How do I create a hiring request and launch a pipeline?

Question

Accepted Answer

From your HiringPartner dashboard, click **New Hiring Request**. The setup flows through three steps:

**Step 1 — Job Basics:**
- Job title and location (required)
- Job description — paste it in or upload a JD file and the AI will auto-populate the fields
- Experience level required
- Hiring count (how many candidates you intend to hire)
- Optional: salary range, AI calling instructions

**Step 2 — Requirements:**
- Must-have skills (eliminates candidates who don't meet these)
- Nice-to-have skills (boosts candidates who have these)
- If you uploaded a JD file, the AI can extract these automatically

**Step 3 — Upload Resumes:**
- Direct upload: PDF, DOCX, DOC, TXT, or a ZIP archive (up to 100 files per batch)
- Or connect an ATS to import candidates directly

Once submitted, the AI begins screening immediately. You will receive notifications as candidates progress through each stage.
