Crazy pitch: Engineers on the job hunt: pivot, become recruiter make $200k-$300k

2•Shooogur•4mo ago
I run a Venture Fund backed by talent leaders. Over the last 9 months working with founders at the bleeding edge and the VC that back them it's become increasingly clear that the standard recruiter isn't cutting it.

They want people that understand the technology, that can assess someones technical chops on the fly, that can use N8N to spin up an agent, that can create talent ecosystems, that have an existing rolodex of talented engineers in their back pocket. Standard comp package for this person: $200k-$300k TC.

So here's the pitch: my fund is going to run 1 beta cohort/accelerator for software engineers who want to learn how to recruit and break into talent.

In this 90 day cohort you'll learn from the best to ever do it, 250 talent leaders that have scaled/exited pretty much every unicorn in the last two decades. You will learn everything from sourcing, to tooling, stakeholder management, and compensation. We'll not only teach you how to recruit we'll also help you find your next gig.

In the decade+ I've been in this career, want to know how many engineers I've met who run talent functions? Just one, and it's the guy that runs all of OpenAI's recruiting. Want to be a unicorn? Want to stand out in the ocean of job seekers? Be something new.
