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
