  • Stop Blaming “Ghost Jobs”: How to Create Your Own Referral & Get Interviews

    Stop Blaming “Ghost Jobs”: How to Create Your Own Referral & Get Interviews
    Feb 19 2026
    Ghost Jobs Aren’t the Problem: Beat Auto-Apply Bots by Creating Your Own Referral Rick Girard argues that the silence after hundreds of LinkedIn Easy Apply submissions isn’t mainly caused by “ghost jobs,” but by overwhelming hiring noise from auto-apply bots, keyword gaming, and fake candidates that clog ATS systems and bury real applicants. He challenges the “badge of honor” mindset around high application volume, warns that auto-applying and not following job-post instructions can get candidates filtered out, and says resumes and keyword matching are increasingly ineffective. Girard explains how candidates can bypass job boards and HR gatekeepers by acting like a referral: pick five aligned companies, research the business, identify a specific gap or “leak” (revenue, execution, people, or customer issues), then contact the decision-maker—ideally starting at the CEO/executive level—with a value-first message that links problem X to how you solved it with Y to produce Z. He outlines how to present a succinct solution in a meeting and ask for the opportunity to solve the problem, positioning the candidate as a problem solver who can be hired into the role or have a role created. He closes with three takeaways: stop using Easy Apply, target the problem not the position, and bypass gatekeepers by going directly to decision makers with demonstrated value. 00:00 Why 300 Applications Get You Silence (It’s Not Just ‘Ghost Jobs’) 01:22 The Real Enemy: Auto-Apply Bots, Keyword Games & Candidate Fraud 02:58 Inside the Hiring Black Hole: Why ATS Filters Out Real Humans 05:09 Reject the Status Quo: Stop Being Applicant #347 and Think Referral 06:02 Create Your Own Referral, Step-by-Step (Bypass the Portal) 07:21 Sniper Strategy: Pick 5 Companies and Stand Out on Purpose 08:25 Find the Business ‘Leak’: Research Gaps and Build a Hypothesis 10:07 Reach Decision-Makers with Value: Call, Don’t Beg for a Job 12:23 Win the Meeting: Present a Clear Solution and Ask to Solve It 13:48 3 Key Takeaways + Final Wrap-Up Host Links: LinkedIn: Rick Girard Company: Intertru, Inc.

  • Who’s Your Small but Effective Team with Justin Gray

    Who’s Your Small but Effective Team with Justin Gray
    Feb 13 2026
    A CEO I work with called me in June and said, “Rick, we’ve hit $1M and we’re stuck. “If I could just hire three more ‘me’s,’ we’d be fine.” I had to tell him the hard truth: “You don’t need more of you. You need the people you’re missing—those who augment your weaknesses." He was also in a mad hurry to delegate recruiting to someone else on his team. But he needed to take ownership We focused on recruiting as 40% of his job, clarified what the business actually needed (gaps, not clones), and rebuilt the hiring process to prioritize real-world discovery over interview theater. That’s when the flywheel started to move. 3 months later he has built 80% of his team and they are highly effective in building the business together. Approaching the $2M mark! I’m Rick Girard, and welcome to the Hire Power Radio Show. We help entrepreneurs and executives Win-Win the strongest people. By sharing insights from top-performing rebel entrepreneurs, game-changers & industry leaders. On today’s episode of Hire Power Radio, I’m joined by Justin Gray, Managing Partner of In Revenue – In 2021 after his final exit as an operator, Justin co-founded In Revenue Capital. As the firm’s Managing Partner, Justin and his team couple GTM expertise with capital allocation to empower seed-stage B2B vertical SaaS standouts through a first of its kind model called Operator-Immersive capital. Justin is an award-winning 5X entrepreneur and CEO who has made a career of launching and scaling companies, ultimately guiding them to successful exits of over 250MM.

  • How to Define Accountability and Stop Micromanaging with Brian H. Ferguson

    How to Define Accountability and Stop Micromanaging with Brian H. Ferguson
    Feb 13 2026
    I was having lunch with a fellow CEO recently, and he looked completely wiped out. He told me he was stuck in this exhausting cycle—constantly trying to empower his leaders to own their roles, only to have to step back in and make the decisions himself. He said, “Rick, I feel like I’m constantly telling my people to take the wheel, to be accountable, but the minute things get tough, they throw the keys back at me! I want them to ‘own their box,’ but I’m terrified of them ‘drowning.’ I keep double-checking their work, and then they just shut down and say, ‘Well, you just make the decision then.’ I’m back to having everything on my plate.” When I asked him what this was costing him, he said, “Time, trust, and growth.” I’m Rick Girard, and welcome to the Hire Power Radio Show. We help entrepreneurs and executives Win-Win the strongest people. By sharing insights from top-performing rebel entrepreneurs, game-changers & industry leaders.
