Let’s face it—if you’ve ever tried to hire even one person for your company, you already know how overwhelming it can get. There’s the never-ending pile of resumes, that one candidate who keeps emailing you every day, and of course, the dreaded spreadsheet that somehow grows more columns overnight.
