BambooHR v2 integration

Updated today

Do you use BambooHR for your onboarding, reviews, and other processes? With this integration, you'll be able to add your new hires to your BambooHR account with a simple click.

📌 Note:

  • If you are currently integrated with the legacy BambooHR integration, you will continue to have full access without disruption. We recommend nonetheless switching to the new integration to avoid losing new BambooHR data in your Tellent Recruitee account.

Send new hires to BambooHR

Have you just hired a new employee via Tellent Recruitee and want to forward the information to your BambooHR account? Follow the instructions below:

1. Go to the hired candidate's profile. Click the three dots and select Send to BambooHR v2 in the dropdown menu.

2. Check the information, correct it if necessary, and click Send. You can also send additional fields by clicking Optional fields:

3. A BambooHR badge will be added to the candidate's profile so you and your teammates can see if a profile has already been forwarded.

📌 Note: You can only send a profile to BambooHR once.

4. You can find the forwarded candidate in BambooHR in People > List:
