Source and screen candidates and reply over WhatsApp
Recruiters run OpenClaw to monitor GitHub for new contributors overnight, score resume folders against a job description, and draft WhatsApp replies held for human approval.
Done withOpenClaw
- What they did
- OpenClaw runs on a dedicated machine such as a Mac Mini. A 6 AM scheduled task uses the browser skill to visit chosen GitHub repos, pull contributors, filter for recent activity and send a Telegram digest. For screening, the recruiter drops PDF resumes and a JD into the workspace, and the agent returns a ranked CSV with rationales. For replies, it drafts a response and sends it to the recruiter on WhatsApp, and sends it only after the recruiter says yes.
- How it went
- The guide says API costs run roughly $10 to $30 a month for light use and $100 to $200 for heavy use. It gives no measured sourcing results. LinkedIn scraping is fragile, and a clean first workflow takes most of a day.
- Worth knowing
- Sandboxing, approval prompts and workspace limits ship with 2.0 but are off by default, so turn them on before pointing the agent at candidate data.
