Grok Bot for recruiting ops
A Grok Bot playbook for recruiting ops: which Bots to create, the routines that work, what to put behind approval, and what we refuse to build.
Who this is for: Hiring managers and small talent teams.
The Bot team
One Bot per theme, not per task. Each has its own accounts (see own accounts).
Screening Bot — Owns applications: structured summary against the job's must-haves into the ATS, no rejections sent.
Scheduling Bot — Owns interview logistics: proposes slots from calendars, sends confirmations from the recruiting@ address with approval.
Sourcing Notes Bot — Owns research on named candidates and companies, at human pace, into a sheet. No messaging.
Routines
- On application — summary and must-have check
- Daily — candidates waiting > 3 days for a reply: nudge the hiring manager
- On 'schedule' tag — propose slots, draft confirmation
- Weekly — pipeline report per role
What's behind approval
Rejection emails and any outbound to candidates. Also LinkedIn messaging, which is on the no list entirely.
What the win looks like
Hiring managers see every candidate summarised the same way, and nobody waits a week for a scheduling email.
What we won't build here
AI-screening interviews and automated sourcing blasts. Candidates hate it, it's an arms race, and it makes you the company that did it.
Setup and cost
This playbook fits our Setup package at the 3-Bot tier, one week, fixed price. Plan cost is separate: see which plan you need. Every routine ships with a heartbeat line and the spend watcher.
