TL;DR

An AI-powered workflow that streamlines talent screening and shift staffing for industrials. It collects candidate applications via Typeform, evaluates them with AI, stores results, notifies managers, and automates scheduling—all in one flow.

Common Pain Points of Staffing

  • Manual screening of high application volumes slows down staffing.

  • Recruiters miss important details in resumes or certifications.

  • Shift allocation is often mismatched to candidate skills and availability.

  • Managers are overwhelmed by email overload and inconsistent updates.

  • Scheduling interviews or shifts takes too much back-and-forth coordination.

What the Agent Delivers

  • Automated intake of applications from Typeform plus optional resume uploads.

  • AI-driven scoring (1–100), missing qualification checks, and shift-fit suggestions.

  • Centralized record-keeping in Google Sheets.

  • Instant candidate notifications to hiring managers via Gmail or Slack.

  • Auto-scheduling of interviews or shifts in Google Calendar.

  • Recruiter-facing summary with candidate details, AI results, and recommended next steps.
