Hiring · Easy
Tell the hiring team about new candidates
Applicants left waiting for days often take another offer. Posting new candidates where the hiring team talks speeds up first reviews.
Software used
What happens
When
A new candidate applies to a job in Workable.
Then
- A message is posted to the hiring team's Slack channel.
- The team opens the profile from the message.
How the tools connect
With a built-in integration. Workable lists Slack as an integration on its website.
Set it up
Connect Slack in Workable's integrations.
Choose which jobs and events post to which channel.
Agree how quickly new candidates should get a first look.
Menus change, so these steps say what to do rather than where to click. Each company's help pages have the current screens.
Watch out for
- Candidate details are personal data. Use a private channel for the hiring team only.

Turn chat requests into tracked tasks
Requests made in chat get lost once the conversation scrolls away. Creating a task from the message keeps a link to it, with an owner and a due date.

Tell the team the moment your site goes down
Finding out about downtime from customers is the worst way. An alert in the channel the team already watches gets someone looking within minutes.
Sales · Some setup · Automation tool
Send website leads to the CRM and alert sales
A lead who fills in a contact form expects a fast reply. Adding them to the CRM and telling sales at once makes a same-day reply the norm.
