AI Workflows for the Recruitment Desk

AI Workflows for the Recruitment Desk

(with NOMAD AI/Ben Barrett)

CONTENT

Build working, reusable workflows using your desk’s own CVs, specs, clients and data.

Two demos, one Live build, every week.

WHAT’S COVERED

Week 1. Workflow foundations + Safe & Compliant AI

• – Quick portal tour and what a workflow is: role, inputs, steps, outputs and checks.

• – Why workflows outlast prompts and create consistent results.

• – Live build: turn a client call note into a structured job brief.

• – EU AI Act in practice: recruitment AI as high-risk and defining the AI assist vs human decision line.

• – Candidate data, anonymisation, and transparency with candidates and clients.

• – Start a one-page compliance note to build on throughout the programme.

• – 2nd live build: convert a regret email into an automated candidate-care sequence.

• – Homework: Create a workflow map, identify the two biggest time-consuming tasks, and submit one anonymised example of each to shape weeks 2–4.

Sessions 2 – 4:

20 minutes on what broke, 2 pre-built demos run on own material, then 50 minutes guided ‘build’ session where attendees assemble their own version, on their own files.

Week 2. The Candidate Side – your magic buttons

• – Demo: CV importer — convert messy PDFs or LinkedIn exports into your house CV template.

• – Demo: process CVs in batches and turn job specs into channel search strings and talent-pool maps.

• – Live build: create your own CV importer using your firm’s template.

• – Homework: Run 20 real CVs through the workflow and track the time saved.

Week 3. The Client Side – BD, outreach + comms at scale

• – Demo: BD signal scan → account brief → personalised outreach sequence using real client examples from the group.

• – Demo: spec-to-pitch workflow → turn a filled role into a candidate-availability mailer that generates client responses.

• – Live build: members create the first workflow from their own workflow map, using a draft prepared between sessions.

• – Homework: Use the workflow on a real assignment and record the responses received.

Week 4. Reporting, then make it permanent

• – Demo: Turn an anonymised ATS/CRM export into a weekly pipeline report and client review one-pager.

• – Live build: bring the previous four weeks together into a configured Claude workspace for each desk.

• – Add custom instructions, compliance guidance, prompt libraries and templates as embedded knowledge.

• – Showcase: each attendee presents one of their workflows to the group in a three-minute demonstration.

• – Measure impact by reviewing time-saved logs and producing a quantified result for ERF and Skillnet reporting.
