Use Greenhouse / SourceWhale Integration

Check for duplicate candidates

SourceWhale allows you to easily check if someone is in Greenhouse Recruiting already before reaching out to them. SourceWhale will match candidates on the following pieces of information:

  • Email
  • Phone number
  • Social profile URL (e.g. Linkedin profile URL)
  • Name & current company

If SourceWhale finds a match, it will automatically link on the chrome extension to the Greenhouse Recruiting profile.

Add candidates to Greenhouse Recruiting

You can use SourceWhale to add candidates directly from wherever you are on the web.

SourceWhale creates a new candidate record in Greenhouse Recruiting and automatically adds the following information to the candidate's new profile:

  • First Name
  • Last Name
  • Nickname
  • Company
  • Title
  • School
  • Location
  • Email Address
  • Phone Number

Activity Tracking

SourceWhale can also sync any activity or interaction with the candidate into Greenhouse Recruiting so it’s available for all Greenhouse users to see. By default, activity does not include the contents of any email messages between the recruiter and the candidate, for privacy reasons. However, this behavior can be modified upon request.
