PeopleForce holds your recruitment pipeline and employee records. FlowMattic shares the right parts in Slack: new applicants with the hiring team, accepted offers with managers, a welcome on someone's first day and approved leave with their team. Sensitive events such as terminations go to a private HR channel. For HR and people teams at growing companies.

Each one uses only triggers and actions the two integrations ship today, plus FlowMattic's own tools. Where the library has a ready-made template, import it instead of building from scratch.
Ready-made templateEach applicant posts their name and the vacancy to the recruiting channel, so hiring managers can review promising candidates without waiting for a weekly shortlist.

Applicant Offer Accepted creates a channel for the new starter's onboarding, so IT, the manager and HR plan laptops, access and the first week in one place.

A trigger starts a workflow. An action is something FlowMattic does in the app as a step.
PeopleForce and Slack connect through FlowMattic on your own site, with no separate automation account in the middle and no charge per run.
Hiring, onboarding and leave each go to the people who need them, while personal details stay in private channels.
Employee and applicant details pass through your own WordPress site on the way to Slack, not through another company's automation account.
Runs are unlimited on every FlowMattic plan, so a hiring push or a busy leave season costs nothing extra.
Create a FlowMattic workflow with a PeopleForce trigger such as Applicant Created or Employee First Date, follow its setup instructions, then add a Slack step such as Send Channel Message with the fields mapped.
