Discussion Topics From Last Time 🎯:
Deep dive into coordination & scheduling automation 📆: how folks are making it work, using AI, human in the loop
Any other recs for AI agents 🤖 to support recruiting workflows (3rd party tools and homemade)

Lexi will moderate a “popcorn-style 🍿” discussion around the areas of interest shared during intros.
Notes, tools, and prompts mentioned will be circulated afterwards in Slack 💬.
Each person will briefly share (keep to <5 min) ⏰:
