Source Top GitHub Talent by Language & Location with Gemini AI and BrowserAct

AI-Powered Top GitHub Talent Sourcing (by Language & Location) to Google Sheet

This n8n template is a powerful talent sourcing engine that finds, analyzes, and scores GitHub contributors using a custom AI formula.

This workflow is ideal for technical recruiters, hiring managers, and team leads who want to build a pipeline of qualified candidates based on specific technical skills and location.

Self-Hosted Only

This Workflow uses a community contribution and is designed and tested for self-hosted n8n instances only.

How it works

• The workflow runs on a Schedule Trigger (e.g., hourly) to constantly find new candidates.
• A BrowserAct node ("Run a workflow task") initiates a scraping job on GitHub based on your criteria (e.g., "Python" developers in "Berlin").
• A second BrowserAct node ("Get details") waits for the scraping to complete. If the job fails, a Slack alert is sent.
• A Code node processes the raw scraped data, splitting the list of developers into individual items.
• An AI Agent, powered by Google Gemini, analyzes each profile. It scores their resume/summary and calculates a final weighted FinalScore based on their followers, repositories, and resume quality.
• The structured and scored candidate data is then saved to a Google Sheet, using the "Name" column to prevent duplicates.
• A final Slack message is sent to notify you that the GitHub contributors list has been successfully updated.
