Do you Make?
Yes! One thing that we find particularly useful is setting up scenarios for job applications.
-
First, we collect the applicant data with Paperform and use Calculations to filter out text errors (like incorrect email addresses, multiple submissions, etc.).
-
Then we trigger a few automations in Make: first, the data is sent to Google Sheets and neatly organized, then it’s sent to one of our project management tools (Airtable, Asana, JIRA) which differs based on the team.
-
Finally, a message is sent in Slack with a summary of the details and links to the resumes/LinkedIn profile etc.
-
We can then trigger automated emails to update the applicant on the status of their application.
With Make and Paperform, the entire process is automated from resume submission to booking in the first interview call.
