Why Pharma HR's Phone Screens Could Fail an FDA Audit

Eli Lilly just committed $27 billion to four new US manufacturing plants — and that means 3,000-plus GMP-regulated jobs that need to be filled fast. But here's what most pharma HR teams aren't thinking about: in FDA-regulated manufacturing, your hiring process is part of your quality system. And right now, phone screens are leaving a dangerous documentation gap. In this episode, we dig into why the traditional phone screen fails the GMP documentation test, how AI audio screening creates an audit-ready record for every candidate interaction, and why the most compliant screening process might also be the most cost-effective one your team has ever run. If your company is hiring GMP workers — or expects to as the US pharma manufacturing surge continues — this one's for you.
