#41- From Recruiter to Tech Founder: Bryan Wilson's Mission to Modernize the Staffing Workflow

09 Aug 2024

Description

Episode Summary In this episode, Clark chats with Bryan Wilson, a tech entrepreneur with deep roots in the recruiting industry. Bryan's journey is pretty fascinating - he started washing windows after high school before stumbling into recruiting through his brother-in-law.  Bryan shares some great stories from the early days of his recruiting career in the late 90s, including the wild west days of the dot-com boom. He and Clark dig into the ups and downs of running a recruiting agency, including Bryan's experiences trying to find the right niche after the bubble burst. The conversation then shifts to Bryan's transition into the software side of recruiting. He talks about his time at JobAdder and how that led him to found Parsley, a Chrome extension that bridges the gap between LinkedIn and applicant tracking systems. Bryan breaks down how Parsley works and why it's a game-changer for recruiters at only $15 a month. They also discuss StaffUpApp, another company Bryan's involved with that provides mobile staffing solutions for smaller agencies to compete with the big players. Throughout the chat, Bryan offers insights on entrepreneurship, the challenges of building software for recruiters, and how technology is changing the staffing industry. What's cool about Bryan is he's been on both sides - as a recruiter and now building tech for recruiters. He brings that hands-on experience to his products, focusing on solving real problems he experienced firsthand. It's a great listen for anyone interested in the intersection of recruiting and technology, or for recruiters looking to up their game with some new tools.
