How AI enhances your new hire request workflow
AI transforms the hiring request process by eliminating manual tasks and ensuring job descriptions are clear, structured, and aligned with company standards. By leveraging AI to generate job descriptions instantly, hiring managers can focus on selecting the best candidates rather than spending time drafting descriptions from scratch. Automated notifications and approval tracking ensure every step is completed efficiently, keeping everyone informed and reducing delays.
How it works:
Request submission: A manager submits a hiring request using a structured form, including job title, key requirements, and any additional information.
Approval process: The request is sent to a senior manager for approval.
AI-generated job description: If approved, AI generates a professional job description based on the submitted details.
HR notification: The final job description is automatically emailed to HR for posting on job boards.
Rejection process: If the request is declined, the requester receives an automated email with the reason for rejection.

Frequently asked questions
How does a new hire request process work?
A manager submits a hiring request form with the job title, key requirements and any other details, and a senior manager approves or declines it. In the 50skills template, approval triggers AI to write a job description, which is emailed to HR for posting on job boards. If the request is declined, the requester gets an automatic email with the reason.
How does AI write the job description in this workflow?
The AI step runs only after a senior manager approves the request. It takes the job title, key requirements and extra details from the manager's form and drafts a professional job description in a consistent, structured format, which is then emailed to HR. Administrators can see the prompt, input and output of every AI step, and AI can be switched off.
Can I edit the AI prompt?
Yes, you have full control over the AI prompt. You can customise it as many times as needed to align with your hiring criteria, company tone, and specific job requirements. Adjusting the prompt ensures that AI-generated job descriptions reflect your organisation's standards and attract the right candidates.
Can we add a budget or DEI review before the job description is written?
Yes. The template suggests an extra review step if a role needs budget approval or is linked to DEI hiring goals. Place it after the senior manager's approval so the AI only drafts the job description once every sign-off is in. Declined requests at any stage can still trigger an automatic email to the requester explaining why.
Can the approved job description go straight into our ATS?
Yes, with an added integration step. As shipped, the template emails the approved description to HR for posting. 50skills can connect to ATS platforms such as Greenhouse, Lever, Teamtailor and Workable, and its Integration Studio links any system with an API, so the request details and job description can be passed on automatically.
