Assuming the bet didn’t scare you… probably just barking up the wrong tree.
Any idea who owns sourcing or recruiter ops on your team?
Happy to send them a few candidates to test us out.
... and yep $50/day is still on the table. Cheers :)

Wasn’t kidding about the bet, Bob.
Recruiters usually cost $3,200/month and spend half their day sourcing.
Serra handles sourcing plus outreach for way less. Books more meetings too.
Waymo (Google), Replit, and EquipmentShare already use us.
Cool if I send over a list for one of your roles?
P.S. Not replacing recruiters haha just the stuff they don't like

Just confident. Fair? P.S. We don’t replace LI Recruiter, we replace
sourcing.
