Develop a bot that automates the screening of resumes and inputs candidate details into a Microsoft Form, streamlining the recruitment process for HR teams.
HR teams often manually review a high volume of resumes to identify qualified candidates. This repetitive and time-consuming task is prone to errors, leading to potential oversight of suitable candidates. Automating the initial screening phase can significantly reduce time spent, improve accuracy, and provide an audit trail for future reference.
