Screen inbound job applications from a Gmail jobs inbox
Your jobs inbox fills up with applications nobody has time to read. An Orkeste agent reads each application email, summarises it against the criteria of the role and posts the summaries to your hiring channel, so the hiring manager decides faster. It never rejects a candidate.
The problem
A role gets eighty applications in a week. Reading each one takes days, and good candidates accept other offers while they wait.
How the workflow runs
Runs: Every hour or every day.
Read new applications: The agent reads new emails in the jobs inbox, in Gmail or Outlook.
Match the role: It works out which open role each application is for.
Summarise: It writes a short summary against the criteria in its briefing: experience, location, availability.
Log: It can add each application to an Airtable table.
Share: It posts the summaries to the hiring channel in Slack.
The hiring manager decides: A person decides who to invite. The agent does not shortlist, reject or reply.
The agent summarises; shortlisting, rejecting and contacting candidates stay with people.
Who does what
Application reader: Summarises each application against the role.
Hiring manager (human): Makes every decision about candidates.
What this workflow does not do
Reads the text of the email, not attached CVs or portfolios.
Does not reject, rank out or reply to candidates on its own.
