Overview

An end-to-end candidate shortlisting workflow built on n8n with an OpenAI scoring step. The walkthrough shows how recruiters can move from raw resume inflow to a reviewable shortlist without handing final decisions to AI — the pattern most HR teams need to stay on the right side of bias and compliance.

What you'll learn

  • An end-to-end n8n flow: resume intake → scoring → shortlist
  • How to structure the AI scoring prompt so results are consistent
  • Bias and compliance checkpoints to add before any automated rejection

Try this next

  • Pull 10 past resumes and run the scoring prompt, then compare to your own ranking
  • Add a "reason for score" field so every AI call produces a reviewable trail
