Automated SEEK Shortlist Handoff

Every morning, WebRun opens SEEK, finds candidates marked as shortlisted since yesterday, blocks a tentative phone screen slot on the hiring manager's Google Calendar for each one, and sends a WhatsApp message handing over today's shortlist for them to confirm and invite.

In short

How do I hand off my SEEK shortlist to the hiring manager quickly?

WebRun checks SEEK every morning for candidates newly marked as shortlisted. It blocks a tentative phone screen slot on the hiring manager's Google Calendar for each one, then sends a WhatsApp message handing over the day's shortlist for the hiring manager to confirm and invite themselves, so nothing external goes out without a human decision.

  • Shortlisted candidates get a calendar hold within the hour
  • Hiring managers get today's shortlist without opening SEEK
  • Nothing is sent to a candidate without human confirmation

Questions, answered

Does it invite the candidate to the interview?

No. WebRun only reserves a tentative slot on the hiring manager's own calendar. The hiring manager confirms it and sends the actual invite to the candidate themselves.

Who receives the WhatsApp message?

Only your hiring manager, internally. WebRun never messages a SEEK candidate directly.

What if a candidate is removed from the shortlist?

WebRun reads live shortlist status each morning, so a candidate taken off the shortlist is skipped on the next run.
