HR

I built an AI-powered resume screening system using n8n that automatically processes job applications from email to hiring decision in under 60 seconds. The workflow monitors a recruitment inbox via IMAP, validates PDF attachments, extracts and analyzes resume text using OpenRouter’s Claude API against customizable job criteria, then intelligently routes candidates through a three-tier decision system: strong matches receive immediate interview invitations with calendar links, borderline cases trigger manual HR review alerts, and clear mismatches get respectful rejection emails—all while logging structured evaluation data (scores, strengths, concerns) to Airtable for tracking. This eliminates 95% of manual screening time, ensures 100% response rates, and maintains consistent, bias-free evaluation across all applications while preserving human judgment for nuanced cases.
