What it does

The task

Open the job job in Ashby and read the applicants who applied since the last run. Check each resume and the application answers against these must-haves: must haves. Use only job-related facts, and ignore the name, age, gender, photo, nationality and other personal traits. For each applicant, write met, not met or unclear for each must-have, with a short quote as evidence. Send me a table, the applicants who meet all must-haves first. Do not move, reject or contact any candidate.

  • It works in Ashby, in the workspace you pick, and signs in with passwords from your Cuiar vault.
  • As a routine it runs every weekday at 8:00 (cron 0 8 * * 1-5).
