AI Hiring Automation – Full Candidate Lifecycle

A full hiring automation system that moves candidates from application to interview outcome with minimal manual work. It collects applications, runs AI screening, schedules interviews via Cal.com, conducts AI phone interviews with Vapi, and delivers pass/fail decisions with structured evaluation data.

AI Phone Interview Sample

Listen to a sample Vapi-powered interview call.

The Problem

Recruiting teams spend weeks coordinating screening, scheduling, interviewing, and follow-up manually. Candidate evaluation is inconsistent, no-shows waste time, and decisions lack standardization.

The Solution

An n8n workflow that automates the entire candidate lifecycle: AI screening scores applicants, approved candidates get a Cal.com booking link, Vapi conducts AI phone interviews at the scheduled time, and a clean decision rule (YES + score ≥ 80 = pass) routes candidates to second-round invitations or polite rejections automatically.
