I am incredibly excited to announce the launch of my recruiting software https://provenrecruits.com/ for companies to use. I have used it internally to source over a 100,000 job applicants over the last two years, skills test 20,000 people, and hire the best couple of hundred! I think this will revolutionize any company that chooses to use it.

I am very excited to announce the launch of the ProvenRecruits marketing site! You can check out the homepage here – https://provenrecruits.com/. What do you think?

I have been using the platform itself for my business for several years, check that out here – https://app.provenrecruits.com.

However, I think it was the first 10k distance I’ve run in the last 6 months! Endomondo reported my time at 55:47 which worked out to an 8:59 average pace.… read more “10k Record”

I am continuing to get my home office set up and it is coming along quite well! I have my sitting desk set up and am working to get my treadmill desk set up with a wireless access point for it.
