Something fundamental has shifted in how people find work. Job boards that dominated for decades are losing their effectiveness. Candidates are overwhelmed and skeptical. Employers are drowning in applications that are all the same. The old playbook simply isn't working anymore.

Meanwhile, the TikTokification of communication and the rise of the creator economy are reshaping the marketing landscape. People trust other people more than corporate messaging and want to hear authentic voices, not polished PR. So could this approach work for hiring?

My guests this week are Tracey Parsons, CEO of Flockity, and J.T. O'Donnell, founder of Work It Daily. In our conversation, they explain how the influencer model not only has the potential to transform talent attraction but could also fundamentally change the way recruiting works.

In the interview, we discuss:

  • What's gone wrong with job boards and the job search
  • The loss of trust
  • The reality of interest-based algorithms
  • The growth of the knowledge creator economy
  • Using influencers to promote jobs
  • How job seekers and employers feel about influencer marketing
  • Why the recruiting process needs radical updating
  • Inserting the right friction points in a seamless experience
  • What does the future look like?
