Recruiter Productivity Extensions — Chrome & Office Add-ins
Browser and Office productivity extensions that help recruiters view candidate/contact insights, compare external information with internal records, and push/pull CRM/ATS data without switching context.
Sanitized professional case study based on enterprise recruitment/platform experience. Client names, internal data, screenshots, credentials, and exact metrics are intentionally omitted; this page describes public-safe architecture, responsibilities, and delivery patterns.
One-line summary
Browser and Office extensions that surface CRM/ATS context where recruiters already work — the browser and their inbox — so they don't have to switch tools to act on candidate and contact information.
Problem
Recruiters lose time bouncing between their browser, email, and the internal CRM/ATS. The information they need to make a decision — whether a contact or candidate already exists internally, and how it maps to an open role — lives in a separate system from where they're actually working.
Solution
- Chrome extension — shows candidate/contact insights in context and lets recruiters compare external information against internal records.
- Microsoft Office add-in — brings the same candidate/contact context into email and contacts via Microsoft Graph.
- Two-way CRM/ATS data — push and pull records so updates flow between the recruiter's tools and the internal systems without manual re-entry.
Everything operates against the recruiter's own authorized internal data and accounts — the focus is productivity, context, and matching, not external data collection.
My role
Solution architecture and delivery: the extension/add-in integration model, the Microsoft Graph and CRM/ATS API contracts, and guiding the TypeScript/JavaScript and .NET API work.
Tools
Chrome extension APIs, Microsoft Office add-ins, Microsoft Graph, TypeScript, JavaScript, and .NET APIs into the CRM/ATS.
Intentionally omitted
Client names, internal data, screenshots, credentials, and store/listing detail. The extensions are described as internal productivity tools at an architectural level only.
