FAQ
Can you integrate with our specific ATS like Bullhorn or Crelate?
Yes. We specialize in API integrations for major staffing platforms including Bullhorn, Crelate, JobDiva, and Avionté. This ensures that when you post a job in your CRM, it appears on your website instantly, and every application goes directly into your pipeline.

We build standardized data collection fields for EEOC voluntary self-identification. All data is handled according to CCPA/GDPR standards, and we ensure that sensitive candidate information is encrypted both in transit and at rest.
