More Jobs and Fewer Interviews: Imagining an Abundant Future

At the Americas Summit 2025, Talkpush CEO Max Armbruster opened the event with a bold vision:
What if companies could hire more… while interviewing less?

But his message wasn’t about eliminating interviews.
It was about creating a world where we can interview everyone—removing friction for candidates and expanding opportunity at scale.

The hardest part is the first step

Max recalls his own experience as a young job seeker: clicking endlessly on job boards, wanting nothing more than to simply talk to someone.

That feeling hasn’t changed. Millions of candidates want the job, but they don’t want a process that feels overwhelming or impersonal.

Technology can make that first step easier—and that’s where Talkpush comes in.

A demonstration of the future: an AI recruiter who truly listens

Max showcased a multilingual AI recruiter capable of holding a natural conversation, switching languages, and presenting job opportunities instantly.

A simple, human-like experience that lowers anxiety and boosts engagement.

It’s not about fewer interviews. It’s about better ones.

For years, automation companies—including ours—promised:
“Fewer interviews, less work.”

Max challenges that idea. Interviews remain the most powerful tool in recruiting:

  • They reveal personality beyond the résumé
  • They uncover potential
  • They build connection

The new vision is clear:
Interview everyone.

And let AI help recruiters find the hidden gems.

AI as a partner: screening, evaluation, and guidance

Max describes how AI can now:

  • Pre-screen candidates
  • Conduct structured conversations
  • Run technical and psychological assessments
  • Evaluate fit
  • Guide candidates through their entire journey

All in minutes.

Helping more people get to work

Max ends with a simple truth:
Work builds stability, confidence, and possibility.

Talkpush’s mission is to help more people reach that point—by making applying and interviewing easier for everyone.
