Common implementation questions
Q: How quickly do assessment results appear in Greenhouse?
A: Results are pushed immediately after an assessment or reference check completes; the report link and scores appear in the candidate profile without manual refreshes.
Q: Is candidate data stored in both systems?
A: Yes — Greenhouse remains the applicant tracking source of record while HiPeople stores assessment and reference artifacts in a compliant manner; integration syncs identifiers and results.
Q: What security and compliance standards are supported?
A: HiPeople Send provides audit trails, encryption in transit and at rest, and configurable retention policies to accommodate common compliance needs; verify region-specific controls during implementation.
Q: Are there extra implementation fees?
A: The integration typically doesn’t require a partner implementation fee; confirm with HiPeople’s sales or your Greenhouse account manager for any custom onboarding options.
Q: Can I customize assessment templates?
A: Yes — templates can be tailored per role or hiring stage so teams only send relevant assessments and reference questionnaires.
Measure the integration’s impact by tracking a few practical metrics: reduction in recruiter time per candidate, change in time-to-offer, completion rate of assessments, correlation between assessment scores and hire performance, and number of manual data-entry errors avoided. Use baseline figures from a representative hiring period to calculate hours saved and improved decision time.
Best practices to maximize ROI with HiPeople Send
- Map your hiring workflow first Identify the exact Greenhouse stages where automated invites should trigger so you avoid unnecessary candidate friction.
- Standardize templates per role Create a small set of validated templates that reflect must-have skills and critical reference questions for each job family.
- Set clear score thresholds Define what assessment and reference scores mean for progression decisions to reduce subjective interpretation in hiring panels.
- Auto-notify hiring managers Create notifications so hiring managers receive results in their Greenhouse workflow and can review prior to debriefs.
- Monitor and iterate Regularly review analytics to remove low-value assessments, tighten templates, and improve completion rates.
Limitations to consider: assessments must be carefully validated for role fit — a generic test can create noise if it doesn’t reflect job demands. Integration adds one more tool to manage, so ensure you assign ownership for template maintenance and monitoring. Fraud detection reduces risk but may produce false positives that need human review.
How HiPeople Send + Greenhouse compares to manual screening
Q: Is automated screening faster than manual review?
A: Yes — automation removes repetitive steps (invites, reminders, manual score entry), reducing hands-on recruiter time and accelerating the timeline from application to decision.
Q: Does automation improve decision accuracy?
A: It improves consistency by capturing standardized data tied to role-specific metrics; however, human interpretation of nuanced fit remains essential.
Q: Will candidates notice a different experience?
A: Candidates typically receive a smoother and faster process when assessments are integrated into the ATS, with clear instructions and fewer manual communications.
