From Episode 9: Hiring Tools, Built from Scratch, starting at 10:56.
Sam Nadler [10:55]: The I would say, there's a few tools we've already built. One we've covered called RyzScore that immediately scores the resumes of the candidates. That that is, something that we'd wanna build in here. There's probably some AI communication features we could build in, writing custom emails. There's or there's probably this job matching feature. We screen a lot of candidates. And, just based on the process, A lot Of candidates don't end up with their next opportunity, but that doesn't mean they couldn't be great fits for a future opportunity. So, like, having quick access and pulling those candidates up using AI to do that could accelerate our funnel for certain roles. Like I said, the iteration cycles are super fast, and I think, doing a Granola call, having them give me all their feedback, then, throwing it into a new PRD and having Claude Code run with it is, would literally be done in minutes.
Jordan Metzner [11:54]: Yeah. It's awesome. Yeah. I mean, and then you can do it again and do it again.
Sam Nadler [11:58]: And it. Exactly. And then once I get it, 100% aligned with the recruiting team and have all those features, then move to building the back end.
Jordan Metzner [12:09]: Yeah. Yeah. I wouldn't design any back end until kind of, like, you have the, main core feature set built out. But, yeah, great job, Sam. I mean, like, just seeing your evolution on the podcast from, building out, like, things in Bolt to now, using multiple agents inside of Cursor.
