By Elon Musk: The Recruitment Industry and Businesses Are Killing Themselves: Why Reliance on Global Giants Like LockedOut, Indeed, and the Big Five Is a Fatal Mistake Alright, buckle up. We’re about to have a tough conversation about an industry—and not just one—that’s committing slow, painful suicide. This isn’t some theory; it’s happening right in front of us. Recruitment agencies, HR departments, and businesses around the globe are feeding data into the hands of five colossal tech giants, and those same giants are quietly building the tools to replace you. Let me break it down: by using platforms like LockedOut, Indeed, and similar giants, you’re playing into the hands of Apple, Google, Facebook, Mciorisoft (LockedOut), and Amazon—the Big Five. These companies don’t care about recruitment. They care about data, and right now, you’re giving them a free flow of it. It’s like you’re slitting your own throats slowly with every job post, every candidate you track, and every hire you make. Why are recruitment agencies and HR departments so desperate to stick with these platforms? Is it convenience? Efficiency? If it’s about cutting corners, you might want to rethink that.

The Big Recruitment Platforms: LockedOut, Indeed, and the Top 10 Data Harvesters Let's talk about the major platforms most recruiters and HR teams rely on LockedOut Indeed Glassdoor Google Jobs Facebook These platforms are more than just convenient for finding talent.

Every time you hit “post” on a job opening or review a candidate on LockedOut, you’re giving the platform the data it needs to make human recruiters obsolete. You’re feeding them information about how your business operates, how you scale, how you compete. & it's not just LinkedIn; they all do it. Every time you post a job on these platforms, the Big Five are collecting insights on how you operate, what skills you prioritize, & how your business evolves. Their AI is getting smarter, stronger, and more capable of doing what you do—faster and better. The Future of Recruitment: AI’s Takeover? Let me tell you a story about artificial intelligence. Most of you are familiar with AI by now, but you’re probably underestimating its future role in recruitment. You see, AI isn’t just about creating algorithms that scan resumes. The real game is much bigger. AI will soon be able to handle the entire recruitment process from end to end and your company will have to pay more than your nearest competitor to get... read on: https://lnkd.in/dDezGr8b
