• Select the Google Drive account you want to connect.
• Choose the folder where resumes will be uploaded.
• Click on ‘Save and Send Test Request’ to test the connection.

Once the connection is established, any new resume uploaded to the specified Google Drive folder will trigger the workflow in Pabbly Connect. This integration is essential for automating the resume matching process.

3. Using OpenAI with Pabbly Connect to Extract Resume Data

After setting up Google Drive, the next step is to integrate OpenAI into your workflow through Pabbly Connect. In the action step, search for OpenAI and select it. Choose the action event as ‘Extract Content from PDF or Image’. Connect your OpenAI account by entering your API key, which you can generate from your OpenAI dashboard.

Map the download link of the resume from the previous step into the OpenAI action. Additionally, in the prompt field, enter the job description along with specific instructions for OpenAI to extract the candidate’s details and match them with the job description. This step is crucial as it utilizes the AI capabilities to analyze resumes effectively.

The final integration involves updating Google Sheets with the extracted resume data. In Pabbly Connect, add another action step and select Google Sheets. Choose the action event as ‘Add New Row’. Connect your Google Sheets account and select the spreadsheet where you want to store the resume data.

• Map the fields from OpenAI’s response to the respective columns in your Google Sheets.
• Ensure that all relevant details such as name, email, and match percentage are included.
• Test the connection by clicking ‘Save and Send Test Request’.

Upon successful execution, the extracted data will be added to your Google Sheets, allowing you to maintain a comprehensive record of the resumes processed through Pabbly Connect.

5. Testing the AI Agent for Resume Matching

Now that the workflow is set up, it’s time to test the AI agent. Upload a new resume file to your designated Google Drive folder. The Pabbly Connect workflow will automatically trigger, extracting the resume data and matching it with the job description provided.

After a few minutes, check your Google Sheets to see if the new resume details have been added successfully. You should see the candidate’s information along with the match status and percentage. This final step confirms that your AI agent is functioning correctly and can automate resume matching efficiently.
