This article introduces Hiring Agent, HrFlow.ai’s AI-powered application, and explains how to set it up for your recruitment workflows.

HrFlow.ai apps perform specific recruitment and talent management tasks. They are designed to work seamlessly together across the HrFlow.ai platform, helping teams automate workflows, improve efficiency, and support better decision-making.

In this article, we’ll walk you through the main configuration steps and show you how to set up Hiring Agent for your organisation.

HrFlow.ai’s Hiring Agent helps recruitment teams optimise candidate pre-selection across existing talent pools, including ATSs, CRMs, talent databases, and new applications, based on a job description or custom search criteria.

Hiring Agent can reach 94% accuracy in identifying candidates with a high likelihood of succeeding in the role, helping recruiters focus their attention on the most relevant profiles.

​

The setup process follows the steps outlined below.

1. Login in to your HrFlow.ai account using: https://hrflow.ai/signup/.
​

2. Once you enter the home page, navigate to the App Studio.

3. Click on "Hiring Agent".

4. You can proceed by clicking the "create ai app" button.

5. Name your app and select your source for profiles (candidates), which in most cases will be your ATS and/or CRM, but not limited to these.

6. You also need to select the board where your job descriptions are stored, as well as a board which collects all searches (job requirements) prompted by your users. This is usually connected to your ATS, but not limited to it.

7. Then, select the algorithm “my scoring algorithm for recruiters”, and next choose the grading algorithm “grader-hrflow-profiles”.

8. Here, you can choose the preferred language and select the level of authentication required from your users.

9. You can add an external profile link to let users open candidate profiles directly from Hiring Agent. This link can redirect to the corresponding profile in your ATS, CRM, or CV database.

10. You can then configure the filters recruiters will use to narrow down the talent pool. Start with the default filters provided by HrFlow, such as Location. "Tracking Status" allows filtering candidates by status (e.g. applied, viewed, interviewed)

11. Create custom filters to give recruiters more ways to refine the talent pool (e.g. education, seniority, etc). These filters can be tailored to the data available in your candidate profiles and the specific needs of your sourcing.

12. Use raw filters for standalone candidate attributes such as salary expectations, availability, etc. For each filter, define the data type, filtering method, unit, and default value.

13. Now you’re ready to launch your agent. Just copy and paste the link into your browser, or click Preview to open it in a new tab.
