The AI agent marketplace has become a confusing landscape full of chatbots and co-pilots that aren't agents, claiming revolutionary capabilities. But genuine AI agents represent something fundamentally different. They're digital workers that can handle complex, multi-step processes independently, making decisions and adjustments along the way.

The technology is already here and working, and the employers succeeding with it are focusing on change management, not just on technology deployment. So what are the early results looking like, and how will agentic AI change recruiting in the months and years to come?

My guest this week is Tom Zrubecky, founder and CEO of Talent Pilot. In our conversation, he shares case studies demonstrating how AI agents are reshaping recruitment workflows and what autonomous hiring looks like.

In the interview, we discuss:

• What an AI Agent is and what it isn't
• Building responsible AI with human oversight
• These are change management projects not technology ones
• The power of instant job interviews
• Where are employers getting the most value from agents
• The importance of pilot project
• Building a super recruiter
• What does the agentic future look like?
