Warehouse hiring software for every shift
TalentAxis is a high-volume hiring platform for hourly teams. Pickers, packers, loaders and forklift drivers apply by text or WhatsApp, from a sign at the gate or a job ad link, and you see who can work your shift.
Why warehouse hiring never catches up
Distribution centers hire every week and hire twice as hard at peak, mostly from people who apply on a phone.
- Most clicks on a job ad go nowhere. The median apply rate across job ads was 5.19% of clicks in 2025 (Appcast, 2026 Recruitment Marketing Benchmark Report).
- The phone is the computer. 34% of US adults in households earning under $30K use a smartphone as their only internet access (Pew Research Center).
- Good candidates have other offers. Recent hires held a median of 2 job offers (ZipRecruiter, New Hire Survey Q2 2026). The site that answers first fills the shift.
- Reminders get people to show up. In healthcare, reminders cut missed appointments by 25% (BMJ Open, 21 trials).
How it works
How it works in a warehouse
From the sign at your gate to a confirmed interview, in one chat on the candidate's phone.
A sign at the gate
Each job gets a now hiring sign with a QR code and a short code. Put it at the entrance, in the break room, on flyers or at job fairs.
Apply in a chat
People scan it or text the code and apply by text or WhatsApp, with no new app and no account.
Your questions, one at a time
The chat asks your screening questions: shift, overnight, forklift, lifting.
The best ones on top
AI scores each applicant from their answers, so you call the right people first.
Interviews that get confirmed
The recruiter picks a time; the candidate confirms with one tap. Reminders go out on their own.
Spanish-speaking crews
Candidates can apply in English, Spanish or Portuguese.
