Full ATS

An ATS of their own, built on the way they already work.

How it works

Plan it first. Then build it.

Before day one

Online pre-work, at your own pace.

What you can automate, which technologies you will use, and the do's and don'ts. Your accounts are set up and working before you arrive, so the two days are for building, not theory.

Day one

Write the PRD. Start building.

You team up around a real use case from your own work. First you write down what the tool must do, then you build it with Claude Code or Codex, with two trainers at the tables.

Day two

Fix it. Finish it. Run it.

The morning opens with a bug-hunt in a build that is broken on purpose. Then back to your own tool until it runs. The day ends with the certificate.

What is a PRD?

A product requirements document. One page that says what your tool does, for whom, and what it must never do. You write it before anything gets built, so Claude Code or Codex builds what you meant instead of what it guessed.

Practical

Where and when.

From the field

What it paid back.

Manual job searching

Daily automated pipeline running without intervention

Joey Koksal, vanRaam

“I wanted to work with AI in my recruitment work but did not know where to start or whether I was even capable of building something myself. After two days at the Klikwork bootcamp I developed genuine confidence that I can build working workflows for any process. The possibilities are endless. The only limit is your own imagination. I learned a real, new skill.”

Recruiter, Tools4ever

“I was already experimenting with Claude and other AI tools but could not figure out how to connect everything together into something that actually worked. In a world where bullshit AI trainings and products are everywhere, the Klikwork bootcamp is a breath of fresh air. You leave with something you can implement straight away.”

Wall of referrals

Do not take our word for it. Ask them.

12 recruiters who did the bootcamp and wrote a recommendation about it on their own. Their profile is right there. Pick one, take the message we wrote, ask them what it was worth.

Owners and partners

Corporate and in-house

Sourcing and interim

Every quote stands as it was written, in Dutch or in English. Nothing translated, nothing trimmed into something that was not there. Everyone on this wall knew their profile would be linked here.
