The cookbook contains practical HireData recipes for real recruitment outcomes. Most combine a trigger, conditions, tasks, and templates into a workflow you can adapt to your own apps and process. A few build one piece of content, such as a form that screens its own answers.

How to use a recipe

A recipe explains:
  1. The outcome — what the workflow should achieve
  2. The trigger — which event or schedule starts it
  3. The conditions — which records should continue
  4. The tasks — what HireData does with those records
  5. The test — how to verify the workflow safely
Use the recipe as a starting point. Object names, stages, fields, and available tasks can differ between ATS connections, so choose the equivalent values from your own automation builder.

Before you build

  • Connect the app that provides the source data.
  • Identify a safe test record.
  • Confirm which fields and relationships are available.
  • Decide who owns the outcome when a task requires human follow-up.
  • Check the template gallery for an existing automation you can adapt.
  • Test every external action before activating the workflow.
Recipes that send messages, update records, or call external systems can affect real data. Use test recipients and sandbox endpoints until you have reviewed the complete run.

Available recipes

Find incomplete candidate profiles

Find profiles with missing information and route them to a recruiter, internal team, or candidate-completion workflow.

Post an outcome to your own system

Send a JSON summary to an API endpoint when a HireData event occurs, then reuse the response in later tasks.

Screen and score applicants

Build a pre-screening form that rejects the applicants who cannot do the job, ranks the rest, and summarises each response.

Build confidently

After creating a recipe:
  1. Test the automation.
  2. Review its event and run.
  3. Confirm the result in the destination app.
  4. Activate it for a limited audience before expanding the conditions.
For reusable starting points, also browse the template gallery from the HireData dashboard.
