What Sparsh Writes About
AI recruiting software and how hiring teams actually deploy it: AI sourcing, live two-way AI interviews, evidence-based candidate scoring, and the operational side of running high-volume hiring without adding recruiters. Articles draw on interviews run on The Cognitive and on the hiring teams using it, rather than on secondary reporting.
Experience
Sparsh founded The Cognitive and built its AI recruiting platform: AI sourcing that finds candidates and verifies their contact details, a live AI interviewer that holds a two-way conversation with a human voice and pushes back on vague answers, and evidence-scored shortlists where every score links to a quote and a timestamp. One pipeline from search to shortlist. The platform has run more than 20,000 interviews across engineering, sales, support, healthcare and high-volume operational hiring.
That work is the source material for most of what appears here. Where an article cites a hiring outcome — a time-to-hire figure, a completion rate, a funnel conversion — it comes from a named customer engagement documented in the case studies, or it is attributed to the third-party research it came from. Where something is an opinion or an untested hypothesis, it says so.
