Who this is for
Why recruiters run with AISS
- Built on a real desk, not in a lab. AISS runs the same plays a top biller runs, because it was built by one who still runs a desk. Not a generic automation wrapper.
- It works in your voice. Outreach and follow-up go out sounding like you, not like a bot blast. Your relationships stay yours.
- The machine takes the 30 hours, you keep the 3. Sourcing, sequencing, logging, and admin move to the engine so your week is built around conversations, not buried under them.
- Paced to what one desk can close. Not a firehose of leads. A workable handful every morning, sized to what you can actually work.
- Independent-first. Made for solo recruiters and boutique firms, the desks the enterprise tools were never built for.
Where the recruiting week actually goes
- Sourcing and list-building, hours of it, much of it repeatable
- Scheduling and rescheduling, a constant low-value time tax
- Writing and sending outreach and follow-up one message at a time
- Copying notes and updates between your inbox, ATS, and spreadsheets
- Admin and reporting that produces nothing on its own
- The result: only a thin slice of the week left for the conversations that pay
What to take away
- The problem is not too few hours. It is what fills them.
- Repeatable, non-relationship work is exactly what should come off your plate.
- Flip the ratio and the same week produces more fees with no extra hours.
Frequently asked questions
Why is so much of recruiting admin?
Because the tools grew by adding steps, not removing them. Every system wants its own data entry, and it all lands on the recruiter. The work is repeatable, which is exactly why it can be offloaded.
What should a recruiter stop doing personally?
The repeatable, non-relationship work: bulk sourcing, scheduling, first-pass outreach, note-copying, and logging. Keep the conversations. Offload the rest.
Who built this
Lee Fossey has spent nearly thirty years in executive search and talent acquisition, running business development, building desks, and billing at the top of the market. AISS is the system he built to run his own desk: the BD, sourcing, sequencing, and follow-up handled by an engine in his own voice, so his hours go to the conversations that actually close. He would rather show you the desk working than sell you on it.
