I use zoom for interviews and run into the same issue using my personal room for back-to-back interviews. My solution is to enable the waiting room feature. This makes it so that people can call in, but need to be admitted to the actual room. This works well for the interviews. The problem is that it's a account wide setting and cannot be disabled for specific meetings. So now the is a problem of I set up the room for a recurring meeting and am out sick and forgot to disable the waiting room.

on our zoom, you can schedule a meeting, and it gets a one-time number
Slack integration. `/zoom meeting foo` — get a fresh meeting ID.
Yes, that would be a potential solution, but using the same room works exceptionally well with how the meetings get scheduled without going into too much detail.
