The Human Edge: Succeeding with an AI-Powered Workforce

Frontline hiring has run on the same slow, silent process for two decades. The teams fixing that first are the ones winning the talent war now.
In this on-demand panel from SmartBrief’s AI Impact Series, Fountain’s Head of GTM Peter Eisenman joins a discussion on what agentic AI actually changes in frontline hiring, not the theory, the outcomes already showing up at scale. The conversation covers where automation removes friction without removing the recruiter, what builds real trust with candidates when AI enters the process, and what a hiring stack built for the next few years needs to do differently.
