Most HR software promises transformation. I write about what actually changes.

About David
“David spent four years working inside enterprise recruiting operations before he started writing about them. He has seen how hiring systems get chosen, how they get implemented, and what actually happens six months after go-live when the initial excitement has worn off.
That experience shapes how he writes. He is less interested in what a platform promises and more interested in how recruiting teams are actually using it day to day — the workflows, the workarounds, the parts that need a human to function properly.
At Joblet.ai he covers ATS platforms, hiring software, and recruitment infrastructure. His readers are usually people who are about to make a significant technology decision and want a clear picture of what they are getting into.
Credentials & Experience
From the Desk
Negotiate the offer letter, not the job board range. Push base, overtime, bonus, equity, and benefits before the start date locks.
ChatGPT prompts for job search work best when they shrink your list to a few roles worth a human-sounding message, not when they inflate your application count.
The real earnings difference between bookkeepers and accountants unfolds over years, not at the offer letter. Here's where the gap widens, which credentials pay off, and the industry paths that stretch it wider.
Dreading Sunday nights? It might not be your resilience. Spot when the job itself is the burnout source, what real support looks like, and how to decide whether to stay, quit, or push for change.
