Everything people and workforce—recruiting, marketing, technology, talent management, and workforce economics—delivered with biting sarcasm and unapologetic snark. Industry misfits Chad Sowash and Joel Cheesman bring their no-holds-barred opinions to dissect news, trends, and the occasional dumpster fire. If you’re a hiring company, staffing firm, or vendor looking for insights (and a thick skin), these two won’t just tell you what’s happening—they’ll tell you why you’re probably doing it wrong. Buckle up, buttercup.
When I grow up ... Super Bowl ads in our industry are back with Indeed's decision to drop $10 million-plus on an ad in the Big Game. Oh yeah, we have a lot to say about that. What's more? Job.com pulls of a read headscratcher of an acquisition, more Buy or Sell, employers Kroger, Google and Activision have been naughty, and Holland Dombeck McCue is not to be messed with. Enjoy this Jobvite, JobAdx and Sovren powered episode.

Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion are on the lips of Talent Acquisition professionals all over the world. Many of those companies talk-the-talk when it comes to diversity, equity, and inclusion, but most do not walk-the-walk. Of course, vendors who service the recruiting industry have a heightened level of responsibility to be good corporate citizens. That's where popular ATS solution SmartRecruiters comes in. The company has committed to going above and beyond talking about diversity by actually becoming a force, beyond press releases and empty rhetoric and it all starts with an anti-racism stance to doing the work. Enter founder and CEO Jerome Ternynck on the podcast to dig into what's going on at the company, and learn what others in the space can do to model themselves after SmartRecruiters. Another The Chad & Cheese podcast challenging the status quo, powered by Nexxt. How are you going to target more diverse candidates for that requisition you just opened? That's a good question to ask Nexxt...

It's a new day in America. New president. New Vice President, who's also a minority woman! The new attitude in the New World, if you will. The sun rose and the weight has been lifted. Unfortunately for you, dear listener, this is the same craptastic podcast you've grown to love (or at least tolerate). Rejoice! This week, money continues to flow as Personio rides the dinosaur HR industry into "Unicorn" status and a game of Buy-or-Sell ensues. Alabama is ground zero for workers-of-the-world uniting against Amazon, ya'll, WFH is a financial coup for companies while workers get f'd, and lastly, Brits think they know best when it comes to mood tracking. Hey, this isn't the '70s! Take that mood ring nonsense and put it in your fish-and-chips! Anyway, enjoy this Sovren, JobAdx, & Jobvite powered production.
While the world of recruiting is running toward a future of automation and a process devoid of human beings, others are championing a hybrid approach: Part human, part machine. Sorta like the Six Million Dollar Man. That brings us to BrightHire, which aims to equip human beings with technological advancements that turn them into cyborgs of the employment game. Think Robocop without the cool cars. Anyway, does cofounder Teddy Chestnut have what it takes to survive the Firing Squad? You gotta listen to find out.

Hallelujah podcasts can't be impeached! Because Chad & Cheese are always dancing on the line of what's legal in at least 17 states, and this week is no exception. Let's start with a big investment in popular ATS Greenhouse, then play a little Buy or Sell with a handful of other startup investments that went down this week. After that, the boys look into HireVue's latest pivot out of facial tech and discuss why others may follow their lead. Then, let's bookend the whole episode by discussing chatbot zombies. Yeah, we're not right in the head, but we go great with a nice bottle of bourbon on a cold night. Enjoy another week, sponsored by Jobvite, Sovren, and JobAdx.
