This workflow automates interview scheduling. It uses an AI chatbot to interact with candidates, checks calendar availability, and books 30-minute interview slots during business hours (9 AM - 5 PM EST) on weekdays. The AI confirms details before booking and avoids double-booking.
1. Set up OpenAI and Google Calendar credentials in n8n. 2. Replace placeholder emails with your Google Calendar email. 3. Update credential names for Google Calendar and OpenAI. 4. Copy the webhook URL from the "Candidate Chat" node and share it.
You need an OpenAI account with API access to GPT-4o, a Google account with Google Calendar access, and OAuth2 credentials configured for both in n8n.
You can customize the Google Calendar email, credential names, the AI chatbot's system message (tone, questions, rules) in the "Interview Scheduler" node, and the chatbot's branding and final response to the user.
