Elastyc’s integration with Greenhouse Recruiting allows hiring teams to automatically evaluate candidates based on custom job criteria. Elastyc generates scorecards and grades that are sent back into Greenhouse for each candidate enabling recruiters to quickly and cost-effectively identify top candidates.
Elastyc’s integration with Greenhouse Recruiting allows you to seamlessly add Elastyc’s candidate scorecards to a candidate’s profile inside Greenhouse.

Use the Elastyc integration with Greenhouse Recruiting
Once Greenhouse is connected, setting up your first job for scorecards is a simple process. Our onboarding flow will ask you to select your first job.
Once the job is selected you will be able to set up the custom grading criteria that will be used to generate scorecards for candidates. We recommend adding between 4 and 8 criteria per job.
Once the criteria has been added you will be able to activate the job for grading.
Once grading has been activated for a job, the process of grading candidates is automated. Elastyc will retrieve candidates from Greenhouse, generate the scorecards and show the scorecard results in the Elastyc dashboard.
You can also go to settings and have the scorecards sent back into Greenhouse candidate profiles. This is done by going to the Settings section of the Elastyc dashboard and enabling it.
Select Push Scorecards to ATS and click Save Changes.
Once the integration is complete, scorecards will be added to candidate notes.
