Automated CareerBuilder Screening Scheduling

Every morning, WebRun signs in to CareerBuilder, reads applications received since the last run, checks each against the must-have criteria for the role, holds a screening slot in Google Calendar for every shortlisted candidate, and leaves a WhatsApp invite drafted and unsent so a recruiter approves the wording before anything reaches the candidate.

In short

How do I schedule screening calls with new job applicants faster?

WebRun prepares your CareerBuilder screening calls every morning. It reads new applications, checks them against the must-have criteria for the role, holds a tentative slot in Google Calendar for each shortlisted candidate, and drafts a WhatsApp invite that a recruiter approves before it is sent.

  • Strong applicants get a screening slot the same day they apply
  • Recruiters approve invites instead of writing them from scratch
  • No candidate is contacted without a human pressing send

Good to know

Questions, answered

Will it message candidates without me?

No. Every WhatsApp invite is left as an unsent draft in the recruiter's chat. A human reads it and presses send, so no candidate ever hears from an unattended run.

Does it reject anyone automatically?

No. Applicants who miss a must-have are set aside for a human second look, never declined. WebRun does not change an application status or send a rejection.

What if the recruiter's calendar fills up?

WebRun only holds slots in windows that are genuinely free and keeps the hold tentative. Any hold still unconfirmed after 48 hours is released so the diary does not clog up.

Put this on autopilot.
