Building Staplehire

[Navin @navin_dv]

A few weeks ago, a company took a shot on a hiring tool I built mostly in my boxers.

They threw three roles at it. Fourteen candidates interviewed. Over 100 minutes of interviews. ONE HIRE.

I think boxers might be a product superpower. 🩳

Staplehire is now your hiring agent.
It sources, researches, interviews, and manages people on your behalf, all day.

I've been working on this for a while and I'm happy to finally put it out there to help people find great talent for their teams.

I've always thought software should cater to intent.
Agents are finally making it malleable enough to adapt to how you hire.

Now anyone can hire!

No one will talk to an AI.

That’s what recruiters kept telling me when I started building Staplehire.
I wasn’t convinced. People might actually feel more comfortable chatting with an AI, there's no pressure and it's on their own time to put their best foot forward.

So I kept building. My only goal was to land one interview.

This week we crossed 300 minutes of real interviews
That's 300 minutes of candidates talking about their work.
300 minutes of teams getting better signal on their future team members.
Every candidate who applied got to show who they are and no one got skipped or lost in an inbox.

Turns out the gut was right.
People will talk to an AI, when it’s done right.

I thought I was being phished! 😂

Using /gstack is like therapy for builders.
It challenges, gives you nudges, and is genuinely endearing to use.
skills-UX might be a real thing.
Also one of the best value-first upsells I've seen.
btw @garrytan - is this anything? Or is this like a participation trophy? 🏆

Go read her post -

plus a lot more quotes in there that my mum wouldn’t be proud of.

“I rather be broke with a thousand side projects than have one full time job”

- me dropping bars that my mum would hate.

@KatrinayWatson covered how Staplehire came about. When I read her first newsletter on “Wake up excited” It immediately resonated with me.
Her writing captures the uncertainty of starting and the toil to keep going, beautifully.

She’s an amazing product Yoda helping with Staplehire and her writing resonates with people taking a leap to build something.

Hey! Built a tool that runs your screening and first round technical interviews async. Candidates get a link, interview via our voice agent on their own time, and get scored on the signals you set. You just wake up to a shortlist.
Happy to pilot this on your role for free, DM me or check out https://t.co/VcaMpPXgML.

[Navin @navin_dv]

We're looking for founders or hiring managers with open roles to pilot this. DM me and we'll run your next batch of candidates through it, you keep everything, and help me build this into exactly what you need.
