Julian shares his unique journey from growth marketing in SaaS to building a recruitment tech company without any prior recruitment experience. He explains how his background in scaling processes and leveraging automation for efficiency gave him a distinct advantage when entering the recruitment space. This led him to develop Talin.ai, a platform that helps recruiters automate manual workflows like data enrichment, email sequencing, and ATS updates, all while keeping the human element at the core of the recruiting process. The conversation delves into how Talin.ai works by integrating multi-channel campaigns across email, SMS, and in-mail, with AI-powered personalization to improve response rates.

Julian’s story is one of innovation, resilience, and the ability to blend tech-driven solutions with the recruiter’s traditional role of connecting people, ultimately transforming how recruitment agencies operate.   Julian’s Bio After 7 years working with early and mid stage SaaS startups as a growth marketer, He began his own SaaS venture: Talin. While building out growth teams for startups, He dove head first into learning the recruitment process. What he found were broken, fragmented workflows that resulted in wasted resources and frustrated recruiters. The root cause of these problems faced by recruitment teams were solvable. The tech existed - it just hadn't been packaged and designed to work for recruiters. Talent professionals faced bad workflow problems that forced manual tasks sales and marketing teams had streamlined a long time ago. So he built Talin - an automation platform designed to streamline the sourcing, data enrichment, and outreach process so that talent teams can spend less time on spreadsheets, and more time on people.   You can find Julian on LinkedIn or check out  https://www.talin.ai/ Get the best and most current digital recruiting insights, tips, and strategies every Sunday—straight to your inbox, for free: https://www.digitalrecruiter.io/drnewsletter For more information about Digital Recruiter, click HERE ---＞ https://linktr.ee/thedigitalrecruiter   Learn more about your ad choices.
