Jordan Shlosberg: Why agency recruiters will win (and internal TA won't)Jordan Shlosberg runs Atlas CRM—the fastest-growing, AI-native recruitment platform in the world.Thousands of recruiters use his technology every day. Real-time data. Real billings. Real problems being solved.If anyone knows what's actually working with AI in recruitment, it's him."Internal talent teams have a lot to worry about. Agency recruiters? There's a renaissance coming."Here's why:Agency recruiters have years of candidate conversations. Reference calls. Market knowledge built through relationships. The ability to cut through 1,500 AI-generated applications with actual insight.Internal TA has a resume. Sometimes a screening call. That's it.But here's the problem: agency recruitment only represents 7-8% of all hires in Europe.We could grow our share massively. Or we could shrink into irrelevance.The difference? How quickly we become AI-literate.This week on The RAG Podcast, Jordan and I go deep on what's actually happening in recruitment AI.We cover:Why Atlas crossed $1M ARR in 10 months while the market contractedHow clients are growing from 4 to 15 seats in under a yearThe fatal flaw in "agentic job boards" like Jack & JillWhy sourcing platforms only show you 50% of LinkedIn's dataThe partnership we're launching to make recruiters top 5% AI usersThis isn't another "AI is coming for your job" panic post.This is strategic intelligence from someone watching what actually works across thousands of recruiters every day.__________________________________________Episode Sponsor: AtlasAdmin is a massive waste of time.

My guest this week is Andrew Hulbert, founder of Pareto FM, who started his business from his bedroom at 27 with no name, network, or funding and grew it to a £42 million turnover before exiting less than a decade later.Andrew's story is one of calculated risk, relentless focus, and smart scaling. From landing his first £200,000 contract with the Bulgari Hotel to winning major clients like Twitter, ASOS, and Deliveroo, his approach to business growth was simple: do what big companies get wrong, and do it exceptionally well.In this episode, we discuss the realities of starting from zero, why being “too small” can become your biggest advantage, and how creating sweet equity helped him retain every senior hire across nine years. Andrew also shares what life looks like post-exit. Family, friends, and purpose and what it truly takes to let go without losing identity.If you're at the stage where you're thinking of starting, scaling, or selling, this conversation will help you think more strategically about risk, people, and purpose.Key Takeaways:Start with One Win: Focus on getting your first deal, not the perfect business plan. Momentum starts with movement.People Are Everything: Hire for motivation, not CVs. Pareto's 17 senior leaders stayed through to exit because they shared the vision and had skin in the game.Be Willing to Bet on Growth: Andrew's decision to reinvest £1 million into overheads helped double the company's value in two years.Know When to Step Back: The biggest challenge isn't starting, it's letting go. Learning to trust others is what takes a founder from operator to leader.Redefine Success After Exit: Freedom doesn't come from a payout, it comes from presence—being there for family, friends, and yourself.

Over some Japanese whisky, we sit down with Gabe Navarro to talk about the family legacy behind the Navarro Pharmacy chain, a true Miami institution. Gabe shares what it was like growing up in the business, from sweeping floors and stocking shelves to ultimately helping lead the company through its major exit to CVS.We get into how he and his siblings transformed Navarro from a neighborhood pharmacy brand into a real estate powerhouse, investing in shopping centers across Florida, developing multifamily projects, and even purchasing a ski resort in Idaho.Gabe's story is one of family, vision, and generational success, and he's as genuine and humble as they come.Connect with usWant to dive deeper into Miami's commercial real estate scene?

Good morning from Pharma Daily: the podcast that brings you the most important developments in the pharmaceutical and biotech world. Today's focus is on a series of significant advancements that are poised to reshape the landscape of drug development, regulatory standards, and patient care.Eli Lilly has made remarkable strides with its dual-action obesity medications, Zepbound and Mounjaro. Despite being removed from the CVS formulary, these drugs have achieved exceptional sales figures, reaching $10 billion in a single quarter. This success can be attributed to Lilly's innovative direct-to-consumer sales strategy, which exemplifies how modern marketing approaches can overcome traditional market barriers. Additionally, Eli Lilly's partnership with Walmart to expand access to Zepbound through retail pharmacy pickups exemplifies a strategic approach to enhancing patient access to crucial medications. By leveraging Walmart's extensive retail network, this collaboration facilitates easier access to obesity treatments—a significant public health challenge—enhancing both patient convenience and broadening market reach for Lilly's products. These achievements not only highlight the potential of strategic marketing but also underscore a growing demand for effective obesity treatments within the pharmaceutical industry.In another exciting development, Alnylam Pharmaceuticals has reported impressive sales figures for Amvuttra, a treatment for transthyretin amyloid cardiomyopathy. Surpassing analysts' expectations, this success signals a growing market for treatments targeting rare diseases and emphasizes the importance of strategic market expansion to reach underserved patient populations.Meanwhile, Bristol Myers Squibb's anticipated schizophrenia treatment, Cobenfy, has experienced a lukewarm market entry. While meeting initial expectations in its first year, it has yet to create the breakthrough impact investors anticipated. This situation highlights the challenges even well-hyped pharmaceuticals face upon launch and underscores the need for continuous strategic planning to ensure market penetration and sustained growth.A surprising development in mergers and acquisitions comes from Novo Nordisk's $6.5 billion counteroffer to acquire Metsera, an obesity biotech initially targeted by Pfizer. This aggressive move reflects intense competition in the obesity drug market and illustrates the high stakes involved in acquiring promising biotech assets that could potentially transform treatment paradigms for chronic conditions like obesity.The vaccine industry is navigating its own set of challenges with declining sales across the board. However, Merck's adult pneumococcal vaccine Capvaxive has shown promising initial sales figures. As the first pneumococcal vaccine specifically designed for adults, Capvaxive indicates a potential niche market that Merck could successfully capture.On the regulatory front, significant measures are being taken by the FDA to boost biosimilar availability against drug pricing pressures. New draft guidance aims to eliminate clinical testing requirements for biosimilars and categorize all approved biosimilars as "interchangeable." This initiative could significantly reduce biologic medicine costs post-patent expiration and increase competition in the market, potentially making essential medications more accessible to patients. Additionally, the FDA is proposing streamlined biosimilar approval pathways aimed at reducing overall bio-drug costs—a welcome move reflecting concerted efforts to make essential medications more affordable and accessible globally.Argenx has reported positive trial results for Vyvgart in treating generalized myasthenia gravis (gMG), highlighting its commitment to addressing unmet needs within this patient population. These findings could expand treatment options for gMG patients who have been previously overlooked in thSupport the show

In this episode of Building Better Developers, hosts Rob Broadhead and Michael Meloche continue their conversation with Agustin Morrone, CEO and co-founder of Vintti, a company improving the remote hiring process for U.S. and Canadian businesses across Latin America. From his base in Barcelona, Agustin explains how Vintti combines AI, automation, and cultural alignment to build remote teams faster while keeping people at the center. Vintti's mission remains clear: help companies hire top Latin American talent in under 21 days, saving up to 60 percent on payroll while maintaining quality and trust. In Part 2, we explore how Vintti's evolving systems make the remote hiring process smarter and more scalable. Using AI to Strengthen the Remote Hiring Process Vintti's young, tech-driven team approaches work with an “AI-first mindset.” Rather than replacing people, AI removes repetitive tasks that slow down the remote hiring process. Originally, every interview was manual. Now, AI manages more than half of all first-round interviews, rating English proficiency and technical expertise. Recruiters then step in to evaluate communication style and cultural fit. “AI helps us focus on what matters most,” Agustin says. “It saves time and allows our recruiters to build stronger relationships.” Automation Tools That Simplify Remote Recruitment Vintti automates much of its communication and reporting to improve efficiency. Instead of sending raw resumes, it builds custom, client-ready CVs using AI. Each profile merges data from interviews, LinkedIn, and client discussions into a consistent, easy-to-read document. Automated follow-ups and feedback loops help recruiters stay engaged throughout the remote hiring process, keeping clients informed without losing the human connection. Automation drives consistency, but empathy drives connection. Human Insight: The Key to Remote Hiring Success AI helps identify top candidates, yet it can't replace intuition. Recruiters still assess tone, enthusiasm, and motivation—critical elements of cultural fit. Similarly, Vintti maintains personal conversations with each client to understand company culture before sourcing talent. This ensures every step of the hiring process reflects both human judgment and data-driven insight. Testing, Learning, and Improving the Remote Hiring Process Experimentation fuels progress at Vintti. Recruiters rely heavily on LinkedIn but constantly test new tools to expand reach and reduce friction. “We test, compare, and adapt,” Agustin explains. “If a tool adds value, we scale it. If not, we move on.” This culture of experimentation keeps the hiring process innovative and resilient. Cultural Patterns in Global Recruiting Regional patterns help Vintti understand candidate strengths. Colombian professionals often shine in customer support, Argentines excel in sales, and Mexican talent frequently leads in finance. However, Agustin cautions against stereotyping. “Patterns are helpful, but people are unique,” he says. That perspective ensures fairness and flexibility in every hiring process decision. Supporting Global Teams After Placement Once hired, contractors integrate fully into client organizations. Vintti provides behind-the-scenes support—helping with taxes, communication skills, and professional development—while avoiding cultural interference. Support Principle: Empower independence and provide structure. This hands-off guidance strengthens relationships and keeps the hiring process transparent from start to finish. Discipline and Growth in the Hiring Journey Internally, Agustin looks for self-motivated people who take ownership. He values discipline over motivation, believing that commitment leads to better long-term outcomes. “Motivation fades, but discipline lasts,” he explains. This mindset ensures every member of the Vintti team contributes to refining the hiring process daily. The Future of the Remote Hiring Process Agustin believes AI will reshape global recruiting. While some jobs will change, others will grow. Vintti plans to: Identify new skill trends early. Use automation and AI to make hiring faster and smarter. “Companies that work with AI—not against it—will win,” Agustin concludes. Key Takeaway Agustin Morrone's story shows that the modern remote hiring process depends on balance. AI delivers speed and consistency, while people provide connection and understanding. Together, they build stronger teams worldwide. Learn more about their mission at www.vintti.com.

It's that time again! It's October. The sun goes down in the afternoon now. Night has a chill. And at CVS and Walgreens, they are already putting up the Christmas decorations. That's right, it's Halloween. But none of that for us! We are firmly planted in autumn. As Ray Bradbury once wrote, “Something, something, something, autumn something.” By Ray Bradbury. We have enough show here to stuff your pillowcase, so grab a bag of candy and settle back. Howard Berger and Marshall Julius are here to discuss their new book, Making Monsters, inside stories from the creators of Hollywood's most iconic creatures. This is a terrific book, basically it's a high school yearbook for professional monster kids. Rick Baker, Tom Savini, Michael Giacchino, Larry Karaszewski, Ve Neill, Richard Edlund, Derek Mears, Bill Corso, David Dastmalchian, Mick Garris, Mike Mendez. The list goes on and on and on. Monster kids who grew up but never put it away, and followed their passions right into show business. Packed with photos and interviews, it's really a terrific piece. Making Monsters, by Howard Berger. The Academy Award winning make up artist, he is the B in KNB FX and Marshall Julius, author and film critic and - get this – he's British. He's from the United States of Britain. Daren Docterman is also here. Daren is an illustrator and set designer, he's worked on The Abyss, Monster House, Master and Commander, he was the VFX supervisor on the director's cut of Star Trek - The Motion Picture. He, along with Mark Altman and Ashley Miller, make up The Inglourious Trexperts. Check out that podcast. And, like Howard Berger and Marshall Julius. He's a pal. We've had meals. Quite a few. Daren Dochterman. True Tales From Weirdsville takes a deep dive into American International Pictures and it's genre output in the '50s and '60s. It gave us Roger Corman, It Conquered The World, Invasion Of The Saucer Men, The Amazing Colossal Man, I Was a Teenage Werewolf. And then it segued into the '60s with the Vincent Price / Edgar Allen Poe films like The House Of Usher, The Pit and The Pendulum, and so and and so forth. And then, as a Halloween bonus, we're going to go back into the archives and present you the True Tales we did on Orson Welles' War Of The Worlds broadcast. It's all here. It's all for you. And now, I can hear the kids at the door, and so it is on to our filthy business.

Week 7 was pure chaos. From AFC North embarrassment to NFC contenders flexing their muscle. The Bums break down every matchup, call out frauds, and somehow defend Joe Flacco's late-career heater.Steelers @ Bengals:“Both of these teams stink.” The AFC North looks like a dumpster fire, but somehow Joe Flacco keeps throwing dimes. Tomlin's seat might finally be getting warm.Rams vs Jaguars (London):What exactly are the Jaguars? Trevor Lawrence might be broken. The Rams, meanwhile, look like a legit Super Bowl contender overseas.Raiders @ Chiefs:Raiders stink. Chiefs cruise. Vegas refuses to trade Maxx Crosby for some reason.Patriots @ Titans:Do the Titans even like football anymore? Vrabel's team looks lost, and Henderson can't buy a carry. Tennessee might be headed for 1–16 territory.Dolphins @ Browns:The Browns blow out Miami. With -400 odds of being fired next, when will Mike McDaniel be set free?Panthers @ Jets:Justin Fields benched, Tyrod Taylor in. The Jets' season is a catastrophe. The Panthers aren't good either, but someone had to win this rock fight.Eagles @ Vikings:Philly gets right. Minnesota's QB situation makes zero sense. J.J. McCarthy's healthy but benched “for rest.” Sure.Colts @ Chargers:Indy looks playoff-ready, while the Chargers are just dumb football right now. Injured or not, it's the same old story.Packers @ Cardinals:Green Bay sneaks by again. “Glass half full, 4-1-1. Glass half empty, you're almost losing to bad teams.” The Cardinals? Just unpleasant.Commanders @ Cowboys:Are the Commanders bottoming out? Jayden Daniels adds a “knee injury” to his resume. Dallas offense looked frisky, defense, not so much.Giants @ Broncos:Broncos drop 33 in the 4th, but the Giants' kicker ruins everything.Falcons @ 49ers:Kyle Shanahan might be Coach of the Year. The Falcons continue their Jekyll & Hyde routine, no clue which team will show up weekly.Buccaneers @ Lions:The Lions roll while the Bucs' injury list reads like a CVS receipt. Too banged up to compete.Texans @ Seahawks:The Seahawks are fun again. Houston remains the NFL's biggest mystery. “What is C.J. Stroud?”Saints @ Bears:Sloppy but telling. The Bears have a real coach, a real run game, and a defense that showed up. Caleb Williams was off, but it didn't matter. Spencer Rattler? Rough day.

Matt Fox achieved a life-changing exit and walked away in 90 days!Matt Fox was 72 hours from a multi-seven-figure exit when COVID killed the deal.What followed: a complete breakdown, 2 years of therapy, and a total rebuild.But he did it differently the second time.Cut from 30 stressed employees to 10 people he loved. Stripped costs. Turned it into a cash machine. By 40, he'd cleared his mortgage and bought Spanish properties with cash.Then, in November 2024, he sold the business and walked away in 3 months.In this episode:Why scaling to 30 people nearly destroyed himThe "cash cow" strategy that made him wealthy before the exitHow to build a team that doesn't need youWhat selling a business actually feels like (the bit nobody warns you about)Why 80% of recruitment founders get exits wrongThis isn't your typical scale-and-sell story.

We reject more candidates every week than most brands/agencies will reject in a year of hiring for this role.It's safe to assume that if someone does just 2 things every day - 1) manage 8-figure ad accounts and 2) recruit senior Amazon PPC managers - then they'll be better at hiring for that role than most of the population.They'll be better than you, the $250k/mo brand owner who's not truly been hands on in ads for 12 months.They'll be better than the eCommerce recruitment firm who's recruiter has never seen Seller Central, let alone adjusted a bid. "We reviewed these CVs for you and they seem worth a chat - 25% invoice incoming." They'll be better than your current hire who's been managing Amazon PPC for 3-years now (our team's been doing it 10-years).They'll be better than your HR team who have absolutely no idea about AMC becoming freely available to all sellers.They'll be better than me, George Reid, the Amazon agency owner of 8-years, who simply isn't qualified to make a decision on someone's Amazon ad expertise...because I haven't done it every day for a decade.

After completing her BA in Finance from Texas Southern University, she rejoined tgin® as a rotational employee in May 2017.As one of the youngest CEOs in the beauty industry, her remarkable achievements haven't gone unnoticed. Aris has graced the pages of esteemed publications such as Rolling Out and The Chicago Defender's Women of Excellence and was recently highlighted as Walmart's SheEO Beauty Disruptor. She continues to grow the brand while honoring the legacy of her late aunt and tgin founder, Chris-Tia Donaldson, who passed away from breast cancer in 2021.Beyond its commercial success, tgin is also deeply committed to community impact. Through the tgin Foundation, the brand supports women battling breast cancer, raises awareness about health disparities, and advocates for early detection, especially among women under 40. Although breast cancer mortality rates have declined overall, African American women still face disproportionately higher death rates. The foundation is working to close that gap.Links:https://tginatural.com/?srsltid=AfmBOoqkdNzMCDEwjoMtAHW6Qrp44xuilkortj22HOWtMJcZXNmI-sGghttps://tginatural.com/pages/about https://www.instagram.com/tginatural/ https://www.instagram.com/tginari/ News from TheTease.com:https://www.thetease.com/six-muk-hair-products-that-completely-changed-my-wash-day-routine/https://www.thetease.com/rachel-polycarpe-on-how-to-get-olivia-deans-big-and-bodacious-acl-music-festival-texture/More from TheTease.com:Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/readthetease/ (readthetease)Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/volumeupbythetease/ (volumeupbythetease)Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/kellyehlers/ / (KellyEhlers)Instagram:

It's Dallas Week! The Washington Commanders (3-3) head to Arlington to take on the Dallas Cowboys (2-3-1) in one of the oldest rivalries in the NFL.This week's episode begins with the All-22 Review vs Chicago Bears. What went well? What didn't? Who gets a game ball?We begin, as we always do, with the injury report for the game. The Commanders injury report is basically a CVS receipt, with any number of important players on it, including WRs Deebo Samuel and Terry McLaurin. Noah Brown was recently placed on IR, meaning he is going to miss at least 4 more games. In response, the Commanders have signed former Titans WR Treylon Burks. The Cowboys, in the meanwhile, are getting healthier, with Tyler Booker and CeeDee Lamb tracking to be back. Trevon Diggs, however, misses out.The Commanders offense, featuring Jayden Daniels, takes on a Cowboys defense that is the worst they'll come across all season. They are dead last in yards per game, passer rating allowed per game, and numerous other categories. How will we fare against them with Terry McLaurin and Noah Brown out once again?The Commanders defense goes against Dak Prescott, George Pickens, CeeDee Lamb, Jake Ferguson, Javonte Williams and this high flying Dallas Cowboys offense that ranks #1 in the NFL. How do our defense match up with them?The Commanders are road underdogs by 1.5 points and the over-under is 54.5 points. What is your prediction for this game?The Comment Mailbag features 10 comments. Thank you all for the comments!

Kroger announces plans to use DoorDash's Dashmart fulfillment service for delivery, joining CVS and other retailers. This comes as Kroger re-examines its Ocado automated warehouse infrastructure and expands DoorDash delivery to all 2,700 stores. Chris worries this signals a lost e-commerce strategy, while Anne focuses on the need for in-store automation. The hosts debate whether Kroger is making the right moves or swinging the pendulum too far away from owned infrastructure toward third-party marketplaces. #Kroger #DoorDash #GroceryDelivery #Ecommerce #Ocado #Instacart #RetailStrategy #OnlineGrocery #MicroFulfillment

Cecil Brockman facing serious sexual assault charges, Iryna's Law signed into law, new political candidates emerging, a major rumor being substantiated, and Taylor's new album reviewed.

This week, on episode 1 of season 9 of The RAG Podcast, I'm joined by Samm Green, co-founder of Few & Far, a UK-based product management recruitment business with 22 people and a powerful story of resilience.Samm was the very first guest I ever recorded on The RAG back in 2019, and at that time, he had big plans to scale to 40 staff and eventually exit. While some of that came true, the road since has been far from smooth.In this episode, Samm opens up about: - The financial and emotional toll of losing over £350,000 during the market downturn. - How burnout and stress led to physical illness and a trip to A&E. - The decision to rebuild and focus on profit, not just growth. - Why transparency and community have been key to recovery. - How he's turned the business around to be on track for £1m EBITDA in 2025.This is one of the most honest conversations I've ever had on The RAG. It's a story about resilience, leadership and learning what success really means when the pressure hits hardest.Chapters00:00 Sam Green's Journey02:53 The Growth and Challenges of Few&Far05:55 Navigating the Post-COVID Landscape09:00 The Impact of Financial Loss on Mental Health11:27 Lessons Learned from Redundancies and Business Cuts14:36 Rebuilding and Regaining Profitability17:20 The Importance of Mental Health in Business20:17 Strategies for Business Development and Community Building23:16 The Future of Recruitment in a Changing Market26:00 Personal Reflections and Future Aspirations28:48 Conclusion and Final Thoughts__________________________________________Episode Sponsor: AtlasAdmin is a massive waste of time.

This week on Two Parents & A Podcast, we're joined by Rachael Shepard-Ohta, a pediatric sleep expert and founder of Hey, Sleepy Baby — to talk about what evidenced-based sleep methods that ACTUALLY work and how to get better sleep without “training” your baby. We get into it all: what to do in those first sleepless newborn weeks, when (if ever) to expect a routine, and why traditional sleep training isn't the only way. Rachael explains why baby sleep isn't linear, how to handle night wakings, and what safe co-sleeping can look like for families who choose it.

Maria Marino, Alex Berstein, and Katherine Anne Koury are the Co-founders of Panic Panties, a premium, ready-to-wear underwear brand sold in airports, boutiques, hospitals, Walgreens, and over 5,000 CVS stores nationwide. With over 16 million brand hashtag views on TikTok, Panic Panties has won the Women Business Enterprise National Council's (WBENC) national pitch competition for innovation and has been named Hot Undergarments by Star magazine. Maria, Alex, and Katherine Anne founded the company at Syracuse University after noticing a lack of attractive, on-the-go underwear options.  In this episode… Purchasing underwear in a pinch is a common yet overlooked problem for women on the go. Whether after a workout, during travel, or in unexpected situations, traditional retail options fall short, offering unappealing, bulk-packaged choices. How did three best friends turn a shared frustration into an essential brand? Dissatisfied by the lack of on-the-go underwear options on the market, Maria Marino, Alex Bernstein, and Katherine Anne Koury teamed up to create a premium, ready-to-wear underwear line designed for convenience and style. Their innovative approach and strategic retail partnerships with Walgreens and CVS have fueled Panic Panties' rapid growth. The trio promotes their products by producing viral social media content, facilitating community events, and hosting a life-sized panty costume that appeared in high-traffic areas like Times Square and the Vegas Strip. Through social media engagement and a commitment to sustainability, Maria, Alex, and Katherine Anne have penetrated a niche market with an innovative solution.  Tune in to the latest episode of the Lead Like a Woman Show as Andrea Heuston chats with Maria Marino, Alex Bernstein, and Katherine Anne Koury, Co-founders of Panic Panties, about how they scaled their brand. Together, they discuss the brand's manufacturing and development process, their future endeavors for Panic Panties, and how they broke into major retail chains.

Patrick opens this episode of The Patrick Madrid Show with a heartfelt conversation with Josh, a new Catholic convert from Los Angeles, about the Church's role in a rapidly changing culture and the ongoing impact of the Second Vatican Council. Drawing from decades of study and experience, Patrick explains how historical and cultural forces from the 1960s continue to affect Catholic life today and offers practical advice to new converts about staying spiritually grounded and resisting the pull of online negativity. The episode also touches on timely topics like pharmacy vaccination incentives and the spread of AI-generated misinformation, all while Patrick encourages listeners to focus on faith and community amid modern challenges.
