How to Set Up a Daily Task & Follow-Up Digest Using Recruit CRM MCP

This article walks you through setting up a Daily Task & Follow-Up Digest using Claude/ChatGPT/Perplexity once the Recruit CRM MCP connector is set up. This use case also requires a connected email tool, such as Gmail.

Written by Likhitha Satya Maansi Rudra

Every morning, you can ask Claude/ChatGPT/Perplexity to pull all your open tasks and meetings due that day from Recruit CRM, match each to the linked candidate, contact, or lead, and draft a ready-to-send follow-up for your review.

Before you begin:

1. You need to have access to Claude/ChatGPT/Perplexity (web, desktop, or mobile app) with the Recruit CRM MCP connector added to your respective Claude/ChatGPT/Perplexity account.

2. Recruit CRM MCP is available only on the Business and Enterprise plans.

3.The job you're reporting on should have an active pipeline with candidates in more than one hiring stage.

4. By default, Account Owners and Admins have MCP access. Users on custom roles with access to MCP can also have MCP access.


📋 How to Generate a Client QBR Using Claude/ChatGPT/Perplexity?


Step 1. Open AI assistants like Claude/ChatGPT/Perplexity and confirm the Recruit CRM MCP Connector Is Active:

Log into Claude/ChatGPT/Perplexity and check that the Recruit CRM MCP connector appears as a connected source in the AI assistant's settings.

If the Recruit CRM MCP connector isn't connected yet:

Step 2. Ask Claude/ChatGPT/Perplexity to Build the Daily Digest:

For example you can use this sample prompt:

"Pull all open tasks and meetings due today that are tied to me in Recruit CRM. For each one, pull the linked candidate, contact, or lead profile and draft the follow-up — an email or call note, based on the task type — using their background and our last interaction as context. Give me the list with a short reason for each, so I can review before anything goes out."

This step only produces drafts. Nothing is sent until you approve it.

Step 3. Review the Drafted Follow-Ups:

Claude/ChatGPT/Perplexity will typically return a list of open tasks due that day, each with a drafted follow-up and a short reason behind it.

Step 4. Approve and Send:

Once you're happy with a draft, tell Claude/ChatGPT/Perplexity to send it through your connected email tool, or send it yourself directly.


⚠️ Data Privacy - Please Read Carefully


When you use this MCP server, your Recruit CRM data is sent to the AI assistant you're using (e.g. Claude, ChatGPT). This means:

  • Candidate profiles, names, email, phone, job history, hiring stage, etc. will be exposed to the AI provider so that it can assist with the data.

  • Company and contact data, job details, notes, and call logs may also be exposed depending on what you ask.

  • The AI provider processes this data on their servers according to their own privacy and data retention policies.

What you should check before using:

  • Most AI providers (including Claude) have a data retention period - typically around 30 days for conversation data, though this varies by plan and provider. Always check the latest policies directly on their official websites:

  • If your team or organization has data residency, GDPR, or other compliance requirements, confirm that using an AI assistant with live recruitment data is permitted.

  • Use good judgment about what you query - only ask for data that's necessary for the task at hand.

By using this tool, you accept responsibility for ensuring its use complies with your organization's data policies and applicable regulations.
