A curated collection of AI agent skills for modern recruiting workflows.

From JD creation to candidate sourcing to outreach — the full recruiting pipeline.

What Is This?

OpenClaw Recruiting Skills is a focused collection of AI agent skills that cover the core recruiting workflow. These skills are designed for OpenClaw and transform a general-purpose AI agent into a recruiting assistant that can write job descriptions, evaluate candidates, and draft outreach messages.

Each skill is a self-contained SKILL.md module. Install and start using immediately. Some skills integrate with external APIs for candidate search and data enrichment — see individual skill docs for setup.
