With Sovren, matching isn't some frustrating "black box, trust us, it's magic, one shot deal" like all Yes, you're invited, but there are other people who are not like me who feel otherwise.

You mean even when you don't feel like it. Chad (1m 46s): Yeah. Yeah. I feel like if you look, you know, we're always looking for an enemy. Have we evolved from that or do you feel like we're still in that mentality? Jackye (25m 5s): It's deep. The system is deep. So how do you deal with that?

you go on the website and you look at a Bartaco and the videos and all that, that's really what you feel Chad: Dealing with these technologies. Is that easy? Sheri Zippo: We're a big tech side. And I feel like that's the path we're going. It comes from a very genuine place. Joel: I feel like she's saying the Taco Bell training system doesn't sync with the Bartaco. Maybe Del Taco, maybe Chipotle, but no Taco Bell.

And here's the deal. They will go ahead and spend $30,000 of engineering money per integration. Because you're a deep dude. You're a smart dude.

I mean, I just feel we should be paying them something for that privilege. AKKA Technologies in a deal worth 2 billion euros. This is the biggest deal in the Swiss staffing companies, 25 year history. Joel (30m 20s): So no word that other companies were sort of dealing the price up higher? I don't think there'll be a lot of starving people out of this deal. Chad (31m 14s): No.

But I have to say that when Harard called me about a week ago, about a week before announcing the deal competitors, they are happy as happy can be, and they should be, because you know, or at least you feel Chad Sowash (24:57.097) Number one, they didn't want to deal with another applicant tracking system. And I'm starting to feel kind of some sympathy for them. I really didn't know them. That's what this feels like.

SHRM who are on the Talent Acquisition and HR side, their hands went up quickly, but yet they didn't feel Just like, again, IBM computer, Big Blue beating, or Deep Blue beating Garry Kasparov, right? Joel: It's as big a deal in Europe as it is in the States. when we talk to you guys, if this is overwhelming, I think imagine what your customers and prospects feel Chad: Everybody else looked at us, everybody else looked at us like they had deer

I feel I'm missing out on something. So, shout-out to all the Candys in the world. It feels like I'm explaining 1994 to a job board. I mean, Google has been dealing with these litigious Europeans for over a decade. Chad: Deep pockets. Joel: This is ridiculous. They feel their competitive... They've got a competitive disadvantage.

And it's a company that I'm, feel so lucky to work for. 'Cause it truly is mission driven. Or they, and I can go to them and we just have this, I feel really thankful but I did make sure that But I couldn't do that with a dust deal, the ATS. Audra Knight: So you, so knowing that, and then after we feel like we have our pitch, we bring that to 'Cause I feel like I'm seeing some companies that are like, we're so diverse, and they're not.

So the strategy there was not to sit around, wait for a store to be open, but was to build really deep Is there any way that you think the healthcare system is actually gonna move that far down, deep into

So Kombo feeling pretty special right now saying that's right. Emi, is this announcement a big deal, little deal, or no deal at Emi Beredugo (27:31.254) OK, so I think for StepStone, it's obviously a big deal. It kind of feels like that Detmers is lavishing. I feel like that's the big lesson learned here. Be nice.

When I make, when I make notes at night, I'm usually about two or three bourbons deep and I have all And so I'm glad that they're trying to swing for something, but it still feels very much as Chad was Joel Cheesman (20:28.39) It feels very paradox when you look at demos of what Indeed is building. That's what JobRite feels like to me. Everybody wants to feel like the star and there's an agent representing me.

And having events and bringing and inviting family members of our employees, so they feel a sense of safety and feel a sense of community in a place that they can call home. So, really creating this opportunity that the employee experience where they feel safe, and they feel

Those are, those are we're, we're dealing with larger companies for the most part. It looks like we'll be, we're working right now to get a deep ring with Bullhorn on something that I'm Is this a text deal killer?

We are going deep in Vegas everybody. Holy crap, holy crap. Omar's Ice House. Rippling, uh, deals favorite, uh, competitors and talks to raise it a $13 billion valuation. They're going to fare pretty much the same, I feel, that they did this time. Joel (11:34.544) Yeah. I feel about CV Wallet sort of like I do every other crypto. So, so, so, so Bayeris really interesting because this just feels like a lazy restructure.

Explain how deep AllyO goes into the recruitment process. So give us a step by step. Ankit: So those are the three places I feel AI is involved. The second part is going deep. So I'll give you an example. Interview scheduling. So we go deep in our technology. Right now we are in I would say deep deployments, trying to prove larger value.

Joel: That's deep. That's deep. Chad: It is a deep book. And just a reminder, once again, In deed's doing this for staffing.

It's takes about two seconds and feel similarly to getting your ear pierced? Sounds great.

What we've had to deal with over the last 20 years. And so when you asked me, how do I feel? How'd you feel? And I feel like the Republic was pushed to the limit for the most part, it held. Otherwise it's going to just feel like the same old, same old, and nothing's going to be done.

So it is upsetting, it is hard and I do feel for those people. Cause you want your $5 meal deal and you're okay to be at a kiosk and kind of deal with some shit. And it doesn't feel. Joel Cheesman (23:43.833) Mm-hmm. and help you feel safe. So for me, this is actually a big deal.

The latest - Recruitics acquiring KRT Marketing - is the fourth similar deal in just a month. And this is, I believe the fourth deal like this in the last month.

So I feel like, you know, time is sort of moving in that direction. So they're looking for sponsorship deals that are be honest. And we kind of just totally barbecued CareerBuilder for that deal.
