In this episode of The Chad & Cheese Podcast, Jeff Taylor, the nutty professor behind Monster.com, crashes the mic to dish on job boards, entrepreneurial chaos, and why the hiring game's more bonkers than a squirrel on espresso. He takes us on a nostalgia trip through Monster's heyday, chuckling at how Indeed swooped in like a job-posting ninja and the LinkedIn deal hit like a plot twist in a bad rom-com—spoiler: LinkedIn won. Taylor's saga is a hoot: from birthing Monster, to getting a decade-long MBA beatdown from Ray Dalio at Bridgewater (think Wall Street with extra yelling), to now pimping his new gig, BoomBand, which promises to rescue resumes and job postings from the stone age—because who needs parchment scrolls in 2025? He cracks up over flops like Eons—“Facebook handed me my lunch”—and slings zingers like “Jeff Taylor is back, bitches,” while preaching that job seekers are the real MVPs, job boards are deader than disco, and keeping market share is like wrestling a greased pig. With a gleam in his eye, he's hell-bent on jazzing up resumes to strut past, present, and future vibes, proving that thriving in this HR tech madhouse means diving headfirst into the crazy—and maybe dodging a few industry punches along the way.

Flying So Low(Fi) 04/01/25With Jordan otherwise occupied and Jeff busy on a work trip, today's offering is truly a solo dispatch, cobbled together from iPhone recordings and found musical pieces from old episodes.

Mr. Consistent: Sidney Crosby Grabs Gretzky's NHL Point-Per-Game Record! 03/27/25With an original working title of ‘Passenger Princess,' production/release of this episode was delayed until close to the start of this evening's road game versus the Sabres. And wouldn't ya know it? Just as I sat down to knock out the edit and get this one posted, Sidney Crosby does what he does best: Contribute to his team's offense. It was a beautiful goal, featuring many of Crosby's best attributes as an athlete and a teammate: On-ice awareness, positional intelligence, and a practiced ability to have quick hands, even from tough angles.The puck ended up on Sid's stick as he floated to the net front, and even though it was in-tight to his body, the captain managed to get a super-fast shot off, beating Billy Reimer high on the glove-side. Just incredible.From us here at Fly Penguins Fly Podcast: Congratulations to Sidney Crosby on a monumental achievement, as he passes Wayne Gretzky to possess the longest-ever season streak of point-per-game play in the NHL.Thanks to Espresso A Mano, Pittsburgh's finest coffee roasters and cafe, for partnering with Fly Penguins Fly podcast.

"The hiring industry is at a breaking point—AI is putting pressure on old systems that were never designed for this level of automation."–Jeff TaylorIn this episode of Psych Tech @ Work, I am joined by Jeff Taylor, serial entrepreneur and founder of Monster.com, & Boomband a revolutionary new platform that is looking to turn hiring on its ear.Few people have shaped the hiring industry as profoundly as Jeff, whose vision transformed job search from a niche experiment into an industry standard. Jeff's journey—from building the first large-scale job board to continuously innovating in the talent acquisition space—gives him a unique perspective on where hiring technology has been and where it's headed, making him the perfect guest to explore the next big disruptions in talent acquisition and how AI is reshaping the hiring process..  In our time together we reminisce about the story behind Monster's memorable Superbowl ads. (Who can forget the kid saying:  “I want to claw my way up to middle management!” ) and the formative impact my job at Monster (circa 2000) has had on my career.  But enough about me!  Our conversation explores the rapid acceleration of AI in recruiting, from automating sourcing and matching to the potential risks of AI-generated applications flooding hiring systems. Jeff happily shares his candid thoughts on why hiring technology has stagnated, how AI is creating new challenges for recruiters, and what companies must do to stay ahead in an increasingly automated hiring landscape. We also discuss the core concepts behind Boomband, Jeff's new social hiring platform.Topics Covered:* Monster.com's origin story and how it transformed hiring and created the “job board” industry.* The shift from traditional job search to AI-driven sourcing and candidate matching and what this means for the future of hiring.* The pros and cons of AI-generated resumes and job applications—are we heading toward an overload of unqualified applicants?* The failure of legacy hiring systems to keep up with modern job-seeker behavior.* The potential for AI to create more personalized and predictive hiring experiences and Boomband Jeff's new venture that is focused on creating a new paradigm for hiring (again!).Takeaways:* Job boards revolutionized hiring—but they haven't evolved fast enough. The core concept of posting jobs and waiting for applications hasn't fundamentally changed in decades.* AI is making job search more efficient but also more chaotic. Automated resume generation and mass applications are overwhelming recruiters and breaking traditional applicant tracking systems.* Legacy hiring technology is struggling to adapt. The demand for AI-powered sourcing and skills-based hiring is exposing the limitations of old-school job posting and resume-matching platforms.* The next frontier of hiring is predictive and personalized. Jeff envisions AI-driven career pathing, real-time job market intelligence, and new ways to match candidates based on abilities, not just experience.Jeff's perspective on AI-driven hiring, the changing nature of job search, and where hiring technology must go next makes this conversation a must-listen for anyone interested in the future of work.

We finally get back to racing! This week, it's the Daytona 500! Brett McMillan welcomes Doug Rice of PRN, and Jeff Taylor of The CW, Charlotte.

It feels like Recruiting has come a long way since the days of help-wanted ads in newspapers, but are we genuinely innovating or just consistently repackaging outdated ways of doing things? For well over a century, versions of the resume and job ad have been the foundation of hiring, but as technology and work itself move on at an ever-increasing pace, it's clear these tools weren't designed for the world we are now in. So, can we finally move beyond them to build a solid foundation for an AI-powered approach?  My guest on Episode 670 is one of the original pioneers of online recruiting, Jeff Taylor, the founder of Monster.com, or the MonsterBoard as it was known back in 1994. Jeff built Monster during the infancy of the internet when the rest of the industry was still faxing resumes and placing ever more expensive ads in the newspapers. He introduced the world to online job postings and the resume database, which, very much to his surprise and increasing alarm, are still core tenets of recruiting 30 years later. Jeff is now back in the industry and is launching a new business later in the year. In our conversation, we discuss the need for innovation and reinvention in recruiting to harness AI and address complex challenges employers now face.  In the interview, we discuss: Jeff and Monster's back story and what recruiting was like in 1994  The early days of the internet and what helped Monster to scale to 100 million registered resumes Resumes and job postings have barely changed in over 100 years, and why this is now a big problem. How AI is reshaping recruitment without addressing its foundational inadequacies  How employers are losing control of their own job postings Looking at the whole person and the growing importance of the personal brand What the future of hiring looks like when we put people, not processes, at the centre What's next for Jeff Follow this podcast on Apple Podcasts.

It feels like Recruiting has come a long way since the days of help-wanted ads in newspapers, but are we genuinely innovating or just consistently repackaging outdated ways of doing things? For well over a century, versions of the resume and job ad have been the foundation of hiring, but as technology and work itself move on at an ever-increasing pace, it's clear these tools weren't designed for the world we are now in. So, can we finally move beyond them to build a solid foundation for an AI-powered approach?  My guest on Episode 670 is one of the original pioneers of online recruiting, Jeff Taylor, the founder of Monster.com, or the MonsterBoard as it was known back in 1994. Jeff built Monster during the infancy of the internet when the rest of the industry was still faxing resumes and placing ever more expensive ads in the newspapers. He introduced the world to online job postings and the resume database, which, very much to his surprise and increasing alarm, are still core tenets of recruiting 30 years later. Jeff is now back in the industry and is launching a new business later in the year. In our conversation, we discuss the need for innovation and reinvention in recruiting to harness AI and address complex challenges employers now face.  In the interview, we discuss: Jeff and Monster's back story and what recruiting was like in 1994  The early days of the internet and what helped Monster to scale to 100 million registered resumes Resumes and job postings have barely changed in over 100 years, and why this is now a big problem.

Jesse Marshall: The Cost Of Winning 01/16/25The Pittsburgh Penguins yesterday placed franchise goalie Tristan Jarry on waivers, effectively banishing him to the American Hockey League on an indefinite basis. We're lucky enough to be joined today by The Athletic's own Jesse Marshall. An experienced hockey writer for numerous outlets, Jesse is the co-creator of the Dying Alive podcast, as well as a regular contributor to McKeen's Hockey. With elite hockey IQ - at least as a writer and a keen analyzer of game tape - it is the opinion of our producer and co-host Jeff Taylor, that it's long past time Kyle Dubas hired Jesse in a hockey analytics role.

Episode #327 of The VentureFizz Podcast features Reed Sturtevant, General Partner at Engine Ventures. This is exciting! Why? Because this episode is longer than my normal interviews, as Reed and I cover his career that spans multiple decades across major technological platform shifts. This means that based on his career, he has so many great stories to share. It is like a historical walkthrough of the Boston tech scene. We even had to do two sessions, so if you are watching this video from our YouTube channel then you'll notice the different sweaters that Reed is wearing. Today, Reed is a General Partner at Engine Ventures, a “tough tech” venture capital firm launched by MIT and trust me on this one, as you'll want to stay tuned throughout the whole episode! Here is an outline of what we cover: * Reed's background story, including graduating from high school at 15 years old, his experience as a factory worker and his studies at MIT. * Developing a program called Freelance Graphics at a startup that was acquired by Lotus and his experience there, which was twice the size of Microsoft at the time. * Co-Founding Radnet, which raised the largest venture round of its time in Boston. * Running company development in Boston for IdeaLab, Bill Gross' internet incubator which spun out companies like Compete, Picasa and others. * Meeting Katie Rae at EONS, a startup founded by Jeff Taylor, and then running Microsoft Startup Labs. * Launching Project 11 Ventures with Katie and then running Techstar Boston together which included many successful companies like GrabCAD, PillPack, and others. * Founder conflict and how it can destroy a startup. * The details of Engine Ventures and what Reed is targeting for investments, plus portfolio company examples. * What it was like leading a course at MIT with Sir Tim Berners-Lee. * And so much more.

We have a special Thursday presentation of the virtual coffeehouse with Jeff Taylor calling in from the band Farmer.
