Your memory isn’t perfect. So Atlas remembers everything for you.
Atlas is an end-to-end recruitment platform built for the AI generation. It automates your admin so you can focus on the business tasks that matter.
How many conversations do you have every day? With clients. Candidates. Your team. Service providers.
Now how many of those conversations can you recall with 100% accuracy? How many hours a week do you spend making notes to try and retain as much as possible? And how much is still getting lost along the way?
Traditional CRM systems weren’t built for the type of recruitment business you’re running right now.
They were built to rely on the structured, tagged, categorised, and formal data you could feed it. Manual processes that needed you to input specific information based on specific questions and answers.
But what about all the other conversations you’re having every single day?
Atlas isn’t an ATS or a CRM. It’s an Intelligent Business Platform that helps you perform 10X better than you could on your own.
How?
By removing all your low-value tasks, acting as your perfect memory, and providing highly relevant recommendations to impact your performance.

AI is set to transform recruitment, and this episode will blow your mind!
On this week's episode, I am joined by Jordan Shlosberg, founder of Atlas, to discuss how his AI-powered CRM is set to transform the recruitment industry!
Now, Jordan knows a thing or two about building successful businesses. He took his previous company, ProSapient, to a massive $40 million in revenue before exiting.
He launched Atlas with one goal: to eliminate the tedious admin work recruiters face. Now, with over 1,000 users on their waiting list, Atlas acts as a virtual assistant, handling all the admin and delivering insights at the push of a button.
In this episode, we'll be talking about:
●Jordan's incredible journey to success.
●How he scaled ProSapient to $40 million and successfully exited the business.
●What he learned along the way, and how those lessons inspired him to create Atlas.
●We'll also dive deep into how Atlas is using AI to revolutionise recruitment.
●You'll discover how this powerful CRM can help you streamline your workflow, make better placements, and ultimately, boost your revenue.
I love what Jordan's doing with Atlas. It's like having a virtual assistant who takes care of all those tedious admin tasks that we recruiters have to deal with day in and day out.
This is why we have partnered together this year, and Atlas is now one of two headline sponsors for the show!
Tune in to learn how AI is reshaping recruitment, and see if Atlas is the game-changer your agency needs! Don’t miss this conversation with one of the industry's top innovators!

Today, I'm excited to look at another of Access Group's products.
This time, it's an automation platform called ELAY that was recently acquired by the Access Group based on its initial success in integrating well with Vincere and its customers.
In this episode, I interviewed Mehdi Este, the founder and automation general manager, and Nick Beecroft, the head of new business for Access Recruitment.
I've known Nick for a long time, but this is my first time meeting Mehdi. They are a really good duo.
Mehdi tells us the back story of ELAY and explains how it automates processes within recruitment workflows, such as CRM automation, cold outreach emails, and chatbots.
Nick talks more from a client and industry perspective as to why you would want to put this into your operating system. Why automation, both in your CRM and on LinkedIn, will benefit a recruitment business of all sizes and scales
AI and automation are huge industry buzzwords right now.. I've talked about this frequently, and it can be overwhelming and scary.
In this conversation, we aim to break it down into logical steps in a way that Recruitment leaders can understand
Key Takeaways
If you wish to learn more about AI and automation, then this episode is for you. Education and understanding are key to navigating the world of automation and AI in recruitment, and it's important to start with small steps and build from there.

On this week's show, I've decided to completely pause the schedule and remember the amazing Ryan McCabe, who sadly lost his life this week.
I really don't have words to describe how amazing Ryan was.
I personally didn't know him that well, but we had great interactions.
We spoke semi-regularly about our businesses, and I always felt that we were similar and that we saw the world the same way.
He was among the first to sponsor the RAG podcast and take a chance on me.
He was a guest on the show twice in 2020
I felt it was appropriate to remember Ryan by replaying the episode we recorded in May 2020.
Just over four years ago, a 30-year-old Ryan tells us his unique story.
- His personal story from Mechanical Engineering to recruiter and technology leader
- How his vision for Odro took the platform into a new direction.
- How the business grew across the global recruitment industry
- His plans for Odro after 2020
- How he believed in putting 100% into everything he did
I hope this is received well and that you enjoy listening to Ryan and remembering how amazing he was.
I am also aware that this may be a difficult listen for some people.
This is my little way of sending love to his wife, Roisin and his kids, to his friends and those who worked closely with him at Odro over the years.
Please join us and let's remember the amazing Ryan McCabe.

On this week's show, I'm super excited to be joined by Helen McGuire. Helen is the exited founder of Diversely.io, a technology business acquired by Access Group in 2023.
Entering the pandemic in 2020, Helen ran a recruitment business dedicated to helping return-to-work mothers find flexible jobs. Helen understood this cause well, as she’d previously been in this exact position herself.
But she soon realised that her recruitment agency's business model limited the number of people she could actually help. There was so much more to be done!
So, to solve the problem on a broader scale, she decided to pivot her recruitment company and become a technology business instead.
She partnered with a co-founder from a tech background who was as passionate about the project as she was.
Three years later, she successfully grew and exited the company.
In this episode, we discuss the problems women face when returning to work and Helen’s journey as a female founder.
Whether you’re a female founder yourself or a male founder who wants to understand the female perspective and how to balance your workforce, you’re going to enjoy this episode

I'm excited to be joined by Callum Beaumont, the founder of Cordell Beaumont, a specialist recruitment firm headquartered in the UK with an international client base in the shipping and maritime sector.
In this episode, we talk about Callum's five-year journey as a recruitment business owner and ultimately focus on the five biggest mistakes he's made in that time.
Callum reached out to me after listening to many of the shows I've done recently and said that he wanted listeners to hear his honest start-up story.
To balance out the classic growth story, today we take a deeper look at his lows and mistakes, the things he's done wrong, and the actions he's taken to put them right.
Key highlights
So, if you're already a founder or you're thinking of launching a business in the future, I believe that you'll really benefit from listening to this.

Safe to say, last year was tricky for the recruitment sector globally. Many have had to operate through uncertain times, making tough calls and streamlining where possible.
However, accessing lower-cost resources internationally has proven to be the 2023 cheat code for business performance. But anyone who has tried it knows it’s not easy to get right. That’s where Untapped comes in.
Untapped is one of the hottest companies in the market right now, helping agencies in the UK, US, Middle East and Australia transition to the new world, leverage elite remote individuals and even build whole offshore sourcing and recruiting teams.
They source from the most exciting talent pools on the planet for recruitment staff and embed elite talent into your company to improve diversity, productivity and the cost of your teams. Your UK team will also love the help with some of the repetitive, time-consuming work that lands on their desk, improving their job satisfaction.
They put around 3000 candidates per month through an intense 4-stage interview and online testing process to find the top 1% and secure these people roles in UK agencies doing research, marketing, finance, sourcing, end-to-end recruiting, coordination and account management.
All candidates are benchmarked against UK competency frameworks and are tested for the highest level of communication and language skills.
It’s a simple process: You pay a deposit to kick off the search, they provide a candidates shortlist in 14 days. You can also put people through your own process and then hire perm or on a freelance basis, depending on your needs. They are totally transparent with salaries. Typically, your global talent will earn 30% more than their local benchmark, giving you high levels of motivation and work ethic, but you’ll still pay 70% less than a UK equivalent support. It’s a no-brainer to complement existing teams to handle surplus demand or to ease cost pressures.
If you’re not using this time to rip up your business model and rebuild it with global resources, you are going to fall behind those that do. Due to demand and capacity restraints, they are operating a waiting list at the moment, so be quick to get in touch: www.tryuntapped.com
