## Description

Imagine you're in the middle of a busy hiring week. Instead of constantly switching between your email, your spreadsheet, and the HRBlade dashboard, you can just tell your AI agent what needs to happen next. You can ask it to build out a new technical screen template with specific time limits for each question, then have it send those out to a batch of candidates immediately. When responses start rolling in, you don't have to hunt for them; you can just ask the agent to show you the latest video submissions. This Connector puts your entire recruitment workflow inside your chat interface. Whether you're screening dozens of applicants or just checking on a few high-priority leads, it makes the process feel like a conversation rather than a data entry job. It's one of the many ways Vinkius helps bridge the gap between your favorite AI tools and the actual work you need to get done.

**Is HRBlade MCP good for high-volume screening?**
It is ideal for high-volume screening because it allows you to batch tasks like sending invitations and reviewing responses much faster than manual entry.

**Can I create an interview template and send invitations to candidates?**
Yes. Use `create_interview` with a JSON payload containing the title, description, and an array of questions. Then use `send_interview_invitation` with the candidate's email, first name, last name, and the interview ID. The candidate will receive an email with a link to record their video responses.

**Can I review all video responses submitted by candidates?**
Yes. The `list_interview_responses` tool retrieves all submitted video responses with candidate details, interview template reference, and submission timestamps. Use `get_candidate_details` to inspect a specific candidate's full profile and response history.

**How does asynchronous video interviewing work with HRBlade?**
HRBlade enables one-way video interviews where candidates record responses at their own pace. You create a template with questions, send an invitation, and the candidate records video answers through a web link. You can then review all responses asynchronously without scheduling live calls. Use `list_interviews` to see all templates and `list_candidates` to track your pipeline.
