Why this helps
Hiring is chaotic enough. Resumes get shared across email, Slack, and Linear comments, and manually typing candidate info into Affinda means you lose details and waste mental energy context-switching between tools.
- Organize all candidate profiles in one searchable place
- Extract skills, experience, and certifications automatically
- Spot qualified candidates faster without manual review
- Reduce time-to-hire by half
- Standardize candidate data across hiring rounds
- Never lose a strong resume again
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Ensure Linear and Affinda are connected to Notis.
- 2Create an automation: 'When a comment includes a resume attachment, automatically create a document in Affinda and extract candidate name, skills, experience, and contact info.'
- 3Set the trigger to 'Comment Received'.
- 4Choose your notification channel for when new candidates are processed.
- 5Test by having a team member share a sample resume in a Linear comment.
Questions about this workflow
Does this work with all resume formats?
Affinda handles PDFs, DOCX, and images (JPG, PNG). Older resumes with unusual formatting may need minor manual cleanup in Affinda, but the extraction is automatic.
Can I extract only specific fields?
Yes. Tell Notis exactly what you need: 'Extract only name, email, phone, current title, and key skills' to skip irrelevant details.
What if a resume is shared in a different way?
This automation triggers on Linear comments. For resumes attached directly to issues, set up a separate Issue Created workflow.
Can I review extracted data before it goes to Affinda?
Notis creates the document immediately, but you can review and correct fields in Affinda afterward. We can also add a review step if you prefer.
