Would you be apprehensive about adding a recruitment bot in your hiring process at the risk of losing the ‘human' factor? Our special guest, Betsy Robinson, explains how they utilize AI trends and other tech stacks to enhance their client and candidate experience.   Betsy Robinson is the Founder & CEO of Tier4 Group, a woman-owned, diversity-certified talent acquisition firm headquartered in Atlanta.    The company specializes in connecting exceptional talent with top-tier employers for technology and executive roles, combining advanced recruitment automation with a personalized approach.    Under her leadership, Tier4 Group has achieved remarkable recognition, including six consecutive years on the Inc. 5000 list of fastest-growing companies (2019-2024) and five appearances on the Atlanta Pacesetters list.   Episode Outline and Highlights   [03:03] Recruiting out of college - beginning of Betsy's 20-year recruitment journey. [07:05] How she ventured out alone - discussing high points and challenges. [18:31] Fostering a culture of feedback and how it elevates the quality of output. [24:19] Incorporating recruitment automation, technology, and AI. [33:35] Would you include a digital recruiter in hiring your process? [41:15] Betsy reveals their tech stack and AI trends. [47:28] The value of using note-taking AI tools. [51:52] Creating a culture of strong team collaboration.   Incorporating a Digital Recruiter in the Hiring Process   Would you consider incorporating a recruitment ‘bot' in your hiring process? A lot of recruitment business owners might be apprehensive about doing so, as it poses the risk of diminishing the ‘human touch' in the process.    On the other hand, Betsy's team is leveraging a "digital employee," specifically a digital recruiter, to enhance their hiring process. This AI-powered recruiter can call and chat with candidates, helping to screen large volumes of applicants more efficiently while maintaining a personalized experience. Unlike traditional chatbots or automated emails, this digital recruiter has a live voice and engages in real conversations, making it feel more human-like.   Some of the outlined advantages of this investment include:   Speed & Efficiency – The digital recruiter can process large volumes of candidates quickly, helping the team sift through hundreds of applicants without delays. Candidate Engagement – One of the biggest complaints in recruitment is ghosting—candidates never hearing back from employers. A digital recruiter ensures consistent communication, so candidates stay informed. 24/7 Availability – Unlike human recruiters who work business hours, the digital employee can operate around the clock, allowing candidates to engage at their convenience—whether during a lunch break or late at night.   Tech Stack and AI Trends   Betsy and I also talked about the tech stacks they are using and the recent trends in technology that recruiters can use to either improve and simplify their processes, improve candidate and client engagement, and manage performance and KPIs for their employees.   We have listed below some tools that you may already be familiar with or others you might consider exploring:    Applicant Tracking & CRM Systems Loxo – Legacy ATS/CRM system  Tracker – New ATS & CRM for front/middle office operations with better API integrations AI-Powered Communication Tools CloudCall – AI-driven text and voice communication for candidate and client interactions. Digital Recruiters (AI Recruiters) – AI-powered virtual recruiters that conduct initial screenings via calls and chats. Note-Takers & Meeting Assistants Otter.ai – AI-powered transcription and meeting summarization. Fathom – AI note-taking with advanced meeting insights. Fireflies – AI transcription, summarization, and team collaboration. Copilot (Microsoft) – AI assistant for Teams meetings and documentation. Quill – AI-driven note-taking tool specifically for recruiters. Gong – AI-powered call analysis and coaching for sales and recruiter conversations. AI-Driven Data Management & Automation VMS Integrations – Automates job order creation and updates within the ATS. AI-Powered Contact Management – Automatically updates candidate and client contact information. AI for Remote Team Collaboration & Coaching AI Call Coaching (via GPT or Gong) – Analyzes recruiter and sales calls for performance improvement. Remarkable (Digital Notepad) – Converts handwritten notes to digital format for easy CRM integration.   These tools collectively enhance efficiency, automation, and candidate engagement in recruitment businesses.   Creating a Culture of Strong Team Collaboration   Despite being tech-heavy, Betsy and her team still invest in ensuring that their connection and culture as a team is as collaborative as can be. With a team of 30, mostly working remotely, seamless collaboration and teamwork are essential.   This is how she summarizes their collaboration:  “We, I will say, first of all, we welcome all ideas. It doesn't matter if you are someone who's been on our team for one week or someone who's been on our team for one year or you've been our first employee who's been here 10 years. Everybody brings unique at different perspective perspectives. And I would say we are much more collaborative in our decision-making.”   She also added the value of transparency: “We also communicate to the best of our ability the why behind a lot of our decisions that we're making.”   Lastly, she emphasized the value of accountability: “So we're also working on a culture of, you know, pure accountability.”   The key factors are critical in Betsy's successful culture-building. Do you have similar values in terms of your business culture?   Betsy Robinson Bio and Contact Info   Betsy Robinson is the Founder & CEO of Tier4 Group.

In 2009, she was named CEO by StoneAge's Board of Directors and has since led the company in building a robust global presence resulting in double-digit growth year over year.

Her financial acumen and discipline have led her to obtain double-digit growth year over year while maintaining 20%+ EBITA. Kerry's passion lies in organizational and leadership development, where she helps StoneAge employees grow both personally and professionally. Under Kerry's leadership, StoneAge became an ESOP Company in 2015, and her employees enjoy a strong culture of ownership and engagement. She is proud that StoneAge shares a significant amount of its success with its employees and believes that ESOPs are a viable model for founders looking to exit their companies. Kerry sits on several other boards, including MODSTREET, Chinook Medical Gear and the Fort Lewis College School of Business Advisory Board.

Our team is 100% comprised of employee-owners, providing a level of service and dedication rarely seen in today's work environment. It starts with the tools, but ends with our people, our culture, and our values. StoneAge was born for two reasons: to help solve challenging industrial cleaning problems and create engaging and rewarding jobs for its employees. StoneAge's first product was intended for use in the mining industry – it was a water jet drill used to drill holes for explosives in uranium mining applications. When the Three Mile Accident happened in the late '70s, nuclear power generation halted, and there was no longer a market for the tool. The founders pivoted when they met an industrial cleaning contractor who said, "If you can drill holes in the rock, you can drill out the fouling in the heat exchanger!" That's how we moved from mining to industrial cleaning. We are now the world's leading manufacturer of waterblasting tooling and automated equipment for industrial cleaning applications. Think high-tech squirt guns on steroids.

This is why treatment is so crucial — to both care for the issue before it gets worse and to return your hearing to a healthier state. If anyone knows how valuable that experience can be, it's Andrew Bellavia.

As many of you know, The Grace Tales, the company I’ve spent the last seven years building was recently acquired by AllBright, the career network for women. After an incredibly challenging 2020, I couldn’t be more excited about my next chapter. I launched The Grace Tales when my firstborn was a newborn, and at the time, I was also the deputy editor at Australian Vogue. The Grace Tales was almost like therapy for me, it gave me so much insight into the world of motherhood. I spent many years attending fashion shows all over the world, but I’d swap those shows any day for a Grace Tales shoot where I’d meet and connect with so many women. Connection is at the heart of what AllBright stands for. And today, I am so excited for you to meet Debbie Wosskow OBE, who along with Anna Jones, founded AllBright and I have the extreme pleasure of now working for. Debbie is, by her own admission, a serial entrepreneur. And an incredibly successful one at that. She sold her last business - subscription-based home exchange business Love Home Swap to Wyndham for $53 million. Aside from being a fierce supporter of women, she is a Member of the Mayor of London's Business Advisory Board and sits on the Board of the Women’s Prize for Fiction. In 2016 Debbie was awarded an OBE for her services to business. She won the Evening Standard’s Business Award for ‘Entrepreneur of the Year’ 2018 and was shortlisted for City AM’s Entrepreneur of the Year Award 2017. In this conversation we talk about the three ‘g’s’ which every entrepreneur needs, the ‘why’ of AllBright and how 80% of success is about turning up. AllBright Australia has now launched (make sure you check it out at allbrightcollective.com) and I can’t wait for you to get involved in this incredible platform – let’s meet Debbie Wosskow.

He became president and CEO of Wendy's in 2016 after joining the organization in 2013. Prior to that, he held leadership positions with the Kellogg Company and Ford Motor Company. Penegor is a member of the Eli Broad College of Business Advisory Board. He earned a Bachelor of Arts in Accounting in 1987 and an MBA in Finance in 1989, both from MSU.“Growing up in the Upper Peninsula, I was focused on attending a Big Ten School,” says Penegor on the MSU Today podcast. “I looked at other schools but really knew that Michigan State was the school for me. I just felt comfortable there and I wasn't proven wrong. I loved being there my four years; I loved it so much I stayed there for graduate school.”Penegor talks about what it means to him to be a Spartan. And he talks about how important it is for alumni to give back to their alma mater. Penegor and his wife named The Todd and Jill Penegor Large Team Room on the ground floor of the Broad College's new Edward J. Minskoff Pavilion.“I think about how much opportunity my alma mater has created for me. The school gave back a lot more than knowledge. The relationships, the connections, the comradery, and the pride, I thought it was important with the success that I've been able to have in my career to make sure that we give back.”Penegor's advice for the graduates?“This year we spent a lot of time at Wendy's trying to figure out how we'll lead a little differently and lead in a more remote work environment. Some of the messages will be some of the messages that I've shared with my employees at the company this year with the field team that I've tried to connect to differently and with our franchise community. And what you're going to really see is communication is key. People want to still be connected in this virtual world.“You need to really be adaptable and flexible. We've all faced many curve balls during the year and you've had to manage through those, and you need to really be nimble to check and adjust to anything that's thrown your way. So you really have to find ways to master adversity a little bit differently. And one of the mantras I've had throughout this year is control what you can control and influence where you can. And if you can't influence or control it, don't worry about it. Just prepare for it. Have the contingency plans in place and as things come your way, build your plans to successfully manage through it.“And it's not easy to do that. It's easy to say it, but we're all learning to work a little bit differently. And for the students who are coming out of school this year, whether they're undergrad or the graduate students that I get to talk with, they've had this opportunity to learn to work in this environment. So they've already got a lot of those skill sets that they can bring to new organizations to not just survive, but to thrive moving forward.” And what about challenges and opportunities ahead for Wendy's and the restaurant industry?“We've been blessed. We're in the quick serve restaurant category so we've had the ability to manage a drive-through. We were deemed an essential service early on to help take some of the pressures off the grocery store. So when you think about why QSR plays such a great spot in today's world like speed, convenience, affordability, we play in those spots. The drive-through certainly helps. We can deliver food fast and in an efficient environment. At Wendy's we can differentiate on the quality of the food being fresh and never frozen beef and fresh cut vegetables, all at an affordable price. And when you think about the journey we're on to really compliment all of that, we launched breakfast earlier this year. A little challenging with the morning day part completely disrupted, but our breakfast is doing quite well behind our quality messaging.“The digital journey that we're on is about how do you make a more frictionless experience at the restaurant? How do you turn your parking lots into transaction centers? Whether that's mobile ordering, mobile grab-and-go, curbside delivery, or a loyalty program to connect the business on loyalty and frequency. Then for us it's how do we continue to provide more access to the brand? Unfortunately, a lot of restaurant brands are shutting down and we have opportunities to continue to grow. Whether that's in North America with unique and different formats complemented by technology, or growing our business outside of the US, those are all things the team's working on with a lot of opportunity going forward. And our higher purpose is to create joy and opportunity through our food, family, and community. And we're working hard to bring that to life every day.”And what about for higher education?“Learning is changing, right? How do we connect and communicate as things change? How do we work in this hybrid world that we'll all be working in in the future when it's a little bit virtual and it's a little bit in person? And when you have that environment, how do you teach, how do you communicate, how do you connect to make sure that everybody feels included, whether you're there in person or whether you're there by video? You have to make sure that it is a seamless discussion.“Everybody's going to look for a little more flexibility and look to connect a little bit differently, and we're going to have to learn how to teach in that environment. We're going to have to learn how to create working experiences in that environment and really ensure that our students have the skill set to communicate and break through in that hybrid environment.” MSU Today airs every Sunday morning at 9:00 on 105.1 FM, AM 870, and however you stream at home.
