1. Accessing Pabbly Connect for Automation

To start automating job postings, access Pabbly Connect by visiting their website. Log in or create a new account if you are a first-time user. Pabbly Connect allows you to set up integrations without any coding skills, making it user-friendly for hiring managers.

Once logged in, you will see the dashboard of Pabbly Connect. Here, you can create a new workflow that connects Google Sheets with various platforms like Facebook and LinkedIn. Click on the ‘Create Workflow’ button to get started.

2. Creating a Workflow in Pabbly Connect

After clicking ‘Create Workflow,’ you will be prompted to name your workflow. For this tutorial, name it ‘Automatically Post Job Listings to Various Platforms via Google Sheets.’ You can also choose a folder for better organization within your Pabbly Connect account.

• Click on the ‘Create’ button to finalize your workflow setup.
• You will see two sections: Trigger and Action.

In this workflow, the trigger will be Google Sheets, where new job listings will be created. The action will be to post these listings on Facebook and LinkedIn. This setup streamlines the recruitment process, allowing you to focus on selecting candidates.

3. Setting Up the Trigger with Google Sheets

To set up the trigger, select Google Sheets as your trigger application in Pabbly Connect. Choose the trigger event as ‘New or Updated Spreadsheet Row.’ This means that whenever a new job listing is added to your Google Sheet, it will trigger the automation.

Pabbly Connect will provide you with a unique webhook URL. Copy this URL, as it will connect Google Sheets with Pabbly Connect. Open your Google Sheet and go to Extensions > Add-ons > Get Add-ons to install the Pabbly Webhooks add-on.

• Search for ‘Pabbly Webhooks’ in the Add-ons store.
• Install the add-on and refresh your Google Sheet.

After refreshing, click on Extensions > Pabbly Webhooks > Initial Setup. Paste the copied webhook URL and set the trigger column to the column where job position data will be entered. Click on ‘Submit’ to complete the setup.

4. Setting Up Actions for Facebook and LinkedIn

With the trigger set up, you can now configure the actions. Start with Facebook by selecting it as your action application in Pabbly Connect. Choose ‘Create Page Post’ as the action event. Connect your Facebook account to allow Pabbly Connect to post on your behalf.

In the action setup, select the Facebook page where you want to post the job listing. You can map the data from the Google Sheets trigger to fill in the job title, description, and application details in the Facebook post.

Map the job position, description, and other relevant details from the Google Sheets trigger. Click on ‘Save and Send Test Request’ to test the Facebook post.

Once the test is successful, repeat the process for LinkedIn by selecting it as another action application, using the ‘Share Simple Text’ event, and mapping the same job details for a LinkedIn post.

5. Finalizing Your Job Posting Automation

After configuring both actions, your automation is nearly complete. Test the entire workflow by adding a new job listing to your Google Sheets. If everything is set up correctly, Pabbly Connect will automatically post to both your Facebook and LinkedIn accounts.

Upon successful testing, you can continue using this automation for all future job postings. This process significantly reduces the time spent on manual postings and enhances your hiring efficiency.

In summary, using Pabbly Connect to automate job postings from Google Sheets to various platforms like Facebook and LinkedIn streamlines your recruitment process. You can now focus on interviewing and selecting the best candidates without the hassle of manual postings.
