Automated Fountain Hiring Funnel Drop-off Alerts

Every morning, WebRun opens Fountain, checks each high volume role's applicant funnel stage by stage, flags any stage where drop-off has jumped compared to the role's usual pattern, posts a Teams alert to the TA team, and creates a Trello card to investigate.

In short

How do I catch drop-off in a Fountain hiring funnel?

WebRun watches your Fountain hiring funnel every morning for high volume roles. It flags any stage where drop-off has jumped against the role's usual pattern, posts a Teams alert to the TA team, and creates a Trello card to investigate, so bottlenecks get caught and fixed while the role is still open.

  • Funnel bottlenecks get flagged the morning they appear, not weeks later
  • The TA team gets a Trello card and an owner automatically
  • Alerts are based on each role's own baseline, not a generic threshold

Questions, answered

Does WebRun change the funnel or contact applicants?

No. It only reads funnel counts and reports unusual drop-off. Changing a stage or contacting an applicant always stays a manual step for the TA team.

How is a baseline set?

It's the role's own recent drop-off pattern at each stage in Fountain, so the alert flags a real shift, not normal week to week noise.

What happens once a bottleneck is fixed?

Once the drop-off rate returns to the role's normal range, the next morning's check stops flagging that stage.

Put this on autopilot.
