Guide To Interview Automation

Automation saves time, money, and resources. Here’s how a Philadelphia-based staffing and recruitment technology company does it — and so can you.

First

You will need accounts with Google Apps for Business and YouCanBook.Me.

Google Apps For Business

YouCanBook.Me

*Second

Create a Google Form within Google Drive where applicants can complete a precise questionnaire and embed the code from the Google Form on your careers page.

Google Forms

*Caution — This step requires some human labor.

Third

Make sure that your YouCanBook.Me account is set up based on your availability and custom preferences.

Fourth

Add a custom message at the end of your Google Form that requests applicants to book a time with you.

Here’s an example: http://bit.ly/1bmDeeO (Feel free to submit a test application for a free run at it)

Fifth

Applicants will be ready on your calendar to interview with their contact details, position, and anything else you prefer + you can receive automated emails reminding you of the call. It’s fantastic!

Some other cool automation tools that are definitely worth checking out for further integration are Zapier (used by IT Pros) and IFTTT (used by me).

My company integrates Google Apps For Business, Asana, SmartRecruiters, YouCanBook.Me, and Zapier for improved process automation.
