The Resilient Recruiter
How AI-First Recruiting Could Save Your Business Or Kill It, with Manan Shah

The Resilient Recruiter

Play Episode Listen Later Oct 2, 2025


AI isn't coming to recruitment. It's already here. And the gap between recruiters who know how to use it and those who don't is widening fast. My guest today has data proving it: recruiters adopting AI correctly are seeing up to 30% increases in GP per desk. Manan Shah is CEO and co-founder of Recruiter Flow, an AI-first recruitment operating system built for search firms, agencies, and solo practitioners doing permanent and contract placements. After accidentally discovering that recruitment agencies were "a decade behind" in tech adoption, Manan and his team have built what could be the most comprehensive AI-enabled platform for modern recruiters. This conversation gets tactical. We discuss how to run your firm with SaaS-level business intelligence, AI note-taking that structures unstructured data, job change alerts that put you in front of clients at exactly the right moment, and multichannel sequencing that lets you scale BD without adding headcount. WHAT YOU'LL LEARN: RecOps: Stop Guessing, Start Measuring Many recruitment firm owners are flying blind. They figure out salary budgets, marketing spend, and incentive structures by gut feel. Manan introduces "RecOps" (Recruitment Operations), borrowed from how SaaS companies run. It means tracking the metrics that matter. In SaaS, they know their customer lifetime value versus what they spend to acquire that customer should be 3:1. You should be spending one-third or less of what a client is worth to you on getting them. Simple, but many recruitment firms haven't made this calculation. Successful firms are now hiring operations people who aren't recruiters but keep the business running tight. Job Change Alerts: Three Opportunities From One Signal When someone in your database changes jobs or gets promoted, you get three plays. First, that person's new company often needs more hires or creates turnover when they bring in their own team. Second, their old company needs to backfill. Third, the one most people miss: that person was probably interviewing elsewhere. Build rapport, and they might tell you about the other positions they turned down. Those companies might still be hiring. Recruiter Flow monitors your database automatically and pings you when these changes happen. Multichannel Sequencing: Scale Your BD Without Adding Headcount Many agencies rely on their best billers to also do all the business development. They're making calls when they remember, sending one-off emails, maybe a LinkedIn message here and there. Nothing systematic. Recruiter Flow's multichannel sequencing lets you map out an entire BD campaign with conditional logic. Send a LinkedIn connection request. If they accept in 3 days, send a message. If not, trigger an email instead. If they open your email 3+ times but don't reply, the system creates a task for your recruiter to call them. This means your team can run sophisticated, persistent BD campaigns that would normally require hiring a dedicated BD person. EPISODE HIGHLIGHTS: How Manan accidentally discovered the recruiting agency market and why one client signed a 3-year contract after less than a year in business What "RecOps" means and why recruitment firms need to adopt SaaS-style business intelligence AI-first vs. AI-bolted-on and why your ATS needs to be rebuilt from the ground up The three categories of AI adoption: AI-native, AI-assisted, and AI-augmented How AI note-taking captures tribal knowledge and turns it into searchable intelligence Data enrichment built in: contact finder, job change alerts, executive appointment monitoring Why it's a triple opportunity when someone changes jobs MPC automation with branded landing pages and client interaction tracking What's next: 40+ AI agents in development and the ability to build your own custom agents Why AI doesn't just lift the average but widens the gap between top and bottom performers ABOUT MANAN SHAH: Manan Shah is CEO and co-founder of Recruiter Flow, serving thousands of customers globally, from solo practitioners to firms generating over $100M in annual revenue. Before founding Recruiter Flow in 2015, Manan built his first AI company in 2013, long before AI became mainstream.

YoutubeInstagramAmazonFacebookBioThe video for “Neon Dreamers,” the latest single from Arcade Knights, opens on a futuristic cityscape reminiscent of Blade Runner or Tron. As the visuals unfold, soaring vintage synthesizers and thunderous reverb-soaked drums create a cinematic soundscape. Digitized female vocals deliver the track's core message:We're the neon dreamers lighting up the skyChasing our tomorrow, never asking whyWith our hearts electric, breaking through the darkIn this digital world, we'll make our markEvoking the atmosphere of the Stranger Things soundtrack as much as Daft Punk, the song explores a timeless question: What does it mean to be human in a world dominated by machines?That question lies at the heart of Arcade Knights, the synthwave-cyberpunk electronic project of Canadian musician Dean Parsons. Known for his deep love of 1980s drum machines and synthesizers, Parsons incorporates authentic hardware such as the LinnDrum and Oberheim OB-8 into his work. While modern software can replicate these sounds, he prefers the analog warmth and tactile experience of physical instruments, embracing the buttons, knobs, and patch cables that bring a unique authenticity to his production process.Unlike most contemporary producers, Parsons creates entirely outside of a digital audio workstation. Every track is written, recorded, and mixed using his MPC hardware sequencer, a process he believes allows more emotion to come through the physical act of playing.“My main production machine is not a DAW,” he explains. “Every track, every note, every melody is crafted and recorded through purpose-built hardware. There's a lot of heart that comes through the keys and pads.”“Neon Dreamers” serves as a companion piece to Cyber Hack, the full-length album released earlier this year. The record tells the story of hackers raised in an AI-driven world who use their skills to protect humanity, ensuring technology serves people rather than controlling them.The theme reflects Parsons' own life. Growing up in the 1980s surrounded by Commodore 64s and science-fiction films like Terminator and RoboCop, and later working as a cybersecurity expert, he has lived at the intersection of the analog and digital worlds.“It's important to embrace technology, but not let it control your life,” Parsons says. “Technology is advancing rapidly, and if we continue to depend on it blindly, it may begin to control us. I love technology, but it's a double-edged sword. The message of Cyber Hack is that we must remain the ones in control.”Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/creator-to-creators-with-meosha-bean--4460322/support.

Blockchains operate as a public ledger, ‘disclosing' the entire transaction history and associated data to everyone. While verifiability and traceability are key traits, as blockchains gain global adoption, those very features hinder the process. Self custody, on-chain identities, corporate strategies, transaction history, private deals, all represent highly sensitive information that call for provable confidentiality. Fully homomorphic encryption has long been considered the ‘holy grail' of cryptography as it enables computation to be performed on encrypted data without the need of prior decryption. This basically translates to true end-to-end encryption, both on-chain and off-chain. As cryptographic research advances, so does the scalability and applicability of FHE. As a result of more than 5 years of work, Zama has now released Zama Protocol, which enables confidential smart contracts on top of any L1 or L2 using FHE, without any additional execution burden. By encrypting all ciphertexts with the same public key, FHE ensures composability and seamless integration across different blockchains and applications, making it a true cross-chain confidentiality layer. Through parallel execution, Zama Protocol already surpasses Ethereum's throughput, yet future roadmap includes open-source development of FPGA & ASIC in order to scale it even further, to accommodate faster, non-EVM chains.Topics covered in this episode:Zama's progress in FHEZama's confidential blockchain ProtocolSecurity guarantees of MPC coprocessorsMaintaining a healthy operator setSlashing and governanceZama's throughputOpen-sourcing FPGA & ASIC developmentThe Zama token & its implicationsZama's public testnetPrivate votingZama fundingRegulationsExpanding use cases beyond blockchainsFuture goals and expectationsEpisode links:Rand Hindi on XZama on XSponsors:Gnosis: Gnosis builds decentralized infrastructure for the Ethereum ecosystem, since 2015.

Why you should listen Everstake is a professional staking provider founded in 2018 by a team of Ukrainian engineers. The company specializes in Proof-of-Stake (PoS) validation, helping individuals and institutions participate in securing blockchain networks while earning staking rewards.

In terms of scale, the platform has worked with more than 735,000 stakers, facilitated over $6.5 billion in assets staked, and distributed around $712 million in rewards.

One of its most visible initiatives was managing the Aid for Ukraine crypto fundraising campaign, in partnership with the Ukrainian government and other industry players, which raised over $60 million for humanitarian and defense support. Recently, Everstake has also expanded into institutional services. Through a collaboration with io.finnet, it now enables enterprises to stake assets like ETH and SOL directly from secure multiparty computation (MPC) wallets, removing custodial risk while simplifying the staking process.

Understanding Inchoate Crimes: Definition and Significance In the world of criminal law, we often think of crimes in terms of completed acts. However, the legal system also prosecutes individuals for inchoate crimes, which are offenses that are not yet complete. The word "inchoate" comes from the Latin inchoare, meaning "to begin" or "to start," perfectly capturing the essence of these offenses.What are Inchoate Crimes?An inchoate crime is a crime of preparing for or seeking to commit another crime. These crimes are significant because they allow law enforcement to intervene and prevent more serious offenses from occurring. The core idea is that the intent to commit a crime, when coupled with a substantial step toward its commission, is itself a punishable offense. The three main types of inchoate crimes are:Attempt: This is perhaps the most common inchoate crime. It involves the specific intent to commit a crime and a significant act toward its commission. For example, if someone intends to rob a bank and is caught placing a ski mask and a weapon in their car as they drive to the bank, they could be charged with attempted robbery. The act must go beyond mere preparation and move toward the actual commission of the offense.Conspiracy: Conspiracy is an agreement between two or more people to commit a crime. The key element is the agreement itself, followed by an overt act by one of the co-conspirators in furtherance of the crime. The act doesn't have to be a crime in itself; it just needs to show that the plan is moving forward. For instance, if two people agree to steal a car and one of them buys a tool to break into it, they could both be charged with conspiracy.Solicitation: This involves persuading, encouraging, or commanding another person to commit a crime. The crime is complete once the person asks or hires someone to commit the offense, regardless of whether the other person agrees or if the crime is actually carried out. For example, if you offer a friend money to break into your rival's house, you could be charged with solicitation, even if your friend refuses.Why Are They So Important?The legal concept of inchoate crimes is vital for several reasons:Crime Prevention: Prosecuting inchoate crimes allows the criminal justice system to intervene before a more serious offense can be completed. This can save lives, prevent property damage, and protect the public. By arresting someone for attempted murder, for instance, a life is potentially saved.Punishing Dangerous Intent: Inchoate crimes recognize that the intent to harm, when combined with a concrete step toward that goal, is a social harm in itself. It demonstrates a dangerous mindset and a willingness to break the law, which warrants punishment regardless of the outcome.Deterrence: The existence of these laws acts as a deterrent. Knowing that you can be prosecuted for planning a crime, even if you don't succeed, may discourage people from taking those initial steps.Understanding inchoate crimes is crucial for anyone interested in law. These offenses highlight a fundamental principle of our legal system: criminal responsibility isn't solely based on outcomes, but also on intent and the actions taken to achieve that intent. They serve as a proactive measure to protect society from individuals who demonstrate a clear and present danger.TakeawaysInchoate crimes focus on incomplete actions towards a crime.Attempt requires specific intent and a substantial step.Conspiracy is a powerful prosecutorial tool due to its evidentiary advantages.The MPC allows for earlier intervention in criminal attempts than common law.Legal impossibility can be a defense to attempt, but factual impossibility is not.Conspiracy does not merge with the completed crime, unlike attempt and solicitation.Solicitation is complete upon making a request, regardless of the response.Withdrawal from conspiracy does not negate the conspiracy itself but can limit future liability.

Some excitement on Threadneedle Street today after the Bank of England cut interest rates to 4 per cent. The Bank's Monetary Policy Committee (MPC) has just voted five to four – after a revote – for what is the third cut this year. This takes interest rates back down to levels not seen since the beginning of 2023. Concerns about an increasingly slack labour market seem to have driven the MPC's decision.This sounds like good news – and Starmer will welcome it as such – but the Bank's apparent comfort with loosening policy in this context is baffling says Michael Simmons. Its own forecasts show inflation climbing back to 4 per cent by September – double the official target. If they're wrong, and inflation slips the leash again, it won't be brought back under control easily. This also coincides with yesterday's news that the National Institute of Economic and Social Research (NIESR) forecast that Rachel Reeves must find £50 billion of revenue or cuts if she is to return to the £9.9 billion of fiscal headroom she left herself in the spring. Are there any rays of light escaping from the black hole as we head towards autumn's Budget, or is it all gloom?Also on the podcast today: Trump's tariffs have come into effect across the world.

They discuss how Ligero's small memory footprint makes it a good choice for client-side proving, as well as the importance of programmable compliance in blockchain. The conversation explores the differences between ‘MPC in the head' and error-correcting code perspectives, and how well-established primitives influence the design of modern ZK systems. They also debate the challenge of adding ‘ZK' privacy back into systems without it, why proving EVM traces may be absurd, and what kinds of guarantees might exist around the results of vibe coding.
