TriStarr joined Bullhorn’s Amplify Pioneer program, getting early access to features as they were released. Operations Analyst Paige Fiore rolled them out in stages, so adoption felt gradual rather than disruptive. Now, Amplify is part of nearly every role at TriStarr. Across recruiting, sales, and operations, the tool works differently for each person, but the result is the same: less grind, more time on the work that drives placements.
Recruiting
Staffing managers Shannon Millar and Kristina Cordova use Amplify Chat to rank and compare candidates, find matches for open roles, and research unfamiliar job titles from scratch.
Millar’s go-to for a role she doesn’t know: ask Amplify to explain it like she’s five years old, then follow up on pay ranges, how to position it to candidates, and which interview questions reveal the right fit. Both recruiters build interview prep scorecards in Amplify before every screening call.
Leadership
Lead Staffing Manager Lauren Hunter-Parish uses the AI pre-screener to prioritize outreach, focusing first on candidates who completed the screen with high scores rather than starting from a raw list. She uses Amplify Chat to compare candidates, generate interview questions, and prepare for client meetings. For a client she’d never worked with before, Amplify surfaced a full summary of the company’s history and TriStarr’s prior relationship in seconds.
Sales
Director of Business Development Erika Bodell uses Amplify Chat to research prospects, identify stakeholders, and build targeted outreach lists. This work used to take hours, and now takes under a minute. She generated a list of 102 government and education targets for a campaign, then asked Amplify to find similar companies outside her database. It returned 52 prioritized new prospects in about 40 seconds, each with a personalized draft email ready to send.
Operations
Fiore builds pre-made prompts in Prompt Studio so recruiters can get what they need from Amplify without having to write prompts from scratch. She also ran a two-month adoption competition that surfaced unexpected use cases, including recruiters using Amplify to build featured candidate profiles for TriStarr’s website.
