Screen Candidates

To install the Create Submission function; 

Consider Zylker Corp, a company that receives a high volume of applications for various job openings. Manually screening each candidate to determine their suitability and prioritize follow-ups can be time-consuming and prone to errors.

This function automates the screening process by evaluating candidates based on predefined criteria such as phone number, email address, job title, skill set, and industry details.

Generate Formatted Resume

The Formatted Resume Generator is a gallery function designed to automate the generation of formatted resumes. It can be configured as a post-action within workflows and blueprints, enabling seamless resume generation as part of an automated process.

How it works

Consider Zylker Corp, a company that needs to send consistent, professional-looking resumes to clients. Manually formatting resumes for each candidate can be tedious and time-consuming. To streamline this, Zoho Recruit offers the Generate Formatted Resume custom function. Once installed from the Gallery, the function can be renamed and used with different resume templates, generating resumes automatically whenever a workflow or blueprint action is triggered.

To use this function:
  1. Navigate to Setup > Functions (under Developer Space) > Gallery and install the Generate Formatted Resume custom function.
  2. Go to Functions, rename the function based on the template you're using.
  3. Copy the Template ID from Settings > Formatted Resume and map it in the function parameters.
  4. Edit the custom function to create a connection, and use the connection name as the invokeUrl parameter within the function logic.

Note:

  1. Generating formatted resumes using an Advanced Template consumes credits for each resume generated. Upon your credits are exhausted, resume generation will be paused until more credits are purchased.
  2. If an error occurs during resume generation, you can track it by navigating to:
    Settings → Automations → Actions → Functions
