Season One | Episode 30
The resume is not dead yet.But it is definitely on life support.
In this episode of Talentless, Des and Ashley sit down with Mayur Macwan, CEO of Roundone.ai, to talk about what happens when the traditional resume stops being a useful signal and hiring teams are left drowning in volume, noise, and top-of-funnel chaos.
They get into why so much human time gets burned before any real evidence exists, what AI screening can actually solve, and why the goal is not to remove recruiters from the process. It is to give them better information, faster.
This conversation covers:
Why the top of the funnel is broken
Whether the resume still does what we need it to do
Why quantity of applicants is not the same as quality
How AI voice screening creates more signal than a polished resume alone
Why video screening introduces bigger risk than people realize
What “human in the loop” should actually mean
How AI can improve recruiter productivity without replacing recruiter judgment
Why candidate experience still matters, even in an AI-enabled process
If you’ve ever posted a job and watched 1,000 applications roll in before you could blink, this episode is for you.
