How to Build Candidate Assessments Across Workday, Greenhouse, Lever, and 60+ ATS Platforms with a Unified API
Blog post from Unified.to
Candidate assessment in hiring processes can be streamlined across more than 60 applicant tracking systems (ATS) platforms, including major ones like Workday, Greenhouse, and Lever, by using a unified API, which simplifies handling the diversity in schema, authentication, and webhook behavior of each system. This API allows for real-time, normalized data exchange regarding candidates, applications, jobs, and attachments, enabling automated assessments and the seamless integration of results back into the ATS as notes or updates. Without such an API, custom integrations for each ATS would be required, leading to slowed delivery and increased maintenance overhead. Using Unified.to, the process involves connecting to the ATS, retrieving and filtering candidate data, registering webhooks, executing assessment workflows, and writing results back, all while maintaining a consistent experience without custom code for each platform. This approach benefits product teams by triggering assessments uniformly across systems, unifying data, providing real-time feedback to recruiters, and eliminating the need for managing individual API intricacies, thus enabling scalable and efficient candidate assessment workflows.
