The best SmartRecruiters integrations, by category

SmartRecruiters covers the core of hiring, but sourcing, scheduling, and analytics often need backup. Here's what to bolt on, and why.

SmartRecruiters is a talent acquisition platform that combines applicant tracking with candidate management and hiring workflows.

Like most all-in-one platforms, SmartRecruiters is built to cover a range of functionalities but won’t always reach the depth that speciality tools can for specific recruiting layers, whether sourcing, scheduling, assessment, or analytics.  

SmartRecruiters’s integration ecosystem extends functionality to the specialist jobs that a dedicated platform handles best, enabling candidate data to flow between systems automatically instead of forcing recruiters to toggle between tools.

Below is a list of SmartRecruiters integrations organized by common bottlenecks in the recruitment process. Explore the full list of integrations, or skip the tools in the area you most want to improve.

How SmartRecruiters integrations work

SmartRecruiters offers native and marketplace integrations with hundreds of providers to create a robust recruitment ecosystem for hiring managers. Most tools within the SmartRecruiters marketplace use pre-built connectors to share data via one-way push, where data gets delivered from one tool to another, or two-way sync, when both tools share information in real time.

Others are connected using APIs (for direct, custom integrations), Webhooks (which get triggered at specific events), and middleware (the middleman between tools with no direct connectors). It’s key to understand the types of connections because that determines how candidate information flows through your systems. An API sync can keep records updated in real time; webhooks push updates only when there are certain triggers; and middleware routes data through a third party, which can add on lag time.

The best SmartRecruiters integrations by category

We’ve compiled a list of the best SmartRecruiters integrations, organized by category so you can jump to the ones most relevant to you.

Sourcing and candidate discovery

SmartRecruiters manages candidates in the hiring process and can resurface existing candidates already in your CRM, but it doesn’t perform outbound sourcing. Teams pair SmartRecruiters with a dedicated sourcing tool to cover this layer.

1.Juicebox

What it adds: Outbound sourcing on top of SmartRecruiters

Juicebox is an AI-powered sourcing and candidate discovery tool that lets recruiters expand their available pool of candidates. Juicebox lets hiring managers:

  • Search over 800 million profiles across more than 30 sources, including GitHub and research publications, to find candidates.

  • Describe their ideal candidate using plain language prompts and direct an autonomous AI agent to run outreach with the candidate after the fact.

  • Add candidates sourced from Juicebox directly into your SmartRecruiters pipeline through the integration between the two tools.

Plus, Juicebox ensures you have verified, updated contact information for each candidate, so you don’t waste time sending emails that’ll bounce back. 

Juicebox’s intelligence layer goes even deeper, providing background insight into a candidate’s experience and likely expectations. This layer includes:

  • Historical compensation data from Levels.fyi.

  • Talent-flow maps to see how the candidates move between companies and roles.

  • Network and warm-intro sourcing that gets you in front of the candidate faster.

  • Hiring manager workflows to guide your process and eliminate manual handoffs.

Juicebox also ensures that AI sources data fairly and ethically by maintaining SOC 2 Type II compliance and ISO 42001 readiness, and regularly running Public Warden AI bias audits.

Outreach and engagement

Strategic outreach and strong engagement are cornerstones of a great candidate experience. These integrations below expand SmartRecruiters’ native ability to nurture potential candidates, giving you a higher chance of standing out to the right hire. Juicebox, from the sourcing category, can cover outreach, as the following products also do.

2.Sense

What it adds: Candidate engagement, texting, and nurture automation that syncs with SmartRecruiters pipelines

Sense allows recruiters to automate and personalize engagement at scale. You can deliver customized texts, emails, or broadcasts to individual candidates and maintain historical context for each outreach. Best of all, every communication gets appended to the candidate record, which you can reference when you reach out to a candidate again for future opportunities.

3.Beamery

What it adds: Enterprise talent CRM and marketing that layers relationship and nurture data onto SmartRecruiters for large talent acquisition teams

Beamery is a system of record that provides a consistent view of workforce data, from specific roles and necessary skills to recruiter performance and market standards. The integration between Beamery and SmartRecruiters shares data bi-directionally between both platforms, populating both Beamery’s CRM and SmartRecruiters’ ATS hiring software with candidate and vacancy data in real time.

Scheduling and interviews

Finding time on hiring managers’ calendars and coordinating it with candidate availability can end up being an all-day to-do. These scheduling and interview integrations simplify this complex process and create a centralized record of interview dates and times, as well as notes from and recordings of the interview.

4.GoodTime

What it adds: Automated interview scheduling and coordination that syncs with SmartRecruiters, reducing manual work for complex panels

With the GoodTime integration, recruiters can schedule and manage interviews of varying complexity—individually, single-day, in bulk, multi-day, etc.— from within the SmartRecruiters app. Teams can also screen and prioritize candidates, automate rescheduling and cancellations, and generate insightful candidate reports within a single app, making it easier to manage the interview process.

5.HireVue

What it adds: Video interviewing and assessment whose results attach to the SmartRecruiters candidate record for structured evaluation.

Recruiters use HireVue to generate insights into how well a candidate fits a specific role by flagging experience and qualifications from the interview and adding it to the candidate profile in SmartRecruiters. With interview results at their fingertips, recruiters can conduct a more structured evaluation of candidates’ potential, which ultimately improves hiring quality. 

Assessment and screening

Assessing potential hires—whether that’s fit, technical ability, or cognitive aptitude—is essential to understanding how well they’ll flourish in the role they’re up for. Instead of storing your interviews separately from where you keep the rest of the hiring platform, these SmartRecruiters integrations allow you to store candidate data directly in your CRM and ATS.

6.Criteria

What it adds: Cognitive and personality assessments whose scores return to the SmartRecruiters profile for structured screening

The Criteria and SmartRecruiters integration empowers talent acquisition professionals to send invitations to candidates when they get to a certain stage of the interview process. Using this integration, you can access the results of Criteria’s cognitive aptitude tests, emotional intelligence assessments, skills tests, and even risk assessments directly from the candidate’s record in SmartRecruiters.

7.HackerRank

What it adds: Technical and coding assessments synced to the SmartRecruiters record for engineering roles

HackerRank is a developer-focused assessment platform that delivers personalized assessments for dozens of in-demand roles. Its integration with SmartRecruiters enables you to increase hiring quality and velocity by syncing the assessment results with the bigger picture of the candidate’s data.

Analytics and automation

A measured recruiting process runs smoothly. Instead of viewing data from each platform in isolation, use these SmartRecruiters integrations to sync data across platforms and automate processes that keep tools in sync.

8.Tableau

What it adds: Business intelligence dashboards built on exported SmartRecruiters data for deeper TA reporting than native analytics

Tableau’s web data connector visualizes the bottlenecks in your hiring process using the data within your connected systems. SmartRecruiters and Tableau’s two-way sync shares data between apps and allows you to generate views using specific data sets, which get added to your dashboard for future analysis.

9.Journeyfront

What it adds: Data-driven hiring analytics that connect assessment and hiring data to quality-of-hire outcomes

Journeyfront is a SmartRecruiters marketplace partner that layers predictive hiring analytics onto your recruiting data, helping teams see which sources, assessments, and criteria actually correlate with successful hires. By tying candidate data to on-the-job outcomes, it gives talent teams a clearer read on hiring quality and where to focus, with results syncing back into SmartRecruiters.

How to choose the right SmartRecruiters integrations

The key to successful integrations between your tools is selecting a specific workflow to test and running a small project to see it in action. Try this framework for choosing the right SmartRecruiters integration:

  • Identify your biggest gap: Where is your biggest bottleneck in the recruitment and placement process? That’s the problem you’re likely to get the most value from solving.

  • Double-check the connections between tools: There can be a significant difference in data quality in integrations that use one-way syncs vs two-way syncs. One-way pushes deliver the data to a specified end, but doesn’t update the other side of the connection. If both sides need to hold the updated information, check whether the apps sync bi-directionally.

  • Run a test pilot: Test a single workflow within a single integration first. Starting small allows you to be more intentional and granular with your approach to the solution, and gives you the chance to refine it before rolling it out to the rest of the organization.

Start with sourcing: Connect Juicebox

Of all the categories covered here, sourcing is the one SmartRecruiters leaves to you. It manages and rediscovers the candidates already in your system, but it doesn't go out and find net-new, passive talent, and that's where most hard-to-fill roles stall.

Juicebox is built for that sourcing work. Describe the role in plain language, and Juicebox searches over 800 million profiles across more than 30 sources to surface strong-fit passive candidates. Juicebox’s autonomous agents run outreach, verified contact data keeps messages landing, and sourced candidates flow straight into SmartRecruiters, so discovery happens in Juicebox while your pipeline stays where your team already works.
