Screen WPForms job applications and post the best ones to Slack

By General Input

When a candidate applies through your WPForms careers form, an agent reads their resume, scores them against the role, and only pings hiring when it's a yes or maybe.

Build me an agent workflow that screens job applications submitted through my WPForms careers form before a human looks at them.

Trigger: WPForms Subscribe to Form Entries. The trigger fires whenever a new entry is submitted to my careers application form. The agent should receive the structured fields from the submission, including any long-form fields that hold resume text or a cover letter.

For each new submission, the agent should: (1) read the candidate's answers along with the resume text and cover letter; (2) compare their experience and skills against the job description I include below; (3) produce a recommendation of strong yes, maybe, or pass; and (4) write two or three short bullet points of evidence pulled from what the candidate actually wrote.

Then, for every applicant, use Notion Create a Page to add a new entry to my hiring database. The page properties should include: candidate name, email, role applied for, recommendation (strong yes / maybe / pass), a one-paragraph summary, the supporting bullets, status set to "new", and a link back to the original WPForms entry. Ask me for the Notion database id (or database title) during setup.

Then, only if the recommendation is strong yes or maybe, use Slack Send a Message to post a short card to my hiring channel with the candidate's name, the role, the recommendation, the supporting bullets, and a link to the Notion page that was just created. If the recommendation is pass, do not post to Slack so the channel stays quiet. Ask me which Slack channel to post into during setup.

Paste the job description here so the agent has something to score against:

[Paste the role title, must-have skills, nice-to-have skills, and seniority expectations for the position you are hiring for. The agent will use this as the rubric for every candidate.]

Keep the agent's reasoning grounded in what the candidate actually submitted. Do not invent experience that is not in the application. If a required field is missing, flag it in the Notion summary instead of guessing.
