 5.0 has arrived here at Jobot! OG Jax has experienced all 5 iterations of Jax the software. When asked what his thoughts are about the Jax 5.0 release, he went on to say... "Jax 5.0 brings all the great features from 1-4 and adds that 5.0 punch to it! My only suggestion would be to integrate more high protein treats!" OK, OG Jax didn't actually say that, but he is certainly hoping for more treats (: #recruiting #recruitment #staffing #changinglives

Recruiting practices deep-tech companies should drop for GTM hiring: 💹 Generic keyword searches 💹 Over-reliance on job boards 💹 Inadequate (or zero) technical screening 💹 Neglecting domain expertise for GTM roles 💹 Underutilizing personal networks and relationships 💹 Over-relying on personal networks without a hiring framework 💹 Expecting generalist recruiters to source for specialized candidates You've heard me say this before (a lot): When hiring a GTM team for complex sectors like AI/ML, compute, infrastructure, etc specialists outperform generalists every time. The need for a specialist's depth of knowledge and network cannot be met by traditional hiring strategies. Our latest client was introduced to an outstanding candidate the same day we began our search. They hired him. A bit of chest beating, but my point is that this is only possible because we know exactly ”where the bodies are buried". We are specialists. And this rapid, precise matching is something only a specialized search firm can offer. Want a sneak peek? We have an extensive database with over 2,100 companies and more than 20,000 profiles across GTM functions. With just a few clicks, we can swiftly navigate our extensive talent pool to pinpoint candidates with key technical skills that might otherwise be missed. DM 'DATABASE' and I'll send you a customizable data export.

In staffing, strategies for third-party vendors should focus on metrics and performance. By tracking your vendors’ data, you can effectively evaluate current strategies and compare them with past successes. Even better - you’ll learn which vendor clients you like best and who consistently provides top-tier talent. And for those times when your approach is failing and you don’t know why, think of data as the magnifying glass. It will help you understand exactly where your third-party strategy needs to be improved. What gets measured, gets managed. #vendormanagement #staffing
