HR & RECRUITING
Screen inbound job applications from Gmail into a Notion pipeline
Watches a Gmail hiring inbox for new applications, uses AI to parse the resume and rank fit against the role.
How it runs
The automated pipeline, trigger to output.

- ActionExtract resume attachment and email bodyGmail
- ActionParse resume and score role fit with AIOpenAI
- LogicKeep only candidates above score threshold
- OutputCreate candidate row in Notion pipelineNotion
What it does
Turns a messy hiring inbox into a structured candidate pipeline. Every new application email is parsed, scored for role fit, and written to Notion as a ready-to-review record — no manual copy-pasting from PDFs.
When to use it
Use it when applicants email resumes directly (careers@ or a forwarded job board alias) and your recruiter is drowning in attachments. Best for small teams hiring against one or two open roles who manage candidates in Notion rather than a full ATS.
How it works
- 1A new email arriving in the watched Gmail label triggers the run.
- 2The flow extracts the resume attachment and email body text.
- 3OpenAI parses contact details, work history, and skills, then scores fit against the role's must-have criteria, returning a 1-100 score and a two-line summary.
- 4A filter checks the score is above the minimum threshold and that a resume was actually attached.
- 5Qualifying candidates are created as a new row in the Notion candidates database with score, summary, and stage set to "New".
