AI agents are everywhere in recruiting tech right now. But before we get into what's real and what's hype,  we need to talk about what actually makes them work.

Model Context Protocol (MCP) is the connective tissue behind truly agentic AI. It's how AI systems share context, talk to each other, and act across your entire stack. If you're not sure what that means yet, you're not alone, and that's exactly why we're starting there.

In this session, we'll build from the ground up: what MCP is, why it matters, and what it means for how recruiting teams will actually work in the next few years. We'll cover how organizations across functions — engineering, design, sales, and yes, recruiting — are already shifting the way they get things done. And we'll get into what that shift looks like in practice, with real examples of teams building custom workflows today.

Join Andrew Hahn (Head of Product Design @ Gem), Genevieve Sublette (Engineering Manager @ Gem), and Zackary Skelly (Head of Talent @ Dragonfly Capital), moderated by Kirsten Byron on June 23rd at 11 AM PT.

What you'll learn:

• What MCP is, and why it's the question you should be asking every recruiting platform you evaluate

• How work is changing across organizations, and what that means for TA teams specifically

• Real examples of recruiting teams building custom workflows with MCP today

• Where Gem fits in, and what's coming next

• Live Q&A with Andrew, Genevieve, and Zackary
