This course contains the use of artificial intelligence.

The recruiting tool you need either charges per seat every month or sits in the IT queue for months. Here are 117 tools to build it yourself with an AI agent: 88 ready-to-use templates, procedures, AI prompts and checklists, 2 methods explained, 11 services shown on screen and 16 working files.

Open a lecture, take the build prompt, and build your first tool this evening.

Why recruiters wait for tools

Every useful idea needs a vendor, a budget or a programmer. Searches are typed by hand, candidates live in spreadsheets, outreach is copied and pasted, and scheduling takes a dozen emails.

What changes after this course

You build a Boolean builder, candidate capture, outreach personaliser, job ad studio, screening bot, self-scheduling and a mini ATS, and share them with your team safely.

What is inside: 117 tools, counted lecture by lecture

You do not have to take this number on trust. Open any lecture and read its description: every tool inside is listed there by name.

Who is teaching

I am Mike, the #1 HR instructor on Udemy, with 1,800,000+ course enrollments from 170,000 students, and the author of about 200 books on Amazon. I built the people system at Preply as it became a unicorn and worked at Wargaming, iDeals and Alfa-Bank across 20 years in HR. I hold PHRi, SHRM-CP and HCI sHRBP certifications and represent HRCI in Eastern Europe.

At Wargaming monthly bonuses ran on a self-built portal on SharePoint, because no ready system fitted. When people asked me where to calculate and store such things, I agreed it was a good idea to start with Excel and not try to automate everything at once. A tool you build yourself should start small and grow with the work.
