Use the BAL Integration

Now that your integration is set up, you can send tests to your candidates who require immigration sponsorship.

Send the immigration assessment to a candidate

You can send the assessment to a candidate by moving the candidate to the BAL Immigration Assessment stage.

Then, click on the Send Test button.

Note: When you send a test in Greenhouse Recruiting, the BAL integration will connect to the Harvest API to retrieve additional details about the candidate and offered position and initiate the assessment request in BAL’s Cobalt® application.  Cobalt® then sends the instructions to the candidate.

After it has been sent, an assessment’s status will display as Pending in Greenhouse Recruiting.

Once BAL has completed the assessment, the task status will be updated in Greenhouse. The results of the assessment will be sent via email.
