Are you ready to become an AI-powered "super recruiter" and future-proof your success as the recruiting landscape transforms before your eyes?

In this episode of The Elite Recruiter Podcast, host Benjamin Mena sits down with Steven Lu, CEO and co-founder of pin.com, for a candid, energetic conversation about the real impact of AI in recruiting—and what it genuinely means for recruiters right now. As AI tools proliferate and many recruiters worry about automation, this episode zeros in on how you can leverage intelligent technology not as a threat, but as a force multiplier to achieve more placements, build better relationships, and dramatically grow your billing potential.

Are you tired of tedious sourcing, clunky tech stacks, and endless manual outreach? Are you wondering how to rise above the flood of generic, AI-generated candidate spam? Steven shares an insider’s perspective—honed from years at companies like Interseller and Greenhouse—on how to select tools that genuinely solve recruiters’ problems, not just Silicon Valley’s wishlist. He debunks the hype, tackles the “doomsday” fears around AI, and explains why the most successful recruiters of tomorrow aren’t those who work harder, but smarter, by combining top-notch relationship-building with supercharged technology.

Here’s what you’ll take away from this episode:

• Actionable insight into the actual AI automations—like advanced resume parsing, omnichannel messaging, and precise candidate mapping—that free you from busywork and let you double down on high-value conversations.
• A roadmap to make yourself indispensable, by becoming a trusted industry expert and harnessing AI-driven market intelligence that goes way beyond Boolean search.
• Realistic advice for both early-career recruiters and seasoned pros on adopting the right AI tools, future-proofing your role, and even scaling solo billing to eye-popping new heights.
