Supported objects in Zoho Recruit

The following are the Zoho Recruit objects that can be run in App Connect.

Object  Description
Candidates

 The candidate module in Zoho Recruit streamlines candidate management by storing a combination of company, person, and business opportunity details, depending on your ATS requirements.

Job openings  Job openings provide a clear overview of available positions within an organization, including job title, location, and requirements, allowing candidates to make informed decisions about their application.
Users  In Zoho Recruit, users can access and manage records within the organization, with some users having administrative capabilities for a smooth recruitment process.
Departments  Departments are created to establish a hierarchical structure within an organization, facilitating efficient recruitment processes.
Applications  Each candidate in Zoho Recruit is associated with a candidate application, containing their contact information, background details, resume, and any additional files they provided.

 

Scenario 1: Create a job opening in Zoho Recruit for job requisitions in SAP SuccessFactors

Consider the scenario:
In this flow, job requisitions from SAP SuccessFactors are retrieved and a job opening is created for each of the retrieved job requisitions. Then, an email is sent to the hiring manager with the details of the new job opening.

The following are the steps involved in the flow:

1.  Using the SAP SuccessFactors Retrieve job requisitions node, the flow retrieves the job requisitions from SAP SuccessFactors.
2. Using the Zoho Recruit Retrieve job openings node, the flow retrieves the job openings in Zoho Recruit.
3. Using the Zoho Recruit Retrieve users node, the flow retrieves the users in Zoho Recruit.
4. The flow verifies the job requisitions from SAP SuccessFactors in Zoho Recruit. If the job requisitions in SAP SuccessFactors do not exist in Zoho Recruit as job openings, the flow creates a new job opening in Zoho Recruit for each new job requisition.
5. Using the Gmail Send email operation, the flow sends an email to the hiring manager with the details of the job opening created in Zoho Recruit.

Scenario 2: Associate candidates with job openings in Zoho Recruit for each new Wufoo form entry

Consider the scenario:
In this flow, when a new Wufoo form entry is received with candidate details, the flow creates a new Zoho Recruit candidate with the details and sends a mail to the candidate with the details of a job opening associated with their skill sets, as specified in the Wufoo form entry.

The following are the steps involved in the flow:

1. The flow retrieves the details of the new Wufoo form entry.

2. Using the Zoho Recruit Retrieve candidates node, the flow retrieves the candidates in Zoho Recruit.
3. The flow verifies the candidate details in Zoho Books. If the candidate from the Wufoo entry does not exist in Zoho Recruit, the flow creates a new candidate in Zoho Recruit.
4. Using the Zoho Recruit Retrieve job openings node, the flow retrieves the job openings in Zoho Recruit that are applicable to the new candidate.
5. Using the Zoho Recruit Associate candidates with job openings operation, the flow associates the job openings with the new candidate.
6. Using the Gmail Send email operation, the flow sends an email to the candidate with the details of the associated job opening.
