ChatGPT and other AI systems

Daily Use of ChatGPT and Other AI Tools

Hey everyone! Do any of you use ChatGPT, Gemini, Claude, or similar AI tools on a daily basis?

I certainly do! They’ve been a huge help for tackling mundane tasks, and creating custom GPTs has truly been a game changer for me.

I also subscribe to the MaxAi Chrome extension (alongside others like Merlin, Perplexity, and Monica) which I use on nearly every browser. The summarization feature is fantastic and comes in handy for processing long documents and articles.

Building my own GPTs has been a lot of fun, but I have to admit, the ones I’ve received from an industry trainer surpass mine by a wide margin.

What about you? What’s your go-to AI tool or ChatGPT use?

Best practices for hiring a business development person?

Best Practices for Hiring a Business Development Representative

I recently launched a small agency specializing in legal staffing, primarily focusing on contract placements. We invoice our clients monthly based on the hours billed by the talent we provide.

To grow my business, I’m considering bringing on a business development representative. Since I’m currently a solo operator working from home, I prefer to hire someone who can work remotely. I’m looking at a commission-based compensation model, with the possibility of offering a draw against commissions. Given that commissions would include residuals for as long as clients remain with us, there’s potential for significant earnings, particularly since many placements are long-term.

What best practices should I follow when hiring for this role in a one-person company?

What type of resources and support can I offer to ensure their success?

What kind of regular meetings or check-ins would be beneficial (considering their remote status) while ensuring they don’t feel overwhelmed?

Software developers and recruiters of Reddit, do you prefer sending/receiving the same resume for every job application or a tailored one?

Hey Reddit community of software developers and recruiters! When applying for jobs, do you find it better to send a generic resume for all applications, or do you prefer customizing your application for each position?

Developers: Do you believe that tailoring your resume and cover letter for each job improves your chances of getting noticed?

Recruiters: Do you find that personalized resumes catch your attention more than generic ones?

I’d love to hear your thoughts!

ATS mostly for job tracking / database ?

ATS primarily for job tracking and database purposes?

Hi everyone,

I run a small agency and am the sole person handling headhunting and research. I’m looking for an affordable ATS that offers a user-friendly interface with minimal clicks. I don’t utilize job boards, so my primary focus will be sourcing candidates from LinkedIn, either through data scraping or resume parsing.

Do you have any recommendations?

Part time

Seeking Part-Time Opportunities in Recruitment

I’m exploring the possibility of finding part-time work in recruitment but I’m unsure if I should start my own business. I have experience in recruitment and am currently working in another sales sector, but I lack knowledge on how to launch my own venture.

I would appreciate any advice or suggestions, particularly from those who might be willing to offer a commission-only position. I’m interested in helping fill low-paying roles, such as hospitality or warehouse jobs, in my local area. I have availability in the evenings and on weekends, and I occasionally have weekdays off, which would allow me to take on new clients. I’m well-connected within my community and confident in my ability to fill multiple positions.

Are there any companies that might consider this commission-only arrangement? Or should I consider going solo? Thank you for your insights!

Reverse recruiting?

Reverse Recruiting Inquiry
Hi everyone,

I’m currently in the UX/UI field and have a solid background in customer service. However, I’m honestly looking to shift away from UX, even though it pays well, and would prefer to pursue opportunities in customer success. I have 15 years of experience in customer service, but I know the pay isn’t as competitive unless I aim for a Customer Success Manager role.

So, I’m reaching out to ask:

Where can I find reverse recruiters who don’t charge fees? I’ve heard there are recruiters who specialize in specific fields, like UX design or customer success management, who help candidates find roles without a cost.

Any insights would be greatly appreciated as I navigate this new concept of reverse recruiting. Thank you!
