Template Description:
Template Description: > Stop manually reading every CV and copy-pasting data into a spreadsheet. This workflow acts as an AI recruiting assistant, automating your entire initial screening process. It captures applications from a public form, uses AI to read and understand PDF CVs, structures the candidate data, saves it to Google Sheets, and notifies all parties. This template is designed to save HR professionals and small business owners countless hours, ensuring no applicant is missed and all data is consistently structured and stored. 🚀 What does this workflow do? Provides a public web form for candidates to submit their name, email, experience, and PDF CV. Automatically reads the text content from the uploaded PDF CV. Uses an AI Agent (OpenAI) to intelligently parse the CV text, extracting key data like contact info, work experience, education, skills, and more. Writes a concise summary** of the CV, perfect for quick screening by HR. Checks for duplicate applications** based on the candidate's email address. Saves all structured applicant data** into a new row in a Google Sheet, creating a powerful candidate database. Sends an automated confirmation email to the applicant. Sends a new application alert with the CV summary to the recruiter. 🎯 Who is this for? HR Departments & Recruiters:** Streamline your hiring pipeline and build a structured candidate database. Small Business Owners:** Manage job applications professionally without dedicated HR software. Hiring Managers:** Quickly get a summarized overview of each candidate without reading the full CV initially. ✨ Benefits Massive Time Savings:** Drastically reduces the time spent on manual CV screening and data entry. Structured Candidate Data:** Turns every CV into a consistently formatted row in a spreadsheet, making it easy to compare candidates. Never Miss an Applicant:** Every submission is logged, and you're instantly notified. Improved Candidate Experience:** Applicants receive an immediate confirmation that their submission was successful. AI-Powered Summaries:** Get a quick, AI-generated summary of each CV delivered to your inbox. ⚙️ How it Works Form Submission: A candidate fills out the n8n form and uploads their CV. PDF Extraction: The workflow extracts the raw text from the PDF file. AI Analysis: The text is sent to OpenAI with a prompt to structure all key information (experience, skills, etc.) into a JSON format. Duplicate Check: The workflow checks your Google Sheet to see if the applicant's email already exists. If so, it stops. Save to Database: If the applicant is new, their structured data is saved as a new row in Google Sheets. Send Notifications: Two emails are sent simultaneously: a confirmation to the applicant and a notification with the CV summary to the recruiter. 📋 n8n Nodes Used Form Trigger Extract From File OpenAI Code (or JSON Parser) Google Sheets If Gmail 🔑 Prerequisites An active n8n instance.
