I've spent 15 years building a career in this industry. So I had a front-row seat when the layoffs swept through — wave after wave of them, across the whole sector.
I watched it hit people I knew and respected. Sharp, experienced, dedicated professionals — suddenly staring down a hiring system that had quietly stopped treating them like humans.
It was happening in real time, everywhere. Résumés vanishing into black holes. AI screeners rejecting great candidates before a person ever looked. The same recycled advice that helped no one. Good people doing everything right and getting nothing back.
I couldn't unsee it. So I built what they needed and couldn't find — tools that work for the person, not against them. Because everyone deserves a fair shot.
