Reintroducing: the AI recruiter who never sleeps.
In this episode of The Growth Game Podcast, Paul DeLuca sits down with returning guest Sammy Singh, CEO of WurkNow, to revisit the hot topic of AI voice recruiting in staffing workflows—and what his team has observed since the first launch.
Sammy breaks down how their AI recruiter (“Luna”) calls, texts, and qualifies candidates in multiple languages, and what they’ve seen as clients scale usage up, pull it back, and then reintroduce it more thoughtfully around compliance and cost.
You’ll hear:
🤖 Where AI voice recruiting actually fits in the funnel (and where simple texting still wins)
🤖 Why some firms went “all in” on AI, then hit pause—and how they’re using it now
🤖 How to think about AI as a way to buy back recruiter time, not replace recruiters
If you’re a staffing owner or operator trying to figure out what AI adoption looks like on the recruiting side, this episode gives you a grounded look at what’s working today, and where it’s heading.
