DriverReach, the modern recruiting and compliance software platform, to host a new podcast, “Taking the Hire Road” with FreightWaves, the leading provider of trucking news, media, and analytics. 

INDIANAPOLIS, IN - (January 22, 2021) - DriverReach recently announced it is the host of a new trucking podcast in production with FreightWaves media, titled “Taking the Hire Road”. On this bi-monthly show, host Jeremy Reymer, Founder and CEO of DriverReach, interviews industry experts and thought leaders who bring their insight to the driver lifecycle as they discuss the industry’s greatest challenges: driver recruiting and retention.

The “Taking the Hire Road” podcast’s inaugural episode, featuring guest Max Farrell, Co-Founder and CEO of WorkHound, discussed how driver feedback looked different in 2020, proactive driver retention strategies, and predictions for 2021. 

“The trucking landscape is perhaps one of the most interesting and complex industries  – one that is ripe for innovation,” commented host Jeremy Reymer. “We’re thrilled to have this incredible platform, in partnership with FreightWaves, to highlight some of the movers and shakers in the industry who are truly making a difference in recruiting and retaining qualified truck drivers. My hope for this show is that we challenge our audience to think bigger, take action, and invest in their drivers.” 

“We approached Jeremy to host this podcast as we at FreightWaves have noticed an important gap in education regarding driver recruiting and retention – two critical but often neglected aspects of the trucking industry,” said Anthony Smith, Strategic Executive Producer & Lead Economist at FreightWaves. “Jeremy brings an experienced and trustworthy voice to this space, and we’re excited to partner with DriverReach to bring thought leadership and innovation to these topics.”

The bi-monthly show will be posted on Thursdays at 1pm EDT. Listeners can view available episodes at https://tv.freightwaves.com/browse or on platforms such as Apple Podcasts, Spotify, Stitcher, or wherever podcasts can be found.
