🛠️ The Playbook — AI Recruiting Radar
Mission Monitor job boards, internal ATS data, and hiring signals (funding rounds, promotions, company expansions) to flag the best-fit prospects for outbound recruiting.
Difficulty Advanced | Build time 90 min
ROI Talent teams save ≈ 12 h/week and surface candidates days before LinkedIn InMails hit.
Step | Action |
|---|---|
1 | Trigger – Weekly Zapier schedule or webhook from ATS. |
2 | Job Boards API – Pull new roles from Indeed, LinkedIn, niche boards. |
3 | Funding/News Feeds – RSS + Crunchbase API to catch company expansion signals. |
4 | Claude 3.5 Sonnet – Prompt: |
5 | Google Sheets – Log |
6 | Slack Digest – Top 10 scored prospects dropped into #recruiting-daily. |
7 | Fail-safe – If no candidates meet score ≥70, trigger enrichment fallback via Clay/ZoomInfo. |
Pro tip: Add “signal-to-outreach lag” as a metric—time between funding announcement and recruiter first-touch. The shorter the lag, the higher the close rate.
