Using the integration
Step 1 - Define and calibrate hiring criteria:
- In Nova, choose a Greenhouse job to activate.

- Score a sample set of real candidates to calibrate the criteria.
- Once aligned, Nova will review all candidates and add assessments back in Greenhouse. You can also check your scoring analytics in Nova:
Step 2 - Review candidates in Greenhouse:
Nova automatically scores and ranks inbound applicants against your aligned screening criteria.
- Filter candidates using the Nova relevance score
- The Nova relevance score and assessment are added to each candidate inside Greenhouse, allowing you to:
- See strengths, concerns, and interview focus areas
- Recruiters can stay inside Greenhouse and use Nova’s feedback to help decide who to advance, reject, or rediscover.
