Integration Spotlight: Seamless SkillSociety + Lever ATS Workflow

You've built your hiring process around Lever. Candidates flow in, interviews get scheduled, offers go out—all tracked in one place. Then comes the parts that live outside your ATS: AI screening, voice-based reference checks, candidate analytics.

Without integration, that means context switching. Exporting candidate data. Manually uploading interview results. Re-entering notes that should already be there.

That's why SkillSociety offers native Lever integration: a seamless connection that brings AI-powered hiring capabilities directly into your existing workflow.

Why Native Integration Matters

Connecting tools through APIs or CSV exports is better than nothing—but it's not seamless. Native integration delivers:

• Real-Time Data Sync: Candidate information, interview results, and status updates flow automatically between systems
• No Duplicate Entry: Enter data once; it appears where it needs to be
• Unified Dashboard: View AI insights and Lever data side by side
• Audit Trail: Every action is tracked across both systems for compliance and review

How SkillSociety + Lever Works Together

1. Candidate Sync: From Lever to SkillSociety

When you're ready to screen a candidate, a single click sends their profile from Lever to SkillSociety:

• Automatic Profile Import: Name, contact info, resume, and job details transfer instantly
• Role Context: The job posting and requirements inform Alex's interview questions
• Status Preservation: Track which Lever candidates have been screened and which haven't

2. AI Screening Results Back to Lever

After Alex completes the AI interview, results flow back to Lever:

• Interview Summary: Key strengths, concerns, and overall assessment appear as candidate notes
• Transcript Attachments: Full conversation transcripts attach to the candidate profile
• Score Updates: Overall match score updates custom fields in Lever
• Stage Advancement: Qualified candidates can automatically advance to the next stage

3. Voice-Based Reference Checks in Lever

When it's time for references, the integration handles coordination:

• Reference Invitations: Send via email from within Lever; track delivery and completion
• Voice Capture: Referees respond through SkillSociety; no Lever login required
• AI Analysis Results: Sentiment, tone analysis, and key insights sync to Lever notes
• Structured Reporting: Reference summaries attach to candidate profiles for hiring team review

4. Two-Way Status Updates

Both systems stay in sync throughout the process:

• Lever → SkillSociety: When a candidate is hired, rejected, or withdrawn in Lever, SkillSociety updates automatically
• SkillSociety → Lever: When screening or reference checks complete, Lever reflects the new status
• Stage Triggers: Configure automated actions based on status changes (e.g., send rejection email after negative reference)
