AI-first. what does this mean? I buy a tool and give what do in a single day and rest?

AI and paradox of trust by Yuval Noah Harari

AI is a tool - Linus torvalds

For decades, we have been careful on what message we conveyed to our users. Hero section, email campaign, vision and mission statements.

Now startups says "AI-first tool" in a free flow way. Most of times, it is inaccurately applied for what outcomes it delivers.

Maybe we are entering into "AI trial and error era". waiting to see what works.

I have started with idea and assumed customers will follow.

few signups, 0 revenue growth.

We kept learning, improving self and product. Talked to lot of customers and shaped our product for one use case. Now we are getting some traction.

Every decision we took looks 6 months ago stupid now. but it is not completely irrelevant. It shaped ourselves what we are, how we make decisions, how we execute today.

Things we do today, might look stupid in future. but we will be definitely be making better outcomes out of it.

No playbook exists. Keep moving, do better mistakes.

What do "Growth" means for you guys?

At the end of the day, we want a human to join our startup team.

In next 5 years, If we are making human hiring decision, what is the one trait we should definitely look for?

I dont know how people are coming up with such juicy and vanity metrics but mostly are noise.

• How you think • How you solve problems • How you execute ideas • The results you’ve achieved

These are the real hiring signals that actually matter, something we consistently hear from many startup founders and recruiters.

That’s why more people are showcasing their work through portfolios. And that’s what recruiters actually look for.

Hard to productize these with or without AI but still ATS drama exists

What signals do you look for when hiring? Do you still see legacy ATS score drama relevant?

For decades resume builders are false marketing that perfectly formatted resumes increases hiring conversions.

Why can’t we connect both personal portfolios , hiring via ATS?

We are building HuntYourTribe in this journey.

In our recent user interviews, One Startup founder mentioned , “He had 1500 applicants from Linkedin Job posting. He was struck and screened only 200 resumes. He was guilty of not screening 80% and admits that he overlooked many qualified ones but he doesn’t have choice today as ATS is bulky, costly and most functionalities I don’t need”

We are curious to hear all you feedbacks on this attempt
