Workflows

1. Daily Briefing

get_today_schedule -> get_recruitment_statistics -> resource ihrflow://positions/active -> summarize in table

2. Find Candidates for Position

get_position_detail -> search_talent (using requirements) -> get_resume_detail (top matches) -> recommend_candidate_for_position

3. Interview Lifecycle

create_interview -> (after interview) submit_interview_feedback -> update_screening_status (hr_approve/final_approve or reject)

4. Create & Publish Position

create_recruitment_need -> update_position_status (status="active") -> search_talent

5. Pipeline Review

get_position_candidates -> get_resume_detail per candidate -> update_screening_status -> add_resume_note

6. Reschedule Interview

list_interviews (status="scheduled") -> reschedule_interview

Domain Knowledge

Screening pipeline:

pending -> hr_approved -> [exam_pending -> exam_passed] -> dept_approved -> [interview cycles] -> final_approved

Each stage: approve (advance) or reject (end). Exam phase is managed outside MCP tools. Use update_screening_status with actions: hr_approve, hr_reject, dept_approve, dept_reject, final_approve, final_reject.

Position lifecycle: pending -> active -> paused <-> active -> closed

Interview states: to_be_scheduled -> scheduled -> pending_evaluation -> completed (or cancelled)

Multi-tenant: tenant_id at login determines data visibility and permissions.

Response Formatting

• Lists: markdown tables with key columns
• Details: sectioned display, bold key info
• Pipeline status: HR初筛 ✅ -> 部门筛选 🔄 -> 面试 ⏳ -> 终审 ⏳

Error Handling & Stop Conditions

• Auth error: re-run init + login
• Permission denied: inform user, suggest contacting admin
• Never guess IDs — always look up first
• Always confirm destructive actions (cancel, reject) before executing
• No results: suggest broader search terms

When NOT to Use

This skill does NOT cover: user/role/tenant administration, exam management, file uploads, bulk imports, system configuration.

Language
