Hello, community! I recently published an article on how to create alerts and set deadlines in recruitment processes! You can read it directly in our Help Center or check it below: Recruitment processes involve many people, inside and out of the HR team. Approvals, reviews, and follow-ups need to be done constantly, which may become a bottleneck if those involved are not notified or are slow to respond. It is up to the HR team to ensure deadlines are met and interviews are carried out within the agreed time. After all, it’s crucial to establish an agile hiring process to create a positive experience for all involved. We've already explained how to automate resume screening and email communication with candidates within Pipefy. Here, we'll talk about creating deadlines and alerts to ensure your recruiting flow is efficient and fast. Types of alerts Before configuring alerts for a recruiting pipe, it’s important to understand there are three types of alerts, all of which can be triggers
Hello, community! Today I want to share an article about email automation for HR teams, specifically for recruitment processes. You can check the article in our Help Center or read it here: In recruitment processes, communication between candidates and recruiters is critical. From the HR perspective, there’s a high volume of emails sent to candidates (interview scheduling, tests, feedback, etc.); and from the candidate’s side, they’re eager for updates and feedback. Pipefy allows you to automate email communication, freeing up time for other activities, and provides candidates with personalized messages according to each stage of the selection process. Let's check it out! An email for each recruitment phase These screening automations can work together with automated email templates. For example, whenever candidates who meet the job requirements submit their CVs, they are automatically moved to the Qualified phase and receive a personalized message. These are some of the examples of em
Hello, community! Today I want to share specific content to help Human Resources teams improve their recruitment process with Pipefy! You can read the article in our help center or read it here: Recruitment processes involve a lot of analysis, approvals, and interviews; therefore, they can often take a longer time to complete than necessary. Recruiters know that the high volume of CVs in the screening phase can become a bottleneck, along with repetitive and manual tasks. With Pipefy, you can automate the selection of candidates and optimize the screening phase. Just define your selection criteria and set up your automation in minutes! Forms: the best way to receive applications Before automating candidate screening, you need to ensure you receive information correctly. The best way to receive CVs is through public forms. Candidates will fill in information and you will receive applications in the form of cards in Pipefy. It is important to edit the form carefully, because when configur
Over the years, we noticed how difficult it is to develop software with high performance and efficiency and how important the team factor is in this equation. Sometimes we don’t realize that we do not always need the best language, technology, or any advanced or crazy concept to achieve the best results. What we do need, instead, is to maintain the best organizational structure in mind so as to keep things simple. By teaching us how we must prepare ourselves to achieve the best mid and long-term cost-benefit for our team, the Team Topologies concept has helped guide us in our current evolution at Pipefy. When studying Team Topologies we noticed significant similarities while revising all the foundations of software development. This gave us insights into every stage of this process. We could observe that Team Topologies is a different way of thinking about how a company must be organized, as it is not a methodology exclusively aimed at developers and effectively concentrates a wide ran
Increase response rate with Pipefy's automations. Create a faster and more effective qualification process. Find the best sales opportunities right away with Pipefy’s automation. Improve your team's performance, by focusing on what really matters: true potential customers. Go to the automation page, and select “when a field is updated” as an event. Add conditions to specify the qualification criteria, then choose “move card” to Won or Lost stage, according to leads’ characteristics. Why qualifying leads?Qualifying leads is vital to any sales process, because it reduces costs, and helps your commercial team to focus on real potential customers, based on information captured through public forms. Each business may define its own qualification criteria, such as budget, timing, and who is the decision-maker. Fortunately, you don’t have to analyze and qualify your leads one by one. You can increase your response rate and use Pipefy’s automation instead! After importing leads to Pipefy, or
Spreadsheets may be common, but they aren’t the ideal tool to keep track of business opportunities since they can quickly become outdated and are difficult to control. To mitigate these issues, you can import all your leads into a pipe or a database inside Pipefy where they can be effortlessly found, updated, and managed through your sales process. Here is a quick guide: Click on Tools → Apps, and select Importer app. Click on enable to activate it. It will appear in your pipe's header. Click on the Importer app icon to open it up. Then, choose if you want to import your spreadsheet to a pipe or a database. In New Import, drag and drop or select your spreadsheet from your file folder (it must be an .xlsx file). The next step is to combine its columns with the pipe's or database's fields and start importing. Need a detailed tutorial? Get more information below. Prepare your spreadsheet The first step is to make sure your spreadsheet has the same information as your pipe/databas
Interacting with customers is crucial to keep them engaged with your brand and products. It helps to turn high-qualified leads into opportunities and, eventually, new deals. But you don't have to do it manually: use Pipefy's automations to boost your communication with customers and improve your team's performance, by eliminating tedious and repetitive work. Here is a guide on how to do it: Create an email template to nurture leads about your business. Add a new phase to your pipe, and call it Nurturing (if you're using the Lead Qualification Template, skip this step) Set a maximum period of time (SLA) for leads to stay in this new phase. This is will be the number of days until your leads will receive the nurturing email. For example: 3 days. It’ll start counting as soon as you move the card to the Nurturing phase. Create automation: Choose when an alert is triggered as the event, add a condition current phase is equal to nurturing, and select late alert as the alert type
