How to Deduplicate and Visualize Talent Pools Across ATS Platforms with
Blog post from Unified.to
Recruiting products can create a unified talent-pool view across multiple ATS platforms by using Unified.to’s normalized ATS API to read candidate and application data, then storing it in an internal database for analysis. Candidates should be deduplicated into canonical profiles using normalized email addresses as the primary identifier, LinkedIn URLs as a secondary key, and standardized phone numbers as a fallback, while preserving source ATS records and the most recent activity dates. Applications can be linked to these profiles and aggregated by standardized statuses to produce cross-system funnel views, while candidate update timestamps and internally tracked history can identify dormant or stale records. The approach can also combine ATS data with internal CRM prospects, event leads, and sourced candidates to prevent duplicate outreach and reveal prior interactions. Unified.to supplies the normalized data models, application-stage vocabulary, pagination, and some incremental synchronization capabilities, while the recruiting product is responsible for identity resolution, data merging, analytics, refresh workflows, and recruiter-facing visualizations.
