Welcome back to The New Warehouse Podcast. In this episode, host Kevin welcomes Read Egger, Founder and CEO of Achilles, to discuss how AI improves hiring frontline employees. Egger shares insights from over a decade in industrial and staffing environments, explaining why traditional hiring models fail hourly workers. 

The episode also includes a live demonstration of Sam in action. During the conversation, Egger has Sam call Kevin and walk through a real-time screening, giving listeners a firsthand look at how the AI recruiter sounds, responds, and adapts in a realistic hiring scenario.
