Sam Fitzroy
Sam Fitzroy is the co-founder and CEO of Dalia, a Boston-based candidate conversion platform that re-engages job seekers who visit career sites but don't apply. A former Indeed early employee and later VP at The Muse and partnerships lead at Jobcase, he started Dalia in 2019 and raised a $5M Series A in January 2023. His pitch, delivered in interviews with a kind of exhausted evangelism, is that 75% of applicants drop off at the account-creation step, and someone should probably do something about that.
Kshitij Jain
Kshitij Jain - widely known as KJ - is the Founder and CEO of Joveo, a Menlo Park-based AI-powered programmatic recruitment advertising platform that serves Fortune 500 employers including Wells Fargo, Barclays, Rolls-Royce, and Sony. A two-time founder with 20-plus years in the recruitment industry, he previously built MoBolt, a job application optimization startup acquired by Indeed in 2014 for a double-digit million dollar sum in under two years of operation. Before that he spent roughly eleven years at Monster Worldwide across roles spanning Asia Pacific, the Middle East, Africa, and India. KJ's driving mission - delivering the right job to every person - is embedded in Joveo's name itself, and his 4-3-2-1 model (four clicks, three applies, two shortlists, one hire) defines his philosophy on making recruitment humane at scale.
