Hi all!
My company uses Slack, and we've recently set up a bot (Hubot) that can do a lot of tasks to make things easier for us. Our bot is named Hodor. :)
The inspiration for this bot was the idea that we could perhaps use it to pull certain data from CATS about candidates and job orders. So examples of questions that could be asked:
- What is [candidate name]'s phone number?
- What is [candidate name]'s email address?
- What is [candidate name]'s preferred salary?
- How many job orders are active for [Company Name]?
- What is the salary range for [job order]?
- What is the job description for [job order]?
- What is the web portal link for [job order]?
I realize that some of these would be simpler than others ... and some might be impossible entirely.
Hubot uses CoffeeScript, what appears to be a modified version of JavaScript. I've got very little coding experience but so far I've been able to put our bot together and enable it to do scripted tasks.
Would anyone here have any insight into how I might accomplish these kinds of requests? I would be happy to provide as much information as necessary to help.
Thanks!
