Hi I’m Adam. I’m not your average consultant… What makes me different? - I can provide advanced tech AND advanced design AND business knowledge AND I’m a native English speaker. THERE’S NOT MANY OF US! - I’ve built two advanced AI platforms (IIMAGINE AI and OneClickWorker - see more detail about them and other projects in my portfolio) that use the most advanced AI tech (see more below). SEE PROJECTS BELOW. - I’m a business owner that knows what it’s like to hire freelancers. I spent $250K on Upwork as AS A CLIENT with 5 star reviews (look me up or see screenshot in my Upwork profile portfolio images). - My TEDx talk about entrepreneurship has more than 1 million views (see link in my Upwork portfolio images) - I'm happy to work with a fixed budget and timeline to make sure your project is done on time and on budget.

Recruiters can insert ‘human in the loop’ at any stage but it’s possible to hire without any human involvement!

Hi, I am Tayla, a recruitment specialist and B2B sales talent partner. I help growing teams build simple, human hiring systems so they can find the right people, not just fill seats. I am currently a B2B Sales Talent Partner with Earlywork, working fully remote and assessing candidates across motivation, confidence, resilience, communication and emotional intelligence. Before that, I spent years in agency and internal recruitment, plus hands on HR and operations in wild environments like a remote island resort. Now I use that mix to support clients online with recruitment and hiring ops. What I can help with - Recruitment support - Writing job ads and role profiles that actually attract the right applicants - Screening CVs and shortlisting candidates against clear, agreed criteria - Running first stage interviews and structured screening calls - Preparing clear candidate summaries so you can make fast decisions - Reference checks and candidate communication so no one is left hanging Hiring systems and admin - Setting up or cleaning a simple ATS, spreadsheet or Notion based pipeline - Creating interview scorecards and question banks for your team - Organising interview schedules across time zones - Tagging and organising your existing candidate pool so it is actually usable Light people operations support - Onboarding checklists and day one info packs for new starters - Basic hiring and communication templates for small teams - Simple feedback surveys around hiring and onboarding so you can improve each round How I work - Remote first: I have been working fully remote across Upwork, Airtasker and Earlywork since early 2024. Clear communication, organised systems and respectful candidate experience are non negotiables for me. - Startup ready: I am comfortable with vague briefs and shifting priorities. I can take what is in your head and turn it into a repeatable hiring process. - Human and honest: I love interviewing and making people feel seen, while still being direct about what is and is not a fit. If you want someone who can own the detail of your hiring while you stay focused on the bigger picture, send me a message with what you are hiring for and I will share how I would support you in week one.
