  • Legal Tech, Data, and Creative Problem Solving in the eDiscovery Industry | Slade Pickering | CS #23
    Apr 9 2026

    In this episode of The Offer Letter – Candidate Spotlight, I sit down with Slade Pickering to break down a field most people don’t fully understand eDiscovery and the role technology and creative problem solving play in it.

    Slade shares how he supports legal teams by working through massive volumes of digital data, helping isolate what matters, and ensuring everything is accurate, defensible, and ready for high-stakes litigation. We talk about the real learning curve in this space, what it’s like working with attorneys under pressure, and how small details can have major downstream impact.

    We also get into how creativity shows up in a highly technical field, the growing role of AI in eDiscovery, and the importance of building trust with clients when the work is complex and the stakes are high.

    Mar 26 2026

    In this episode of The Offer Letter – Candidate Spotlight, I sit down with Tom Kremer to break down a career path that’s becoming increasingly critical where journalism meets artificial intelligence.

    Tom brings over a decade of editorial experience before braking into the world of AI, applying principles like accuracy, fairness, and accountability to evaluate and improve AI-generated content. His work sits at the intersection of quality, risk, and trust, areas that are quickly becoming essential as companies scale large language models.

    We dig into how he identifies hallucinations and bias and talk about some real world examples. How and what actually breaks in AI content workflows, and why many organizations underestimate the importance of editorial rigor when deploying AI.

    The conversation also explores the growing need for governance, compliance, and structured oversight in AI systems, highlighting where Tom is looking to continue building his career.

    If you’re a hiring manager thinking about AI risk, content quality, or trust in your systems or a candidate looking to break into this space this episode offers a clear look at what strong, practical AI judgment actually looks like.
