Frequently Asked Questions

What can I automate in Prepzo?

You can automate stage movements (e.g., advance candidates above a score threshold), email sending (interview invites, rejections), team notifications (Slack/email alerts), and task creation. Automations run based on triggers you define.

What triggers are available?

Triggers include: candidate applies, AI score calculated, candidate enters/exits a stage, interview completed, candidate idle for X days, and more. Each trigger can have conditions to control when the automation fires.

What actions can automations perform?

Actions include: move candidate to a stage, send email (from templates), send internal notification, add a tag, create a task, and trigger a webhook. You can chain multiple actions in a single automation.

How do I set up an automation?

Go to Settings > Automations, click 'Create Automation', select a trigger, add conditions (optional), and configure actions. For example: Trigger: AI score calculated, Condition: Score > 80, Action: Move to Phone Screen + Send interview invite email.

Can I have different automations per job?

Yes. Automations can be scoped to specific jobs or applied company-wide. Job-specific automations override company defaults when both exist.

How do I send automatic rejection emails?

Create an automation with trigger 'AI score calculated', condition 'Score < 50', and action 'Send email' using your rejection template. Candidates below your threshold receive a respectful rejection automatically.

Can automations send notifications to Slack?

Yes. Connect your Slack workspace in Settings > Integrations, then use the 'Send notification' action to post messages to channels when automations fire.

How do I prevent automation loops?

Prepzo prevents infinite loops by not re-triggering automations when their own actions would cause the same trigger. Each automation runs once per triggering event.
