About This Automation
Sending personalized rejection emails to candidates is time-consuming when done manually. Recruiters spend nearly per rejection writing, copying contact details, and logging outcomes across multiple systems.
Automation generates personalized rejection emails with constructive feedback in seconds, logs the send automatically, and notifies the team. Candidates receive consistent, empathetic messages the same day they are rejected.

How The Automation Works
The full workflow, from trigger to completion.
Workflow triggers when a candidate record status changes to rejected. The automation reads the candidate name, email, role, and interview feedback.
The automation reads the interview feedback and candidate details, then generates a personalized rejection email with constructive feedback. The message is warm, professional, and includes specific reasons for the decision.
The generated rejection email is sent automatically to the candidate's email address integration, with the recruiter as the sender.
A new row is added to a Google Sheet with the candidate name, email, date sent, and feedback summary for audit and compliance tracking.
A message is posted to the hiring team channel confirming the rejection email was sent and the candidate record is closed.
