🤝 JobScore | Export

SeekOut integrates with JobScore, allowing you to export candidate data from SeekOut and turn it into JobScore candidate profiles complete with contact information and work/education history. Candidate data can be sent to JobScore as prospects, or they can be attached to an existing job.

This article covers how to set up your integration, as well as how to export candidate info from SeekOut to JobScore.

Before You Begin

API Key

JobScore requires an API key in order to integrate with SeekOut. To obtain your API key, login to your JobScore account and click on the Integrations tab on the left hand navigation menu.

Under API Keys, click Add API Key. Under Access Level select User Key and input ‘SeekOut Export Key’ as the Description, then click Add.

Copy and save your API key in a safe place; you will be entering this API key in SeekOut later.

Source

JobScore has a field labeled Source that describes where the candidate was sourced from. For all candidates exported from SeekOut, this field will be populated with the name ‘SeekOut.'

To set this up, navigate to Admin on the left-hand navigation menu and click Sources under the Configuration section.

Click the Edit icon ✏ next to Database.

Click Add Database, type in SeekOut in the Name field, and click Add. This field is case sensitive; make sure you type SeekOut with capital letters. When finished, you should see SeekOut in your list of databases.

Tags

You can use Tags in SeekOut to tag candidates you find, and these tags can be exported to JobScore. You must enter all of the tags you use in SeekOut into JobScore in order for your integration to work correctly.

First, to find your list of tags in SeekOut, login to SeekOut as an administrator and click your name at the bottom left of your Dashboard, then select Team Administration. Next, click Org Settings. You'll see the tags you use in SeekOut under the section Your Organization's Tags.

To add tags to JobScore, login to your JobScore account and select Admin from the navigation menu on the left, then click Tags under the Workflow section:

Under Tags click Add Tag. Enter the name of a tag you are using in SeekOut and click Add. Tag names are -not- case sensitive and will appear in lowercase by default. Repeat this process with all of the tags you have configured in SeekOut.

Setting up the JobScore Integration

Accessing Integrations

Click your name at the bottom left of the SeekOut dashboard, then select Integrations.

Note: Don't see the Integrations option in your menu? Contact your Customer Success Manager or support@seekout.com and ask to enable ATS integrations for your org.

On the Integrations page, click + Add a Connection to open the list of applicant tracking systems. If you've set up an integration with SeekOut before, your current integrations will be listed on this page. Click the plus sign + at the top of the page to open the ATS list.

Connecting to JobScore

On the Integrations page, locate JobScore from the list and click the Connect button.

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

On the Credentials tab, enter your API key.

Click Submit to save your credentials, then click Next. SeekOut will automatically attempt to verify your connection when you first set it up by exporting a test candidate as a prospect or to a job in the populated jobs list. Choose either Export as Prospect or select a job from the jobs list and click Verify. When the ‘All Good’ message appears, click Finish and ensure the test candidate has been successfully added to your ATS.

When successful, JobScore 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.

Exporting from SeekOut to JobScore

Recommended: Export from a project

To export all candidates in a project to JobScore, go to your SeekOut project, click the Export icon and choose Export All to JobScore. Contact information such as email addresses and phone numbers will only appear in your export if you click Get Email for All and Get Phone for All before exporting.

Alternatively, you can export select candidates from SeekOut by clicking the box next to their profile, clicking Export and then selecting Export X to JobScore. With both methods, clicking Export to JobScore will cause a pop-up window will appear.

You can select a job from the dropdown menu or export the candidates as prospects. If you don't have email addresses for all candidates, check the box Generate dummy email addresses for candidates.  Click the Export button to export candidates to JobScore. When successful, you will see a confirmation pop-up message that says "Export Complete."

Additional Notes

Duplicate Profiles

By default, SeekOut will not transmit profiles that have already been successfully exported to prevent duplicate records in your ATS. Candidates that have been exported will display a confirmation icon and the name of your ATS in their SeekOut profile.

Check the box Include previously exported candidate(s) if you're exporting the same candidates to your ATS again.

Note: JobScore will check for duplicate candidates but does so asynchronously. This means that JobScore will not check for duplicates immediately when you export from SeekOut, but over time JobScore will check candidate records to see if they are duplicates of records already in your ATS. When JobScore finds duplicate profiles, they will display a warning message to you with the option to merge the duplicates.
