AI platform that applies to roles on LinkedIn, Indeed, and ZipRecruiter | ep117

Today’s guest on the Inside Job Boards and Recruitment Marketplaces Podcast is John Marino, the cofounder and CEO of Mashalot AI, a very new entrant into our space with a very different business model.

John’s vision for the new venture was born out of the frustration that he and his 19-year-old son experienced when applying to jobs on some of the largest job boards. The idea was to use AI to automate the search and application process and, instead of charging employers to advertise their job openings, candidates would pay. As a result, the site targets candidates with more money than time.

So far, postings come primarily from Indeed, LinkedIn, and ZipRecruiter. John tells cohosts Peter M. Zollman of the AIM Group and Steven Rothberg of College Recruiter job search site that they’re not scraping postings but, instead, using a third-party who has authorization from the job boards to feed their job postings to Mashalot AI. Who that third-party might be is unknown to your cohosts at this time, but let us know in the comments below if you have any guesses.
