The Update Candidate Field Agent is an AI agent in Recruiterflow that helps you keep candidate profiles up to date without the manual work.

Instead of filling out custom fields every time you upload a file, add a note, or log a call, the agent reviews the information and suggests updates to system and custom fields automatically.

What is the purpose of the update candidate fields agent?

Recruiters often deal with large amounts of candidate data. While our resume parser fills in system fields during parsing, many updates (like details from a note, call log, or email) still require manual entry.

The Update Candidate Fields Agent solves this problem by:

  • Scanning files, notes, emails, calls, or other activities on a candidate profile

  • Suggesting values for missing or outdated fields (such as title, company, LinkedIn profile, email, skills, etc.)

  • Letting you accept or decline suggestions before updating the profile

This ensures your database stays accurate and complete with minimal effort.

How much time do I save with the update candidate fields agent?

By removing the need to manually re-enter candidate details, the Update Candidate Fields Agent saves recruiters an average of 2 to 5 minutes per profile update.

However, the core advantage here is the fact that recruiters can completely eliminate the step of keeping the profiles updated. This entire operation can eventually be managed by AIRA, letting recruiters focus more on conversations and placements.

Where does the agent appear?

Once enabled, the Update Candidate Fields Agent is available across multiple areas in Recruiterflow, including:

  • Files (on individual files and under the Files tab in profiles)

  • Notes

  • Emails

  • Scorecards

  • Calls (on candidate profiles)

  • Custom Activities

  • Chrome Extension (LinkedIn) – visible only when the profile matches the candidate loaded in the extension

You can enable or disable the agent from the AIRA Agents β†’ Update Candidate Fields Agent in your Recruiterflow account.
