Triggering Zaps in Order

Hello!

 

I’m not sure if this would be the right title, but essentially I have the following problem:

 

I have a zap that when a Google Forms is submitting, it adds that information to a spreadsheet that I use for tracking. I then have another zap in which on the same spreadsheet if I update a certain column in that row it will create an email draft. The spreadsheet itself is tracking new hires to a company that are submitted by hiring managers and I would like to trigger an email draft with auto input information back to the hiring manager when that person has completed their background check (by updating the column/row for that persons background check). This seems to work well except that when the form initially adds a row, it rightly sees that as an update and triggers the email draft.

Is there a possible work around for this? Maybe a way to have 1 zap trigger turn on only after another has completed?

Thanks!!
