Automated Candidate Screening and Notification Workflow

This n8n workflow automates the entire hiring process, from candidate application to HR notification, by integrating form submissions, resume processing, AI analysis, and database management. It starts with a web form where candidates submit their details and resumes. The workflow then extracts text from the uploaded PDFs, uploads resumes to Google Drive with proper permissions, and searches for matching job postings in Airtable. Using OpenAI’s GPT-4 model, the workflow evaluates candidate suitability by comparing skills, cover letter content, and resume data against job descriptions. Based on AI-generated screening results, it creates candidate records in Airtable, stores resumes securely, and checks if the candidate is suitable. If so, an automated email alert is sent to HR for further steps. This workflow streamlines recruitment, speeds up candidate evaluation, and ensures a consistent, data-driven hiring process, making it ideal for HR teams looking to optimize candidate screening and improve hiring efficiency.
