AI is the most disruptive technology we've seen in our careers, but most industry conversations stay at the surface level of use cases and future predictions. This special bonus episode goes deeper. These four interviews, taken from a behind-the-scenes film I recently made, explore how AI recruiting products actually get built. We're talking to the people who created SmartRecruiters' AI-first platform Winston to uncover the lessons TA professionals need for their own AI transformation. Featuring: Shefali Netke, VP of Design, on how design decisions shape AI adoption in enterprise recruiting Thibaut Allard, Global Data Privacy & AI Lead, on navigating AI compliance where global regulations and rapid innovation collide Dave Novak, Global Director of Managed Services, on what it actually takes to turn AI ambition into operational reality Nicole Hammond, VP, Center of Excellence, on building true AI readiness from early mindset shifts to sustained capability If you want to understand the architecture, the legal landscape, and the human side of making AI work in recruiting, this is the episode.
Send us a textAI can sift resumes, flag cheaters, and surface real talent—but only if you pair it with clear roles, smart assessments, and disciplined communication. That's the system Ben Johnson, CEO of Particle 41, walks us through as we compare notes on hiring at scale, building global engineering teams, and turning remote work from transactional to tight-knit. We get specific on how an AI resume scorer and assessment workflow cut through 500+ applicants a week, why an 85% relevance threshold saves recruiter time, and how anti-cheating tools keep the signal clean across technical and non-technical roles.From there, we zoom out to the leadership moves that unlock elite performance. Accountability charts replace names with roles and outcomes, giving us a cleaner way to design teams, define expectations, and reduce constant reorgs. Ben's “practice squads” create small, cross-client groups that meet monthly, rotate moderators, and blend personal and professional growth—so engineers become confident consultants, not just coders. Layer on lightweight rituals like daily focus updates and weekly client status reports, and you get fewer meetings, clearer priorities, and faster delivery across time zones.We also unpack the product playbook: start with design to force hard decisions, define the real MVP, and make smart build, buy, or partner calls where customers feel it most. Before chasing “more AI,” get your SOPs in order, let teams prototype improvements with ChatGPT, and target one workflow at a time—aim small, miss small—to avoid overspending and measure impact. We close with a pragmatic security reminder: never reuse passwords, use a password manager, and assume AI is accelerating both offense and defense. Subscribe, share this with a builder who needs it, and tell us the one workflow you'll automate first.Support the show

We're just days away from a brand new year, and there's one leadership skill that will define your momentum in 2026: turning vision into structure. In this episode of Recruiting Conversations, I walk you through how to go beyond inspiring language and build a vision your team and your recruits can actually believe in. If you've ever felt like your vision gets lost or fades after January, this will show you how to make it stick; with structure, ownership, and real action steps. Episode Breakdown [00:00] Welcome & Setup – It's almost New Year's Eve, which means you're probably reflecting on what you built and casting vision for what's next [01:00] Why Most Vision Fades – Leaders share big ideas in December, but they don't connect it to structure, behavior, or execution [02:00] Step 1: Define the Destination – What would be true by the end of 2026 if your vision came to life? Culture, structure, experience, leadership [02:45] Step 2: Break It Into Pillars – Group your goals into clear themes: leadership development, recruiting, systems, team structure, brand, etc. [03:00] Step 3: Start Small and Assign Ownership – What's one thing you can move forward in January? Assign a name and a timeline [03:45] Step 4: Communicate Often – The biggest mistake is thinking people will remember your vision after hearing it once. Repetition builds belief [04:30] Step 5: Connect Systems to Your Story – Don't just post wins or numbers. Let your systems and your social content reflect where you're going [05:00] Final Challenge – Do this before midnight on New Year's Eve: Write down your 2026 vision Name 3 pillars that support it Identify 1 action step for the first week of January [05:30] The Real Goal – Your vision doesn't need to be perfect. It needs to be anchored in what matters to you and repeated with consistency [06:00] Wrap-Up – When your team knows where you're going and how you're getting there, recruiting becomes magnetic. Happy New Year Key Takeaways Vision Without Structure Fades – Most leaders talk about the future but don't build a roadmap to get there Start With the End in Mind – Get crystal clear on what success actually looks like 12 months from now Use Pillars to Organize the Chaos – Categorizing your goals helps you make progress in focused areas Assign Ownership and Set Timelines – Even the smallest next step brings your vision to life Repetition Builds Belief – Say your vision often enough that your team starts to echo it back to you This isn't about perfection. It's about clarity, consistency, and commitment. When your vision becomes a roadmap, people don't just hear it. They believe it. And when they believe it, they follow you into 2026 with trust.
SHOW NOTES:In this episode, Matt Zaun sits down with Ryan Hogan, Founder & CEO of Talent Harbor, to unpack what actually works in recruiting top sales talent today. They dig into why “keep it simple” beats complex hiring funnels, how to design a value ladder that moves buyers forward, and where AI helps (and hurts) in the hiring process. Ryan also shares the gritty lessons that shaped him (from bankruptcies to billion-dollar beliefs) and the leadership habits he brought home from the Navy.In this episode, they cover:✅ Value ladder & micro-commitments — the psychology of getting small “yeses,” including Ryan's Hunt A Killer application flow that primed buyers before any purchase.✅ Authentic scarcity — how to use real capacity limits (e.g., only onboarding 3–4 clients/week) to increase conversion without breaking trust.✅ AI in recruiting (the truth) — great for assessments and repurposing insights; poor at relationship-building with A-players who won't talk to a bot first.✅ Hiring veterans — look for resilience + self-awareness; ask how they learned, trained, failed, and translated that into civilian impact....and much more!BIOS:Ryan Hogan is the Founder & CEO of Talent Harbor, specializing in flat-rate, expert sales recruiting. A U.S. Navy veteran (now Reserve), Ryan previously co-founded Hunt A Killer, the immersive mystery brand, and has led multiple ventures spanning consumer products and B2B services.

Despite his experience as a Hospital Corpsman, Valentin faced significant difficulty finding his footing, eventually applying to 46 jobs with little success before connecting with Spectrum's Military Recruiting Program. Elly explains how her team, comprised of veterans and military spouses, focuses on proactively coaching candidates to translate their specialized military skills into civilian career paths.

Most candidates treat recruiter calls like a box-checking step. But the candidates who consistently land offers treat recruiters like strategic partners - and use them to get real leverage throughout the process.In this episode of Supra Insider, Marc Baselga and Ben Erez sit down with our repeat guest, Anneli Scopazzi (Boulevard Talent; former recruiting leader across Palantir, Figma, and Notion) to break down what recruiters are actually incentivized by, what they're looking for in the recruiter screen, and how candidates can use recruiters to prepare more intelligently and avoid preventable missteps.They cover the difference between internal recruiters and agency recruiters, what gets candidates filtered out early, how to ask for “prep” without sounding insecure, what to do when a company refuses to share details, and how to handle compensation conversations without accidentally anchoring yourself into a worse outcome. They also discuss when to save sensitive questions for the offer stage, and how recruiters influence the process behind the scenes (feedback, debriefs, and closing).If you're interviewing in today's competitive market, especially for product roles, this episode gives you a tactical playbook for turning recruiters into an advantage instead of an afterthought.

Welcome back to Hardcore Penn State Football, your no-holds-barred hub for expert breakdowns, behind-the-scenes scoops, and unapologetic opinions on the Nittany Lions! In this timely episode – dropping just after Christmas on December 26, 2025 – hosts Cory Lestochi and Shawn Kane tackle the latest twists in Happy Valley as the Matt Campbell era takes shape. With the Pinstripe Bowl looming, we're covering the stinging loss of DL coach Deion Barnes to South Carolina, the surging 2026 recruiting class hitting nine commits, and how PSU is gearing up for a showdown with Clemson. From staff shakeups to future stars and bowl game strategies, this episode delivers the intel you need to stay ahead of the curve in Big Ten football. Ouch – another hit to the coaching staff! We start with the breaking news that defensive line coach Deion Barnes, a PSU alum and rising star in coaching circles, is bolting for South Carolina to join Shane Beamer's staff as their new DL coach and co-defensive coordinator. Barnes, who played a key role in developing beasts like Chop Robinson and Adisa Isaac, leaves a void after just a few seasons in Happy Valley. Recruiting is heating up under Campbell! After a rocky start with decommits following the coaching change, PSU has clawed back to nine verbal commitments in the 2026 class. Can Penn State get to 15 commits? Penn State takes on Clemson, Saturday, December 27th in Yankee Stadium. A matchup everyone at the beginning of the season thought could be for a National Championship, is now set for a meaningless bowl game. How will the team prepare? Coach Terry Smith leads the team one more time as interim head coach. If you're amped for the bowl and the Campbell rebuild, LIKE, SUBSCRIBE, and ring the bell for instant updates!

Happy holidays—and I hope you enjoyed the first round of the College Football Playoff.With Christmas approaching and another college football season sliding toward its next chapter, Jim Mora is beginning one of his own.The new head coach at Colorado State joined the Y-Option podcast, fueled by our founding sponsor, 76® - keeping you on the GO GO GO so you never miss a beat, to share the why behind his decision to lead CSU in the reborn Pac-12.What struck me most in our conversation wasn't the résumé—NFL head coach, UCLA head coach, program rebuilder at Connecticut, mentor to generations—not even our long friendship.It was the choice.The decision to take on something unfinished. To step into uncertainty. To begin again—not because he had to, but because he wanted to.Y-Option: College Football with Yogi Roth is a reader-supported publication. To receive new posts and support my work, consider becoming a free or paid subscriber.Jim Mora has lived inside football his entire life. Not as a job, but as an inheritance. A family calling that shaped him as a coach, a son, a father, a husband, and a leader. From the Pac-8 days of his father's career, to playing in the Pac-10, to coaching in the Pac-12, his journey mirrors the evolution of the sport itself.Which is why this moment matters.Colorado State isn't a nostalgia play.It's a belief play.Jim is stepping into a re-imagined Pac-12. Into a conference finding its footing again. Into a program searching for identity and traction in a version of college football none of us could have fully imagined five years ago.NIL.The portal.Revenue sharing.An expanded College Football Playoff.Realignment.For some, that landscape feels overwhelming.For Jim Mora, it feels familiar.He sees today's college football ecosystem as closer to the NFL than ever before. The portal functions like free agency. Recruiting resembles a draft. Financial realities echo a salary cap. The guardrails may differ, but the principles remain the same: roster construction, culture, alignment, and adaptability.That word—adaptability—came up again and again.You have to have a plan.You have to believe in fundamentals.You have to hold standards.And you also have to be willing to adjust—often daily—without losing your core.Coach Mora learned that from some of the greatest to ever do it: Hall of Fame coaches and executives who shaped how he views leadership, decision-making, and sustained excellence.But none of it works without people.Coach Mora has always been clear about that.Building programs. Scaling mountains. Taking on challenges without guarantees. College football continues to pull him in because of the impact—the opportunity to shape young people during some of the most formative years of their lives. To teach lessons not only through success, but through failure. To help players grow into men, not commodities.That perspective matters now more than ever.The mountain ahead is clear.A new program.A re-imagined conference.A legitimate—though demanding—path toward competing on the sport's biggest stages.And a daily commitment to do the work required to turn ambition into reality.Jim Mora isn't chasing legacy.He isn't chasing comfort.He's chasing alignment with the work.And maybe that's the clearest lesson of all.After all this time, he finally feels like he knows what he's doing—even as he embraces the truth that the climb never ends.I think you'll enjoy this conversation as we all head into the holiday season, hopefully with a little time off, a good hike, or a fun surf.On behalf of all of us at Y-Option, thank you for your love, support, and community.Much love and stay steady,YogiY-Option: College Football with Yogi Roth is a reader-supported publication.

In this solo episode, I explore a question that's been on my mind for a long time: what actually separates an adequate leader from a good one, and a good one from a great one?I use football as an analogy, not to glorify sports leadership clichés, but to illustrate a distinction that shows up everywhere. In business. In manufacturing. In engineering. In organizations that win once, versus those that win consistently.An adequate leader operates at the tactical level. They make good decisions in the moment. They motivate. They call decent plays. They can win games with the right inputs.A good leader operates at the strategic level. They game plan. They understand matchups. They align tactics to strengths and weaknesses. They win more often.But the leaders who succeed year after year are doing something fundamentally different. They are designing systems.Using the Michigan Wolverines' path to the 2023 national championship as a concrete example, I break down how Jim Harbaugh and his staff stopped optimizing plays and started optimizing the entire organization around a clear objective. Recruiting. Strength training. Scheme. Coaching roles. Player profiles. Even quarterback selection. Everything was designed to work together toward a specific outcome.This episode is about leadership as organizational design. About why “great people” alone are not enough. About why the right person in the wrong system still fails. And about the leader's real job: creating a structure where people can exercise judgment, take ownership, and succeed without constant direction.This is a working hypothesis, not a manifesto. But it's one I believe matters deeply for anyone responsible for building teams, systems, and results that last.Building Better with Brandon Bartneck explores what it means to build—better companies, better systems, and better lives. Through conversations and reflections, Brandon digs into the principles that drive growth, purpose, and meaningful work.Music credit: Slow Burn – Kevin MacLeod
Ohio State landed a commitment from 2027 LB Quinton Cypher on Friday, giving James Laurinaitis a top-of-the-board addition to his next recruiting class. And that's just the start of the news on this episode of the Buckeyes TomOrrow Morning podcast, including updates on the Buckeyes' next opponent, and a bonus episode of the Skull Session Recruiting Podcast. Despite putting up video game numbers at a Texas High School powerhouse, Brock Boyd's high school production didn't line up with his ranking, and that has the Southlake Carroll star coming to Columbus with a chip on his shoulder. Marc and Juck discuss Boyd's profile entering college on this special bonus episode of the Skull Session Recruiting Podcast.
