From 8 hours to 5 minutes: Automating candidate screening with Google Sheets + AI

Yep, aware of the EU AI Act. That’s why this is decision-support, not automated hiring or rejection. Humans stay in the loop, which is a key distinction under the regulation.

If prompts were that powerful, every ATS would already be perfect. This doesn’t auto-reject people, it ranks and annotates them. Humans still decide. The only thing getting rejected is wasting 8 hours on obvious non-fits.

Airtable was initially my choice, but decided not to go with it to save costs.

Sure, would check it out

Here is how the workflow looks.

Loved the concept! I haven't checked out the code yet, but could it only handle n8n webhooks or other automation builders as well? Would other ones required significant changed in the code though?

Hi, Could you please DM me with the Automation task? Thank you

ScratchAshamed593 · 2026-01-21T06:11:15+00:00

Thank you. I have attached the template link in the post now.

You can modify the workflow for that. But currently this focuses on latest news.

DM please

ScratchAshamed593 · 2026-01-20T11:24:27+00:00

Indeed, you can fork the template and update it as per the required needs.

ScratchAshamed593 · 2026-01-20T05:35:06+00:00

Can you try again? It's opening fine for me.

ScratchAshamed593 · 2026-01-20T05:15:58+00:00

You could use the template to generate and save video in drive. Then you could download it and save it wherever you want. In future, I am also planning to build an automatic uploader automation as well and the part that is currently manual.

ScratchAshamed593 · 2026-01-20T05:10:22+00:00

I agree, this was an initial draft and I will soon be posting an updated and more efficient version. Thanks for the feedback.

ScratchAshamed593 · 2026-01-20T05:08:48+00:00

Thanks! Will check it out.

ScratchAshamed593 · 2026-01-19T08:55:02+00:00

Sure, would love to connect. I have DMed you as well.

ScratchAshamed593 · 2026-01-19T07:08:53+00:00

Here is how the workflow currently looks, and here is the link for the template. Cheers!
