AI has expanded candidate pools 340%, cut sourcing time 67%, and compressed interview scheduling from days to minutes.
But 73% of TA leaders still rank critical thinking as their #1 priority in 2026 — not AI skills.

The risk isn't AI replacing recruiters. It's recruiters who automate broken processes.
Design the system. Don't just operate inside it. That's the job now.

So today was my first day on a stimulant (diagnosed as an adult), and everyone says its suppose to feel like *boom* magic, or normal (?) , I guess.

But I mean, somedays I do that...I just don't want to psyche myself out if I'm expecting too much. Or pscyhe myself in if I actually might not be experiencing what I should.
