Your Greenhouse login and your SeekOut login must both use the same email address when setting up the integration.

What jobs are visible from Greenhouse within SeekOut?

  • The jobs you see in SeekOut are based on your permissions in Greenhouse. For example...

    • A Greenhouse site admin has access to all jobs. They will see all open job reqs from their ATS in SeekOut.

    • A Greenhouse job admin has access to a specific job. They will only see job reqs that they have access to in SeekOut.
