Megan is fully integrated into your Mega account, making her your go-to AI assistant whenever you need her. Here’s where you can find her and how to make the most of her superpowers! 🦸♀️✨
Where to Find Megan
Right Side Panel (always visible)
On every page in Mega, you’ll see Megan anchored on the right. Use this space to:
Review past conversations
Start a new thread
Ask her anything, no switching tabs required
Tip: Keep conversations organized by “topic.” For example, one thread per role (“Finance Manager Sourcing”) or per project (“Fall Campus Hiring”).
Talking to Megan: Chat or Speak!
You can type out your request or even talk to Megan like you would with a coworker!
How to use voice commands:
When you open the chat window, you’ll see a speaker icon next to the reply button. Click it to enable your mic and chat with Megan hands-free.
To start a conversation with Megan, simply say "Hey Megan."
Working with Megan on a Candidate
Want Megan to help with a specific candidate? You got it! Go to the candidate’s activity section (where all notes & actions live).
Click “+ Add Comment” to open a text window.
Use the @-mention followed to find Megan and start your request, and she’ll jump into action!
Pro Tip: Use this to ask Megan for insights, notes, or even quick summaries of a candidate’s history!
Talk to Megan from anywhere (she understands context)
Megan is “page-smart.” Whether you’re on:
Home: Ask about jobs or pipelines overall.
A Job: Ask about that job’s candidates, screening rules, or next steps.
A Candidate: Ask for an assessment, suggested questions, scheduling help, or follow-ups.
You don’t need to over-explain. Megan uses the page you’re on as context. Of course, you can still be explicit in your prompt if you prefer.
Examples
From Home: “Show me candidates with legal experience across all open roles.”
From a Job: “Find our top 10 internal prospects for this Finance Manager role and draft outreach.”
What Megan can help with (quick ideas)
Shortlisting and insights: “Who already in our database looks strong for this role?”
Follow-ups & clarifications: “Ask Kelly if they’ve led a team of 5+ engineers and confirm their Python depth.”
Interview readiness: “Draft a structured interview question set mapped to must-have competencies.”
Notes for the team: “Add a concise fit summary that others can review before the panel.”
Careful of “In-Flight” changes
Megan handles multi-step, complex requests, but she just works best when you put everything upfront.
Mid-stream add-ons (“oh, also CC me”) can slow things down or get missed while she’s already executing.
She’ll pause to confirm details, ask for more info, or tell you when she’s ready for the next step. If you forget something, either wait for her to finish or start a new conversation with the updated request.
Examples
Not ideal: “Reach out to the top 10 people.” (while in progress) “Also, CC me.”
Better: “Reach out to the top 10 candidates for [Job Title]. Draft in my voice, CC me, use my signature, and pause for my approval before sending.”
Not ideal: “Schedule interviews with the panel.” (while in progress) “Make them 30 minutes and record on Zoom.”
Better: “Schedule 30-minute panel interviews this week, record on Zoom, include my Zoom link, and send me a daily summary.”
Not ideal: “Screen resumes.” (while in progress) “use the below guidance.”
Better: “Screen resumes with the below guidance, note silver medalists, and share a shortlist with reasons by.”
Visibility into Megan’s work
Megan keeps you in the loop as she works:
She updates the conversation thread with what she did and why.
You’ll see tasks and progress as she completes multi-step work (e.g., sourcing, outreach, scheduling).
Pro tips
Be specific about outcomes. Instead of “help with this candidate,” try “compare this candidate to the Finance Manager requirements; recommend advance/decline with rationale.”
Use threads intentionally. One thread per role or initiative makes it easy to track decisions later.
Leverage
@Meganfor shared context. Comments in a candidate’s Activity are visible to your team, which is perfect for interview prep, decision notes, and follow-ups.
Permissions & data (at a glance)
Megan’s access mirrors what you’ve granted her in your ATS (e.g., Greenhouse, Breezy, Ashby, Lever) and job assignments in Mega. If she’s removed from a job, her access, and the synchronized data for that job, goes away until she’s re-added. This keeps control in your hands and ensures Megan only works where she’s invited.
Sample prompts you can copy/paste
Home (portfolio view):
“List roles where applicants are piling up in the Applied stage and suggest the next step to clear the queue.”Job (specific role):
“Evaluate applicants for Senior Engineer and move 5 to shortlist with rationale and open questions.”Candidate (single person):
“Draft 5 targeted questions to test their experience with event-driven architectures and note what ‘good’ looks like for each.”
