Job hunting is broken. We're fixing it.
Hi, I'm Michael Nash, a member of the team at TalentAid.
Here's what's actually happening in hiring right now:
A software engineer spends 3 hours tailoring their resume, applies to 47 jobs, gets zero interviews. Half of those jobs are ghost listings (positions already filled or that never existed). Meanwhile, at a fintech startup, a harried HR generalist with zero technical background is buried under 800 applications. They're "screening" for backend engineers but couldn't tell you the difference between Python and JavaScript. They give up. They call a recruiter. They pay 25% commission. Everyone loses.
The problem isn't the job boards. It's that we're still matching humans to jobs like it's 2005. Keywords and buzzwords, generic filters, pure luck. We're building an AI-powered matching engine that actually understands what you want; and what companies need.
Here's how it works:
Our AI doesn't just scan for keywords. It analyses your actual skills, career trajectory, work style preferences, and growth goals. On the company side, it maps hiring needs beyond the job description - culture fit, team dynamics, learning opportunities, compensation reality. It also filters out ghost jobs and dead listings so you don't have to waste time applying.
And here's the thing: our AI actually understands technical skills. It's not a non-technical recruiter guessing. It evaluates your backend chops, your design patterns, your problem-solving approach; the stuff that actually matters.
The results:
Job seekers spend less time applying and more time interviewing, with roles that actually fit. No more wasting hours on dead ends. Companies hire 3x faster and get candidates who stick around. Recruiters' days are numbered (you're welcome).
The hiring game is rigged. We all know that AI doesn't fix everything. But it does fix this.
If you're interested in the product, please leave a message or send me a DM, and I'll notify you when we launch :)
