🤝 iCIMS Stream | Connect

Sort through candidate data from your ATS using SeekOut's powerful search engine and filters. Your iCIMS data is mirrored within SeekOut every day, and SeekOut enriches your data with social links, work history, and education.

This feature is available for users with Professional and Enterprise licenses.

With the Connect integration, candidates you find in public profile search are expanded to include the following information from your ATS:

  • Is this candidate already in my ATS as a prospect or applicant?

  • Their stage & status, and when they were last updated

  • The name of the recruiter who worked with them previously

  • View their email, phone number, and resumes/other attachments

Setting up the iCIMS Integration

iCIMS will assign an Integration Specialist to assist with creating an integration user. Save this information to a safe place; you'll be entering it into SeekOut.

Click your name at the bottom left of the SeekOut dashboard and select Integrations to open the integrations page.

If you already have an integration set up, you can add a new integration by clicking the plus sign at the top of the Integrations page.

Connecting to iCIMS

On the Integrations page, click + Add a Connection. Locate iCIMS Stream from the list of integrations and click the Connect button.

On the Capabilities tab, check the box next to Connect. Click Confirm Choices to continue to the next step.

On the Credentials tab, enter your Client ID, Client Secret, and Stream ID provided to you by iCIMS support.

Click Submit to save your credentials. SeekOut will automatically attempt to verify your connection. When successful, iCIMS will appear at the top of your Integrations page with a green check mark.

Removing the Integration

On the Integrations page, click the arrow next to a connected integration to Edit or Remove the integration from your SeekOut account.

Data Import Process

After the integration is setup and passes validation, we will automatically start downloading, indexing, and matching your candidate and job data. Depending on the number of candidates and jobs, this can take several days.

Once the first full download is complete, the integration will periodically check your ATS and only download additional data when it detects a change. Depending on how many changes are detected, the update process can vary in length from a few minutes to several hours.

How to use Connect

Go to SeekOut search and select the Public Profile tab at the top of the page.

With ATS Connect enabled, profiles you find when searching in SeekOut will be enriched with additional information (highlighted in orange below) if the prospect is already in your ATS.

How Candidate Matching Works

SeekOut matches the profile data from your ATS with the up-to-date candidate profile in SeekOut. SeekOut will use ATS data you provide to do this match, including:

  • Name, company, title, or other fields

  • LinkedIn profile URL

  • PDF resume

We use this data only to find the correct person in SeekOut and note whether they are in your ATS or not. This information is not shared with any other SeekOut customer and is deleted once the match is attempted.

This matching process happens regularly (typically daily or weekly, depending on your ATS) so new candidates in your ATS are always matched with their profile in SeekOut.
