Hey legends, welcome back to AI Paycheck! In this explosive episode, your host Raje sits down with the mastermind, Mani, who cracked the code to a $30,000/month AI recruitment side hustle, scaled in under a year and 90% automated!
Are HR teams drowning in resumes? They're facing massive issues with volume, unconscious bias, and slow hiring speeds. Companies lose a staggering $4,000/month per unfilled role—a $200 billion problem begging for an AI solution. Enterprise tools are too expensive for most small to medium businesses (SMBs), creating a massive opportunity for you to become their AI hero.
Mani reveals his exact 7-step blueprint to launch this lucrative hustle, even if you have zero coding skills!
