Live integration, in production today
RefeRec plus JobAdder

Turn your JobAdder into a referral engine.

RefeRec plugs straight into JobAdder, so referred candidates land in your recruiters' ATS automatically and referrers see live progress. No double entry, no duplicates, no new workflow to learn.

Also integrates with Bullhorn

The short answer

Does RefeRec integrate with JobAdder?

Yes, directly and two-way. Open jobs flow from JobAdder into RefeRec so referrers always see real, current roles. Referred candidates and their submissions flow back into JobAdder, where your recruiters already work. Submission status then syncs back to RefeRec, so referrers and candidates watch live progress. Nobody rekeys anything.

Referral programmes lose momentum when they sit apart from the tools recruiters use every day. A platform that hands you spreadsheets is a silo. RefeRec writes referrals into your ATS, where the work actually happens.

How it works

How does the JobAdder integration work?

Five steps keep RefeRec and JobAdder in step, automatically.

Step 1

Connect once, securely

You authorise RefeRec through JobAdder's standard secure sign-in. The connection is held server-side, and you can see its health at any time.

Step 2

Jobs come in, on your terms

You choose which roles flow into RefeRec with configurable filters. The sync then runs automatically every day, so referrers see real, current jobs, never a stale list.

Step 3

Referrals flow back

When someone refers, RefeRec creates the candidate and submission in JobAdder automatically, inside your recruiters' normal workflow. Duplicate detection stops double-ups.

Step 4

Status stays live

Submission progress syncs back on a regular cycle, so referrers and candidates see the current stage without anyone chasing updates.

Step 5

Recruiters stay in charge

RefeRec honours recruiter ownership rules, so a candidate already being worked is handled correctly, and every hiring decision stays with your team in JobAdder.

Why referrals

Why plug referrals into your ATS at all?

Because referred candidates are the best candidates you'll ever place. They hire faster, stay longer, and come from the part of the market job boards can't reach. The only thing that holds referral programmes back is friction, and the integration removes it.

Security

Is the JobAdder integration secure?

It's usually the first question your IT team asks. Here are the straight answers.

Credentials stay server-side

ATS tokens are held securely on the server and never exposed to the browser or to referrers.

Standard secure sign-in

The connection uses JobAdder's standard authorisation, scoped to your own JobAdder account.

Tenant isolation

Every sync is scoped to one client. One client's ATS data is never visible to another.

No duplicates

Writes are controlled and repeatable, with duplicate detection. Re-running a sync won't create duplicate records.

Resilient by design

The integration handles rate limits and transient errors gracefully. It won't overload your JobAdder or drop data.

Connection visibility

You can see whether your JobAdder connection is healthy at any time.
