1552: Scale Your Hiring with AI Video Interviews and Digital Twin Recruiters with Lohith Naidu

What this episode covers

When seasoned AI builder and inventor Lohith Naidu teamed up with a recruitment veteran, they created Hireko.ai, a “digital twin” recruiter that can see facial expressions, hear tone, and hold human‑like conversations with thousands of candidates at once. On this episode of Marketer of the Day, Lohith explains how Hireko helps enterprises move beyond identical, AI‑written resumes by running smart video interviews that reveal who candidates really are, not just what their CV says. https://youtu.be/EiDuhzX2-j0 Lohith shares how his experience at Amazon, Microsoft, Roblox, and Bing prepared him to build ultra‑fast conversational AI and how his co‑founder’s 20 years in recruiting exposed the bottlenecks of traditional hiring. He also opens up about “micro sufferings," the long nights, overlapping full‑time work and startup life, and the mental strain of solving hard problems and how those struggles built the resilience behind Hireko. Looking ahead, he believes AI won’t replace humans, but that people who know how to use AI will replace those who don’t. Quotes: “AI isn’t here to replace humans; it’s here to amplify the humans who are willing to learn it.” “Resumes are starting to look the same because AI writes them, real conversations and real faces are where the true differences show up.” “Every late night, every hard problem, and every micro suffering compounds into the one thing no one can copy: your experience.” Resources: Lohith Naidu on LinkedIn Hireko AI
