Module 3: n8n Core Concepts

Chapter 13: Build an n8n Workflow to Automate Mentor Applications

In this chapter, you'll build a complete n8n workflow that collects applications through a form, scores each one, routes it with an IF node, and replies.

In the previous chapter, you learned how the Schedule Trigger works, how to read cron expressions, and how timezones and overlapping runs can affect an automatically triggered workflow.

So far in Module 3, you’ve looked at each part of the process separately. Now it’s time to bring those pieces together and build a complete workflow that solves a real problem from start to finish.

In this chapter, you’ll build a workflow that collects applications through a form, scores each application against your criteria, routes it based on the score, and sends an immediate reply to the applicant.

The workflow uses six nodes, requires no credentials, and there’s nothing to install.
