    #9 - Sean Page, Desirée Aguirre, Beth Wolfe, Stephanie Kara Jordan: LIVE from RecFest 2025 Day 2
    2025/11/11
    Recorded live on Day 2 at RecFest 2025, this episode keeps the energy rolling with another round of rapid-fire conversations from the Purple Acorn livestream — mixing laughter, lessons, and the real-life chaos of recruiting. Mike Peditto sits down with four new voices to explore everything from AI tools and hiring horror stories to burnout, resilience, and why community is the recruiter’s true secret weapon. Sean Page (TA Manager, Propel) Shares how a startup mindset shapes his approach to “quality of hire,” why the best AI partners understand the hiring ecosystem, and a cautionary tale about a hiring manager’s lowball offer that backfired spectacularly. Desirée Aguirre (Senior Recruiter, Hims & Hers) Reflects on RecFest’s “carnival meets conference” vibe, a nightmare scenario involving visa sponsorship gone wrong, and how intentional team rituals and celebrating small wins keep recruiters grounded and connected amid the chaos. Beth Wolfe (Senior Director of Recruiting, Daxko) Finds inspiration in Johnny Campbell’s talk on agentic AI, then shares her own fresh recruiting nightmare involving a rogue hiring manager and an unapproved offer — a reminder that even seasoned recruiters aren’t immune to surprises. Stephanie Kara Jordan (Senior Recruiter, The Washington Post) Closes out Day 2 with a deeply human story — filling a role after a team member’s passing — and her mission to bring empathy and transparency to recruiting. She discusses neurodiversity, AI ethics, and why real connection still matters most. Four unfiltered snapshots from RecFest Day 2 — proof that even under the blazing Nashville sun, recruiters show up, share stories, and remind each other why this profession still matters.

    #8 - Desiree Goldey, Ashley King, Daniela Herrera, and Tejal Rives: LIVE from RecFest 2025 Day 1
    2025/11/04
    Recorded live on Day 1 at RecFest 2025, brings four rapid-fire conversations that mix heat-wave humor with real talk on burnout, community, AI, and the wildest recruiter stories. Mike Peditto opens each chat with his signature question, as the Nashville sun turns up the temperature and the energy stays high. Desiree Goldey (host, “Talentless”)Why in-person events reset careers, how last year pushed her to launch a podcast and rethink her path, and a reality check on the current market where resilience matters. She caps it with a classic recruiter horror story about a candidate arriving drunk to an interview. Ashley King (co-host, “Talentless”) Day 1 highlights like the Shaker Booth and money-grab machine, plus people-first leadership tactics including weekly “peaks and pits,” holding space for teams without forcing it, and remembering that people come before headcount. She adds a clear PSA on conference safety based on a past incident she had to manage. Daniela Herrera Spotlights sessions on neurodiversity and a purpose-built bot that beat generic chat tools for onboarding and performance prompts. Uses that example to urge leaders to vet AI carefully, question the ethics behind tools, and confirm the problem they actually solve before buying the buzzword. Tejal Rives (Product Marketing Manager, Amazon, former recruiter) Explains a TA-adjacent role and the vendor attention that comes with a recognizable badge. Closes with durable lessons: have a burnout plan before you burn out, and show up as your true self to attract the right community. Four quick hits from RecFest Day 1, equal parts sweaty, candid, and useful.

    #7 - Erin Riska - The Worldschooling Recruiter’s Story
    2025/10/28
    In this episode of Is This Still a Good Time?, Mike Peditto sits down with Erin Riska, a longtime talent acquisition leader and full-time digital nomad who’s spent the last five years traveling the world with her husband and kids. From her current home base in San Miguel de Allende, Mexico, Erin shares how she built a career that supports her lifestyle — balancing independent recruiting work with Roam Base, the worldschooling hub she created for families learning and living abroad. Mike and Erin dig into what it really means to build a meaningful recruiting career outside of big tech and flashy logos. Erin talks about thriving in small and midsize organizations, the joy of “doing it all,” and why autonomy and curiosity have guided every stage of her journey. They also unpack the reality of recruiting in industries like mental health and construction — where hiring is harder but impact runs deep. The two trade stories about fake résumés, over-involved parents (including one mom who actually did her kid’s interview!), and the wild world of LinkedIn “career advice.” Erin’s grounded, analytical approach to recruiting — and her calm take on AI, social media, and career design — is a refreshing reminder that you can build success on your own terms. It’s a funny, honest, and inspiring conversation that speaks directly to recruiters who don’t have big-name logos on their résumés — but still make a big difference every day.
