Cold outreach emails from AI deliberately look like they come from a human "Sarah", and they use a different domain "getblona". Cheers, Sarah Talent Partner | Clera The phrases are enticing and manipulative: "I'm working with a VC-backed startup on their engineering hiring" "Totally understand if timing isn’t right. I’ll close your file unless you’d still like intros to the teams hiring" I don't have a "file" with them, they don't really have a "role for me", when you go to their website you realize they use AI to harvest profiles for a recruiting database. If you read closely a bunch of the positive reviews you realize they're clearly AI generated text too.

Hi John, thanks for the honest feedback - I hear you, and I'm sorry the outreach felt off. You're right that phrases like "close your file" can sound transactional. That's not the intent, but I take the point that the language should better reflect what we actually do. I will make sure that we'll work on that! On how Clera works: we do leverage AI to match candidates with roles across 600+ VC-backed startups, and I understand that can feel impersonal if the match isn't right for you. We're not building a database to sell, we're trying to make relevant intros. But if that wasn't your experience, that's on us to improve. On the reviews, those are real people on our platform, verifiable through LinkedIn. I get the skepticism though. I'd genuinely love to hear more about what went wrong. Feel free to text me directly: [email protected] Best, Seb (co-founder)

I find this to be better than LinkedIn since it matches you with companies that are a good fit instead of just showing the most popular companies with postings. The fact that matching is done for you and you don't have to sift is a lot better than having to look through so many postings yourself. The team is also really involved and helps with filling out your screening questions for you

Likely a scam. “Founder” reached out saying “ I'm working with a VC-backed startup on their engineering hiring - they're growing incredibly fast and are looking to expand their team. Your experience seemed like a good fit and I thought you might be interested. Do you want me to introduce you directly to the founders? Happy to share more details” Upon inquiring further, the first thing they asked for was a copy of my resume but after some back and forth to see if there was a real opportunity the “Founder” got back with this: “To be transparent: my initial outreach was templated, so I don't have a specific role to point you to just yet. Here's the honest version of what actually happens at Clera: I need your LinkedIn profile to run a proper match against our network of VC-backed startups. Once I have that, I can pull up the specific companies, founders, and roles that actually fit your Go and ML background, then you can do your due diligence.” If you can’t be transparent initially, what makes you think I will trust you with my information? Seems like a resume mining + user generating/onboarding scam

Clera reached out to me early March, and by end of March I had my dream job! I cannot recommend Clera enough, they have been proactive, helpful, and kind through the whole process. If you are looking for a new start-up job, Clera is absolutely the way to go!
