Skillist enables companies to create a more open and efficient talent pipeline by collecting information about each candidate’s skills when they apply. Companies interested in using Skillist to implement skill-based hiring should reach out to Ananth Kasturiraman.
The Greenhouse/Skillist integration sends application information from accepted candidates directly into your organization's Greenhouse account. Application information sent through the integration includes the candidate’s name (first and last), email address, phone number, and the skill-based resumé generated by Skillist. In this article, we will cover the following steps necessary to enable the Greenhouse/Skillist integration:
Retrieve Greenhouse job board token
Before your organization can enable the Greenhouse/Skillist integration, you must retrieve your Greenhouse job board token.
Navigate to the Job Boards & Posts configure page. (Configure icon > Job Board & Posts)
Click the ellipsis inline with the live job board name, and select Edit Board Settings from the dropdown menu.
Navigate to the URL section and copy the job board token.
Add the job board token to the Skillist company panel
With your Greenhouse job board token copied, navigate to your Skillist owner account.

Navigate to the bottom of the dialog box and paste the job board token into the Greenhouse Job Board Token field.
