Index hiring knowledge with LlamaIndex

Turn your job postings and candidate lists into a searchable index. By calling `list_jobs` and `list_applicants`, the agent ingests data into your vector store. You can then ask questions about your pipeline in plain English. The agent retrieves the relevant records from the server to ground its answers.

Ground AI answers in Flatwork ATS data

Stop guessing about candidate status and let the agent query `get_applicant` directly. It pulls the latest facts from your ATS to answer recruiter questions. Since the data comes from live API calls, you avoid the hallucinations common with static models. Every answer is backed by the current state of your hiring records.

Search historical hiring trends

Maintain a persistent index of your past `list_applications` results to identify bottlenecks. You can query your knowledge base to see how long candidates stay in specific stages. This turns your ATS into a queryable database for your AI agent. You get insights based on your own data, not general hiring advice.
