Scale Your Suck: Sackett on AI and Talent



Tim Sackett is back, and he’s not here to sugarcoat your broken recruiting process. From running a family staffing biz (yes, his mom started it—nepotism FTW) to launching the HR Tech 100 Fund, Sackett’s got opinions, and Chad & Cheese are here to poke the bear.

Inside this episode:

  • Why most HR tech still runs on vaporware and broken promises

  • The Sackett philosophy: If you suck at recruiting, AI just helps you suck faster

  • “Scale Your Suck” – his accidental book title that SHRM will never publish

  • Why recruiters might have 18 months before AI eats their lunch (and their jobs)

  • How execs keep saying “do more strategic work” when nobody knows WTF that actually means

  • The coming extinction-level event for recruiters who think “tallest dwarf” = top talent

This isn’t a kumbaya “AI will save us all” chat. It’s Sackett unplugged—equal parts brutal honesty, dad jokes, and career counseling for recruiters about to be replaced by bots that actually give candidates feedback.

Grab a stiff drink. Season 3 is here, and it’s coming for your job description.
