Monster.com 🧏🏼‍♂️ let's hear from Job experts about the path to career answers and insighT

Posted By: Hija Chang on May 15, 2026


Jeff Taylor founded Monster.com in 1994 and revolutionized how the world finds jobs. Now at 63, he's back to destroy what he created.

In this episode of Talent Take Five, Jeff shares why the recruiting infrastructure is collapsing under AI pressure, with companies receiving 500 applications in 3 hours instead of 200 over 3 weeks. One Boston CTO told him: "I have 8,000 resumes. I'm sure there are qualified people in there. I just don't know how to get to them."

Jeff's solution? Kill the resume entirely and go radically human. His advice might shock you: "Send a pizza with your resume in the bottom. That's what we did in 1992."
