Could become Find senior Backend Engineers in Bengaluru who know Python, Django, and PostgreSQL, ideally with 5+ years of experience and some startup background. ``` {% endcode %} **Say what outcome you want -** Just tell SIA the decision or output you're after: a shortlist, comparison, summary, recommendation, draft, or action. {% prompt description="Compare candidates" icon="user-group" %} ```markdown Compare the five strongest candidates for [role]. Recommend who should move to AI interview, with a concise rationale for each. ``` {% endprompt %} **Use action words intentionally**

SIA will keep it in your mailbox’s Drafts folder. Sending always requires a final confirmation. {% endhint %} ### **Sourcing Candidates** When you ask to source candidates, SIA may ask whether you mean: 1. **Candidates already in your SIA talent pool -** Search and match against people already screened or added to your pipeline. 2. **Resumes you already have in files, Drive, Sheets, or Notion -** Import and screen candidates from documents you've collected outside SIA. 3. **New people from an external sourcing database -** Find and reveal fresh candidates through providers like [Swarm](https://www.theswarm.com/), [People Data labs](https://www.peopledatalabs.com/) or [Apollo](https://www.apollo.io/), who aren't yet in your pool. Being specific about which route you mean helps SIA return the right results faster {% prompt description="Source candidates external Talent-pool" icon="arrows-down-to-people" %} ```markdown Source senior [role] candidates in [location] with [skills] from external talent pool. ``` {% endprompt %} {% prompt description="Enrich candidate information" icon="arrows-down-to-people" %} ```markdown Which sourced candidates for [role] have verified email addresses?

You can use connectors to: * Draft and send candidate or stakeholder emails * Schedule interviews and create video meetings * Post hiring updates in Slack or Microsoft Teams * Review resumes and candidate trackers from Google Drive and Sheets * Create hiring briefs, scorecards, and review packs in Google Docs * Read and update hiring plans or candidate trackers in Notion * Source external talent through Apollo, People Data Labs, or Swarm * Import jobs and applications from an ATS {% prompt description="View current Connectors" icon="plug" %} ```markdown Which connectors are currently connected? ``` {% endprompt %} {% prompt description="SIA workflow + Google Docs + Slack" icon="plug" %} ```markdown Show the matching criteria for [role], create a Google Doc containing the criteria, weights, and knockout requirements, and prepare a Slack message asking the hiring team to approve or suggest changes ``` {% endprompt %} {% prompt description="SIA + Google Docs + Microsoft Teams" icon="plug" %} ```markdown Show the AI Interview plan for [role], create a Google Doc containing the competencies and questions for panel review, then prepare a Teams message to the interview panel asking them to validate technical depth, seniority fit, and follow-up areas. ``` {% endprompt %} {% prompt description="SIA + Slack/Teams + email" icon="plug" %} ```markdown Prepare a Teams message to [hiring manager] confirming that [candidate name] is ready for final discussion, and draft an email asking the candidate for a suitable time to discuss next steps. ``` {% endprompt %} {% prompt description="SIA + email + calendar or Calendly" icon="plug" %} ```markdown For [candidate name], create a Calendly link for a 30-minute recruiter screen, then draft an email inviting them to select a time. ``` {% endprompt %} There's no real limit to what you can do with SIA Chat - this library will keep growing as we discover new ways recruiters put it to work.
