Chat with Taj Haslani

I am a serial entrepreneur with 25+ years of experience building and leading businesses across staffing, recruiting, and technology. I build companies by staying close to real operating problems.

I am the Founder & CEO of JobTalk, a product company focused on AI voice agents for recruiting teams. The idea came from years of running large staffing operations, where speed and responsiveness often decide who wins the placement. JobTalk reflects my belief that AI should remove operational friction, not replace human judgment. By automating the repetitive parts of recruiting conversations, recruiters can focus on decisions, not dialing.

Before JobTalk, I founded and scaled ApTask into a global staffing and workforce solutions company. Watching recruiters spend most of their day on repetitive calls made one thing obvious: the constraint wasn't talent, it was conversation capacity.

I continue to support ApTask at the board level and selectively invest in early-stage companies working on practical AI and workflow-driven software.
