Eng | Dev Talent Problems- FiINDING
- Top 10% passive talented engineers & culture fits for the long-term (730,000 new tech jobs in 2015; 1/5th of all new office jobs)
- SCREENING | SELECTING- Bad hires cost a company 1.5x to 4x of the terminated
employee’s salary and can metastasize cultures- HIRING
- Slow, long, costly company hiring funnels that eats up teams' valuable work hours (Glassdoor 2015 study shows 35 days for 1 hire)
- RETAINING- Long-term hires (On average, engineers change jobs every 9.5
months) ie: Google is 1.1 years and Amazon is .88

Field of NightmaresBuild it and they will come…Don’t Assume!
- Did not test if people in socialverse WOULD refer their friends- With Uber, everyone knows how to drive their own car- It costs a lot of $ & time to just get impressions | eyeballs- Impressions do not translate into a new user action - LINKEDIN CPC Campaign Tests:- $10k per month A to L Testing; not just A/B- Results: 500,000 impressions in 30 days; 3,000 clicks; 220 new
users…REALLY? $45.45 cost per user acquisition- I was told I was doing well!

Hurdle 2: UI
jobzlab.com
Low Friction UI- $24,000 to build MVP web site- Keywords only to find jobs- No alerts for Hiring Managers when new applicants apply- No daily User email blasts…”$5k bounty for Sr Web Dev in SF”- Site is too wordy- No App, but mobile optimized- LI had just changed it’s plug in rules at launch- Video takes too long to download- No Employer White Labeling- Cannot track referrals via Facebook, Linkedin, etc, only emails- NEED A 2.0 WEB SITE…$$$

Hurdle 3: Revenue
jobzlab.com
Business Model: A | B Tests
21
Tier 1 (Years 1 & 2)JobzLab receives 7.5% fee for each external hire
Tier 2 (Start Year 3)Monthly or Annual Subscription Model Per Employer
Two-Tier Revenue Model
+
jobzlab.com
Where to Find New Users?- Easier Said Than Done…- Rev model 7.5% fee cannot scale today; takes time & $ to get
Users- Big Q: How does JobzLab acquire new users cost-effectively?- A shift, not pivot…Internal Employee Referral Tool Box- Salesforce Meeting: 50% of all successful hires are Employee
Referrals- They have a dedicated army- Companies between 50-250 employees do not drive employee
referrals- JobzLab can acquire employees & friends as new users and drive
employee/friend chain referrals for small to mid size companies- Annual Subscription Model
jobzlab.com
Business Model: Test A
- 7.5% fee for each hire (Recruiters on average earn 28% fees and low fees are 15%)
- Companies designate referral “bounties” (via Jobz guide) for each opening from $2,000 to $6,500 (Friend, Self & 3 in Chain).
23
100 Companies X 10 Openings for Each = 1,000 Openings250 JobzLab Hires: $125,000 (avg salary) X 7.5% = $9,375
250 Hires (25% of 1,000 openings) X $9,375 (fee) = $2,343,750 Gross RevBounties Paid Out: $3,000 (avg bounty) X 250 = $750,000

Hurdle 3: HR
jobzlab.com
Getting HR Meetings- Tend to be slow to respond or unresponsive to an intro meeting- Not very open minded to new start-up, proof of concept- Married to ATS that is not very effective- When adopt JobzLab, tend to be very slow to correspond- Prefer not to pay fees versus hiring their own candidates- Slow to respond to your candidates during the entire recruiting
funnel- Possible Remedy? The Shift…- Contact COO at 50-250 sized companies…COOs get the value add- Employees become Users; JobzLab drives the employees & friends
referrals process for companies- JobzLab’s goal is to get companies to 40-50% of all hires to be
employee referrals

Hurdle 4: Biz Dev
jobzlab.com
Go Big!?Enterprise Sales Only…mistake- Biz Dev Advisor suggested to go after Enterprise companies
only…the rest will follow- Landed PlayStation, but bread n butter companies might be more
small to mid sized with limited resources- Lost months during long winded enterprise sales process, Airbnb,
Salesforce, Sony, etc.- Just beginning 50-250 sized biz dev to COOs to be internal referral
tool box- Keep the “story” simple- Need 1 or 2 Sales help- Need $ for Sales help

Hurdle 5: Competition
jobzlab.com
Lots Can Happen in 6 Months
- Not much competition in 2014- $416 Bil Market…Got crowded fast- Digital Hiring Craze: Many digital platforms surfaced- Several are acquired or got out of gates early- Is there room for JobzLab?- What problems do we solve that others don’t?- Could we become a Unicorn?
