Before you speak to a candidate, Amy gathers everything you already know about them, past conversations, notes, emails, and where things stand, so you pick up exactly where you left off.

## What you get

* A recap of your prior conversations and notes on the candidate
* The current stage and what was last discussed
* Any commitments or next steps still open
* The context you need to start the conversation on the front foot

## When to use it

* You're about to call a candidate you've spoken to before
* You're running several searches and can't hold every history in your head
* You want continuity across a long process

## How to activate

Ask Amy to brief you before the conversation.

```text title="Copy and send to Amy" wrap theme={null}
Brief me on [candidate] before my call. Recap our prior conversations and notes, tell me the current stage and what we last discussed, and flag any open commitments or next steps.
```
