Zuckerberg, Chen said, has personally "hand-cooked" and "hand-delivered" soup to researchers he wanted to recruit away from OpenAI. And it wasn't a joke, the executive insisted.

Chen confessed he has now adopted the tactic, delivering soup to his own recruits as he hopes to poach talent from Meta.

When the model for the company was curated at a hackathon in São Paulo, Foody knew that he, Adarsh Hiremath and Surya Midha had built something that couldn't be replicated in classrooms. Its AI-powered hiring platform automates aspects of the hiring process, such as resume screening, candidate matching and AI-powered interviews. Within nine months, he and his co-founders had turned the idea into a company with a $1 million revenue run rate, which they claim is one of the fastest-scaling startups of the AI era.

A recruiter's day often involves processing many applications, making it easy for eligible applicants to get buried. Between sorting resumes, filtering out mismatches, and keeping up with follow-ups, there's barely any time left for what really matters-hiring the right people. That's exactly why more companies are turning to AI. In fact, 88% of organizations already use AI to handle tasks like initial screening.
