Recruitment platform rethink for tech roles
Summary
Recruiters can't filter passive candidates from outdated databases. Candidates face delays, low transparency, and no feedback loop after rejection.
01How I worked through it
- 01Researched recruiter and candidate pain points across sourcing, screening, assessment, and the post-application journey.
- 02Designed AI-powered sourcing + screening, real-time candidate updates, and automated upskilling recommendations on rejection.
- 03Specced the platform: interview tool, employer-of-record, ATS, recruitment automation.
- 04Iterated on the curation flow with recruiter feedback before pinning down the supply-side wedge.
02Notes
Most recruitment platforms optimise for the recruiter and forget the candidate is the supply. Build for the side that's harder to retain.
