SeekOut integrates with Talemetry, allowing you to export candidate data from SeekOut and turn it into Talemetry candidate profiles complete with contact information and work/education history. Candidate data can be sent to Talemetry 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 Talemetry.

Setting up the Talemetry Integration

Before You Begin

Reach out to your Talemetry Account Manager or customer support representative and ask for help integrating with SeekOut. You will need to enter into SeekOut the account name, password, and job report URL that Talemetry support provides for you.

Accessing Integrations

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

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

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.

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 Talemetry

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

Note: If you have set up an integration previously, click the next to the list of integrations at the top of the page to open the Add a Connection pop-up.

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

On the Credentials tab, enter the account name, password, and job report URL that Talemetry support provided to you. Select Production in the Environment dropdown.

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, Talemetry 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 Talemetry

To export all candidates in a project to Talemetry, go to your SeekOut project, click the Export icon and choose Export All to Talemetry.

Note 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 Talemetry . With both methods, clicking Export to Talemetry will cause a pop-up window will appear.

You can select a job from the dropdown menu or export the candidates as prospects. If your ATS does not support candidate profiles without email addresses, check the box Generate dummy email addresses for candidates. Click the Export button to export candidates to Talemetry. If successful, you will see a confirmation pop-up message that says "Export Complete."

Additional Notes

Duplicate Profiles

SeekOut will prevent duplicate records by not transmitting profiles that have already been successfully exported. Profiles that have been exported will contain a confirmation icon and the ATS system name. Example: ATS: Talemetry.

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

NOTE: Talemetry does not support a duplicate check feature through their API. Additional exports of the same candidate will result in duplicate profiles in Talemetry.

What do dummy emails look like?

When you check the box "Generate dummy email addresses" before exporting to your ATS, then SeekOut will create email addresses and send them along with each candidate who doesn't already have an email associated with their SeekOut profile.

When you check the box 'Generate dummy email addresses' before exporting candidates, then SeekOut will create fake email addresses for any candidates who don't already have an email associated with their profile.

The email addresses generated by SeekOut will look similar to these examples:

  • no-email--352233856@seekout.example.com

  • no-email--828794187@seekout.example.com

  • no-email-1047659244@seekout.example.com
