Greenhouse supports over 500 native integrations through its Partner Marketplace, turning the core applicant tracking system (ATS) into a fully automated hiring ecosystem.
To make your recruiting stack faster and eliminate repetitive data entry, you can integrate marketplace tools via OAuth or build tailored workflows using the updated Harvest API (v3).
6 popular integration categories include:
- Sourcing & CRMs: LinkedIn Recruiter System Connect surfaces real-time LinkedIn candidate data directly in the Greenhouse candidate profile. Gem pulls Greenhouse pipeline stages into its CRM so recruiters never work from stale data.
- Assessments & Screening: Skima AI automates Greenhouse's recruiting module through AI candidate screening, verification, and ranking, providing explainable match scores and an unbiased shortlist. Codility sends and scores coding tests directly from a dedicated Greenhouse interview stage.
- Scheduling & Video Interviewing: GoodTime automates complex interview coordination while Greenhouse stays in the system of record. BrightHire auto-syncs AI interview notes directly into Greenhouse scorecards.
- Background Checks & Testing: Checkr orders and returns background checks from inside the candidate's Greenhouse profile. Sterling posts screening status and completed reports back to the candidate record automatically.
- Offers & E-Signatures: DocuSign lets recruiters send offer letters for signature without leaving the offer stage. Dropbox Sign saves signed offers straight back into the candidate's Greenhouse profile.
- HRIS & Employee Onboarding: Workday's Hire Link exports hired candidates automatically to create a pre-hire profile. BambooHR builds a new employee record the moment a candidate is marked hired.
Most native connections share a basic pattern. A Harvest API key from Greenhouse's Dev Center gives partners read and write access. Then, a stage move, hire event, or webhook determines when data is exchanged.
Greenhouse Marketplace lists more than 500 integration partners, which is an extensive list when deciding which ones earn a spot in your hiring stack. The marketplace groups these apps into categories, and a few top-rated tools in each provide the core features most structured hiring teams require.
This research-backed guide narrows that list to the top 2 tools per category. Across the 6 categories covered in this article, you will find what data moves between the two systems for each, what event in Greenhouse starts the connection, and the practical setup steps.
Overview: 10 Tools That Integrate with Greenhouse
Sourcing and CRMs
Greenhouse manages the structured hiring process well, but finding and nurturing candidates before they ever apply is a different job. These two integrations bring outside candidate data and outreach activity into Greenhouse without recruiters keeping a second, disconnected record of who they have already contacted.
1. LinkedIn Recruiter System Connect
LinkedIn RSC allows recruiters to view real-time LinkedIn Recruiter data right on a candidate's Greenhouse profile. This eliminates the need to switch tabs to check a candidate's background.
When a candidate accepts an InMail and agrees to share their data, RSC can automatically create a stub profile in Greenhouse. This removes the need to manually enter a candidate's details after the first contact.
The connection is two-way, but limited. Greenhouse job and candidate data, such as names, emails, and application sources, show up in LinkedIn Recruiter. Meanwhile, LinkedIn activity and profile access appear in Greenhouse. The setup is done once for the entire organisation, but each recruiter still needs to connect their own account afterward.
What syncs: Candidate names, emails, application source, and job details.
How it triggers: A candidate accepting an InMail and consenting to share data, or a recruiter exporting a prospect.
How It Connects
- Enable Recruiter System Connect in Greenhouse settings
- Select which integration packages to activate
- Click Notify ATS to confirm the request
- Each recruiter connects their own account in Settings
- Authorize LinkedIn Recruiter from Account Settings
2. Gem
Gem pulls Greenhouse data directly into its interface, so a sourcer can see a candidate's current pipeline stage or last Greenhouse activity without leaving Gem to check. Duplicate checking against existing Greenhouse candidates happens automatically before outreach, which keeps recruiters from contacting someone who already has a record in the ATS.
To upload a candidate from Gem to a Greenhouse job or prospect pool, it takes just one click. Gem's Pipeline Analytics links Greenhouse's hiring stages with its outreach stages. This helps the sourcing team track where their emails are turning into interviews.
What syncs: Candidate stage, last activity date, pipeline status, and source tags.
How it triggers: A change to a candidate's stage or activity in Greenhouse, checked continuously through webhooks.
How It Connects
- Open Dev Center, then Webhooks, in Greenhouse
- Click Automatically Set Up 29 Gem Webhooks
- Confirm the webhook setup completes in Gem
- Set a default candidate tag and import source
- Enable Auto-Follow Prospects if wanted
Assessments and Screening
Structured hiring works best when the evaluation step is consistent, whether that means a coding test or an automated AI resume screening. Both tools below integrate directly with an application record or Greenhouse interview stage, eliminating the need for recruiters to manage data in external systems.
3. Skima AI
Skima AI connects to Greenhouse through the Harvest API and scores every incoming and past application against the role's requirements, writing an explainable match score to the application record. Additionally, its skills detection feature identifies false skills, AI-generated content, and keyword stuffing within CVs.
Furthermore, a "SKIMA Screened" tag appears for quick filtering, so recruiters see which applications already had an AI review before opening any resumes.
Hiring managers receive a no-login shortlist link where they can approve or skip candidates with an optional note. This feedback writes back into Greenhouse as an activity note for the audit trail, keeping the recruiting record and the AI's reasoning in the same place instead of a separate tool.
What syncs: Match scores, match reasons, Skima Screened tags, and manager feedback.
How it triggers: A new application created or updated, a stage change, or an attachment added in Greenhouse.
How It Connects
- Generate a Harvest API key with read and write access
- Add or allow Skima AI to create custom fields
- Enable application, stage, and attachment webhooks
- Test on 2 to 3 requisitions before a full rollout
- Roll out to pilot roles and track ROI checkpoints
4. Codility
Codility's integration adds a dedicated assessment stage to a job's interview plan, so sending a coding test is a button click on the candidate's profile instead of a separate login to a testing platform.
Once a candidate submits, their score, along with plagiarism checks and suspicious-activity flags, appears directly in Greenhouse, giving interviewers more than a pass or fail number to work from.
Greenhouse supports two Codility integration paths: Codility Screen, which returns an overall score and a link to the full report, and Codility Advanced Screen, which adds a task-by-task performance breakdown directly into the Greenhouse record. Codility Interview, a separate add-on, lets recruiters schedule and launch live technical interviews from the same candidate profile.
What syncs: Test invitations, completion status, scores, plagiarism flags, and task-level results.
How it triggers: A candidate moving into a Codility assessment stage of an interview plan.
How It Connects
- Open Apps & Integrations in Codility and configure Greenhouse
- Submit your Codility API key through a Greenhouse support ticket
- Add a Codility Screen or Advanced Screen stage to the plan
- Select the test and assign a grader for that stage
- Send a test from the candidate's profile to confirm
Scheduling and Video Interviewing
Interview logistics consume a lot of time for recruiters and coordinators, especially when a hiring team grows beyond a few roles. The interview is where the hiring decision is truly made. The two tools below address different parts of that issue: one automates coordination, while the other captures what happens once everyone is together.
5. GoodTime
GoodTime uses the Harvest API to pull candidate information, job applications, and stage data into GoodTime, so coordinators are not re-entering details that already exist in Greenhouse.
Sending a candidate to GoodTime by stage kicks off automatic scheduling, and interviews sync back to Greenhouse through the feedback forms selected during setup, so the candidate record stays current without a coordinator checking two systems.
Greenhouse itself is still the system of record for candidates, applications, and hiring stages. GoodTime sits alongside it as a scheduling layer built for more complex coordination, like panel interviews, high-volume hiring events, and interviewer load balancing that a simple calendar tool cannot handle.
What syncs: Candidate data, job applications, stages, and interview feedback forms.
How it triggers: A candidate being sent to GoodTime by stage in Greenhouse.
How It Connects
- Generate a Harvest API key with the required 45 permissions
- Enter the API key under Integrations in GoodTime
- Toggle Use API to Sync Interviews on
- Toggle Sync Emails to ATS on
- Download the GoodTime Chrome extension to finish
6. BrightHire
BrightHire lets interviewers join a call through Zoom, Teams, or Google Meet and see their Greenhouse scorecard questions in real time, so they can focus on the conversation instead of typing notes throughout.
Once the interview ends, BrightHire's AI notes sync directly into the Greenhouse scorecard as a draft, cutting the gap between finishing an interview and submitting usable feedback.
Candidates get an email ahead of time letting them know the interview will be recorded, with the option to opt out, and recordings, transcripts, and AI notes stay linked to the candidate's Greenhouse profile for anyone on the hiring team to review later.
What syncs: Interview recordings, transcripts, AI notes, and scorecard drafts.
How it triggers: An interview being scheduled through a connected calendar tied to a Greenhouse candidate.
How It Connects
- Open the Greenhouse integration page in BrightHire
- Log in to Greenhouse Recruiting to authorize access
- Create an integration user with Site Admin permissions
- Generate a Harvest API key and enter it in BrightHire
- Create the interview webhook to finish setup
Background Checks and Testing
A background check is often the last gate before a start date, so any delay here pushes the whole hire back. Both tools order and track screenings from the candidate's existing Greenhouse profile instead of a separate portal that needs its own login and re-keyed details.
7. Checkr
Checkr lets a recruiter start, track, and review a background check without leaving the candidate's Greenhouse profile, using AI to speed up how fast a report clears adjudication. A valid work location is required before ordering, since Checkr uses it to send the correct disclosure forms based on the compliance rules in that state.
Checkr holds Greenhouse's Customer Preferred Partner status, reflecting how directly the two systems are tied together. Package options, nodes, and configurations are all set up on the Checkr side, then simply selected from a dropdown on the candidate's Applications tab in Greenhouse.
What syncs: Candidate identity, work location, package selection, and check status.
How it triggers: A recruiter starting a background check from the candidate's Applications tab.
How It Connects
- Click Integrations in Greenhouse and search Checkr
- Click Connect and follow Checkr's setup screen
- Confirm your existing account or create a new one
- Open a candidate's Applications tab to order a check
- Enter a work location and select a package
8. Sterling
Sterling creates a new background check order the moment a candidate advances into a designated Background Check stage, eliminating the need for recruiters to manually open a separate screening portal. Case statuses, including In Progress and Case Submitted, update automatically on the candidate's Private tab as Sterling processes the order.
Once the check is complete, Sterling posts the final status, score, and a link to the full report to the candidate record, so anyone reviewing the hire in Greenhouse sees the result without requesting it from a second system.
What syncs: Order status, score, and a link to the completed report.
How it triggers: A candidate advancing into the configured Background Check stage.
How It Connects
- Create webhook OAuth credentials in Greenhouse Dev Center
- Share credentials with your Sterling integration manager
- Confirm the Background Check stage name for your org
- Advance a test candidate into that stage
- Review order status on the candidate's Private tab
Offers and E-Signatures
Once a candidate reaches the offer stage, speed matters more than anywhere else in the pipeline. Both tools send offer documents for signature directly from Greenhouse and save the signed result back automatically, so nobody downloads a PDF and re-uploads it by hand.
9. DocuSign
DocuSign adds specialized tokens to offer templates, so an offer document pulls in a candidate's name, compensation, and start date automatically instead of a recruiter typing each field by hand.
Sending the letter takes place from the offer details screen in Greenhouse, and the signing status shows up right on the candidate's Offer Details tab as it moves through DocuSign's envelope.
The integration only works for candidates already active in the offer stage. It is not available for earlier stages in the interview plan, which keeps signature requests limited to candidates who have actually reached an offer.
What syncs: Offer document fields, envelope status, and completed signatures.
How it triggers: A recruiter clicking Send with DocuSign from a candidate's offer details.
How It Connects
- Generate your offer document with DocuSign tokens
- Each team member connects their own DocuSign account
- Click Send with DocuSign under offer details
- Finish the offer email and preview in DocuSign
- Send and track status from the Offer Details tab
10. Dropbox Sign
Dropbox Sign's integration, delivered through partner Shake It, generates and sends an offer letter for signature the moment a recruiter selects Send under the offer's Dropbox Sign field, without a separate trip to a signing platform.
Once every signer completes the document, the fully executed version saves automatically back into the candidate's Greenhouse profile.
The integration supports up to 10 additional signers per offer, configured as metadata fields, so a hiring manager, an HR executive, and a line-of-business leader can each sign their piece of the paperwork in a single request instead of separate emails.
What syncs: Offer document fields, signer status, and the completed signed document.
How it triggers: Updating the Send to Dropbox Sign field on a candidate's offer.
How It Connects
- Create a Harvest API key in Greenhouse Dev Center
- Share the API key with Shake It's support team
- Build your offer document with text tags
- Attach the document under Offer Details in Greenhouse
- Select Send from the Dropbox Sign dropdown
HRIS and Employee Onboarding
Greenhouse Recruiting hands off to a company's HRIS the moment someone accepts an offer, and that handoff is where new hire data traditionally gets rekeyed by hand. Both tools below move a hired candidate's information automatically, so onboarding starts without a second data entry step.
11. Workday
Workday's Hire Link exports a hired candidate's data automatically to create a pre-hire profile in Workday, kicking off onboarding without a custom integration or a coordinator filling out a CSV template by hand.
Setup requires a Workday administrator to configure an Integration System User with the correct security permissions, since the connection runs system to system rather than through manual exports.
Beyond the hire event itself, Greenhouse's broader HRIS Link can also import jobs, offices, departments, and user accounts from Workday, comparing job status across both systems and flagging a recruiter whenever something falls out of parity between the two.
What syncs: Candidate details, job data, offices, departments, and user accounts.
How it triggers: A candidate being marked as hired in Greenhouse.
How It Connects
- Create an Integration System User in Workday
- Set a security group and authentication policy
- Retrieve the WSDL URL from Workday's Public Web Services
- Enter the WSDL URL and ISU credentials in Greenhouse
- Confirm with your technical consultant to enable
12. BambooHR
BambooHR exports a candidate's information the moment they are marked Hired in Greenhouse, pushing name, email, phone number, start date, resume, cover letter, offer letter, and job title into a new BambooHR employee record.
Each Greenhouse Recruiting user connects their own account individually using a shared BambooHR API key, so permissions stay consistent even as the people running exports change.
Department and office values only map correctly if they match exactly between the two systems, so companies running tiered departments typically restructure those fields in BambooHR first to avoid errors on export day.
What syncs: Name, email, phone, start date, resume, offer letter, and job title.
How it triggers: A candidate being marked as Hired in Greenhouse.
How It Connects
- Create a Custom Access Level in BambooHR for exports
- Generate a BambooHR API key for the integration
- Copy your BambooHR subdomain from your account URL
- Each Greenhouse user connects their account under Integrations
- Check Export to BambooHR when marking a hire
Behind the Greenhouse Connection System
Most partners in Greenhouse's marketplace connect through the same foundation: a Harvest API key generated in Greenhouse's Dev Center, scoped to exactly the permissions a partner needs.
What differs by category is what triggers data to move once that key exists, whether that is a candidate reaching a specific interview stage, a hire event, or a webhook firing on a schedule.
3 Ways to Connect
1. API & Webhooks
Direct integrations like Codility, Checkr, and DocuSign use a Harvest API key alongside stage-based triggers, such as a candidate reaching an assessment stage or an offer being sent. Partners like Gem and BrightHire add webhooks on top of that key for near-instant syncing rather than periodic polling. This is the fastest path when a native marketplace listing already exists.
2. No-Code Automation
Zapier and workflow platforms like Tray.ai connect Greenhouse to apps without a dedicated marketplace listing, exposing events like a stage change or a new hire as triggers for actions elsewhere. This route fits custom workflows, such as routing a signed DocuSign envelope through internal approvers before it reaches a candidate, that a native integration was not built to handle.
3. Unified API Platforms
HRIS Link and similar report-based connections let Greenhouse pull structured data, like jobs, offices, and user accounts, from systems like Workday and ADP on a recurring schedule, cutting the maintenance load of building a custom sync for each HRIS a company might use.
Final Note
Greenhouse marketplace covers popular categories for structured hiring teams: sourcing, screening, scheduling, background checks, offers, and HR handoff. Choosing the best two tools in each category often depends on which manual step consumes the most time for your recruiting team each week.
If resume screening is that bottleneck, Skima AI integrates seamlessly with Greenhouse. It offers AI match scores, candidate skill verification, and easy-to-understand shortlists directly in your Greenhouse recruiting workflow, with no need for a new login or tab.
