Recruitee

Set up the Recruitee integration to sync jobs to JOIN for multiposting and route applications back to Recruitee. Learn setup steps, optional tag filtering, and limitations.

The Recruitee integration allows you to manage recruiting in one central place. Jobs created in Recruitee are automatically synced to JOIN and published across job boards. When candidates apply, their applications are forwarded directly into Recruitee—streamlining your entire workflow.

Before you begin, make sure to review the External HR tools article to understand the general requirements and limitations that apply to all integrations (e.g. sync frequency, job limits, multi-language/locations, screening questions).

Once connected, the Recruitee integration allows you to:

• Sync jobs from Recruitee to JOIN for multiposting

• Receive applications via JOIN directly in Recruitee

• Use Recruitee as your main ATS while JOIN handles distribution in the background

Connect Recruitee and JOIN

1

Get your Recruitee subdomain

To connect your Recruitee account with JOIN, you only need your company’s subdomain:

• Your subdomain is the part before .recruitee.com

• For example, if your career page is https://rocketship.recruitee.com, your subdomain is rocketship

2

Enter details in JOIN

1. Go to Settings → Integrations → Recruitee in JOIN

2. Enter your Recruitee subdomain

3. Click Request in the top-right corner

Our team will activate the integration within 1 business day and notify you once it’s live.

3

Sync only selected jobs (optional)

By default, all jobs published in Recruitee (within your JOIN job limit) will sync. If you prefer to sync only specific jobs:

1. In Recruitee, go to Settings → Workflow → Tags & Sources → Tags for Jobs

2. Add a specific tag (e.g. join) to the jobs you want to sync

3. Contact JOIN Support and tell us the tag you’ve used

4. We’ll configure our backend so only tagged jobs are synced

Tag-based filtering requires JOIN to enable the tag manually in our system. This gives you full control over which jobs are published via JOIN.

Screening questions

Screening questions set up in Recruitee are supported and will automatically appear to candidates who apply via JOIN.

• Candidate responses will sync back into Recruitee as expected

• Knockout questions are not supported

Limitations

Here are a few technical considerations to ensure your integration works smoothly:

• Phone numbers Avoid making phone numbers mandatory in Recruitee. If a candidate skips this field, JOIN will send a placeholder (“-”) to Recruitee to prevent sync errors.

• Cover letters Recruitee only supports cover letters as plain text, while JOIN handles file uploads. If cover letters are set as required, this may block the application from syncing.

Set cover letters to optional in your Recruitee job ads to avoid errors.

• Candidate source visibility JOIN always sends the source (e.g. Indeed, LinkedIn) with candidate data. However, Recruitee may not consistently display this information. This is a limitation on Recruitee’s side, and there is currently no workaround in JOIN.

FAQs

Can I manage or edit synced jobs directly in JOIN?

No. Always manage job postings in Recruitee. Editing or archiving synced jobs in JOIN may disrupt the sync.

What happens if I archive a synced job in JOIN?

If you archive a synced job (labeled Synced with a green checkmark ) directly in JOIN, it will stop syncing permanently unless you restore it from the Archived jobs tab.

How often does JOIN sync with Recruitee?

JOIN syncs jobs every 30–60 minutes. Candidate applications are forwarded to Recruitee in real time.

Can I choose which Recruitee jobs sync to JOIN?

Yes. Use job tags in Recruitee and let JOIN Support know which tag you want to use. We’ll enable filtering on our side. Jobs successfully synced via Lever are marked with a green checkmark and labeled Synced in within JOIN.

Are screening questions supported in this integration with Recruitee?

Yes. Screening questions from Recruitee will appear for candidates and sync back with their application. Knockout questions are not supported.

Can I require cover letters in Recruitee?

We recommend marking them as optional. If a candidate uploads a file instead of typing text, the application may not sync.
