People integrates with Greenhouse ATS to allow you to transfer candidates within Greenhouse to new starters within People, automatically.

This streamlines the process of hiring new employees and getting them set up within People. Once you have hired a candidate in Greenhouse, an employee record will be created in People with the following information populated from Greenhouse;

EmployeeId, FirstName, LastName, Gender (Female by default), Email, StartDate, JobRole, JobRoleEffectiveDate, Location, Department, Address, PersonalPhoneNumber, ATS ID, CV, Covering Letter.

--Setting up--

1. First, you'll need to create an API key with access to your ATS and Employee endpoints. Click here on how to create an API key. 

2. Go to http://www.peoplehrint.com/ and create a new account using the Register option in the top right corner or Login in using your email and password.

3. Click into "Greenhouse Settings"

4. Think of and enter a unique security code (remember this code and keep this somewhere secure).

3. Click 'Activate Integration'.

4. You will see 'Your Greenhouse Integration Endpoint'. Copy that link to paste later.

6. Go into the 'Webhooks page' to create a webhook.

8. Select “candidate has been hired”.
