📋 Overview of each step in the Recipe for sharing new jobs on LinkedIn
1. Trigger: New Job Created in Recruit CRM:
This is the starting point of the automation. It gets triggered whenever a new job is created within Recruit CRM.
2. Actions:
Monitor step:
It helps in monitoring the following actions for errors. This makes the automation more reliable.
IF Condition:
Checks whether the condition specified is satisfied, and :
If yes, it continues to the next step, which is to first initialize the image upload on LinkedIn using your company ID to prepare for posting.
Then it downloads the image file (e.g., job banner) from Google Drive to generate an Image URN and share the job post with the image on your LinkedIn company page.
If no, then no further action is taken.
Error Handler:
If something fails within the Monitor block, then this step is triggered. The Retry Logic ensures that if the errors match those specified (429, 500–504), it retries the monitored actions up to 3 times. If the error continues after 3 retries, or if the error doesn’t match the handled types, the automation stops.
That's it! I hope this helps.
Feel free to reach out if you have any questions, or run into any errors! Happy recruiting :)
