About the Author
Jonathan Davis is the author of the HIRE BETTER™ Blog and the CEO & Co-Founder of Hire Better.
Jonathan has spent the last decade helping build companies from scratch. It started with an e-commerce company in New York City in the late 90’s and he quickly learned that he loved helping other companies build strong systems that would support rapid growth. After five years as a Principal in a Staff Leasing and HR-Outsourcing firm he started working on the one area where he saw the biggest lack of viable solutions for growing companies: Talent Acquisition. A self-professed “Operational Dork”, Jonathan is responsible for the strategic leadership of the Hire Better Team as they continue to revolutionize the world of recruiting through a focus on process, metrics and technology. Put more simply, he wants to help companies HIRE BETTER™.
The Bottom Line: Any Company can afford to partner with the Hire Better Team. No company can afford not to.
He graduated from the University at Albany in upstate New York and shortly thereafter was lured away by the environment and lifestyle of Austin, TX. An active member of the Young Entrepreneurs’ Organization (EO), he sits on the Global Committee for Emerging Programs and completed an 18 month term as the Champion for EO’s Accelerator Program in May 09. He’ll graduate from the MIT “Birthing of Giants” program in 2010, a non-degreed Entrepreneurial Master’s Program. Never one to accept what the marketplace has to offer, he’s become a technology junkie in the last few years and spends most every night working with our Development Team to improve our proprietary web-based software that we call The Talent Vault®. When he’s not at the office you’ll find him officiating a college baseball game or regaling a perfect stranger on the merits of capitalism at a local coffee house.
