Brief the Hiring Manager on a Candidate

For a recruiter running 6 screens a week who wants every HM call to start warm. One prompt reads the Ashby profile, writes a one-paragraph brief with fit, gaps, and one validating question, and notes it on the candidate.

THE GRIND

HMs skim the resume 2 minutes before the call

Resumes aren't structured like what the HM needs. Recruiter notes are buried. By the time the call starts, the HM is improvising.

HM opens Ashby, scans the top of the resume, nothing else

Same 'fit + gaps' take written 30 times across 30 candidates

No one question the HM should probe — so they wing it

Composio collapses all of this into one prompt — here's what that looks like.

THE PAYOFF

Every HM call starts warm

The HM opens Ashby to a brief — fit, gaps, one question. Screens are sharper, candidates get better evaluated, and the feedback loop to the recruiter speeds up.

Paste this into Claude, Cursor, or Codex. It'll install the CLI, connect your apps, and run the task — end to end.
