Some workflow templates can be modified to work with other workflow templates - e.g. to convert a data sync between two services from uni-directional to bi-directional

Overview

Copy

Setting up new employees within your company HR system can be arduous and prone to human error. Teams need to be notified, the details about departments, their title, who this person was referred by and more all need to be registered somewhere.

Use this template to automate setting up new hires within BambooHR once they have been classified as 'Hired' within Greenhouse. Then alert the rest of the team on Slack.

Connectors used

Copy

The following connectors are used in this template.

This is mostly provided for reference only - there is no need to read through the linked connector pages. All you need to know for this template is explained here.

Though you will probably need to look up service authentication instructions if you don't already have them.

Greenhouse Webhook setup

Copy

To create a Greenhouse trigger you will need the public URL of your respective workflow.

Head to the Web Hook dashboard within Greenhouse and add this to the relevant input field.

You will also need to create a "Secret" key and make sure the Webhook fires when a ‘Candidate has been hired’.
