ApproveThis manages your 100Hires ATS Integration approvals.

Let’s cut to the chase: approvals suck. Especially when you’re dealing with hiring processes that involve six people cc’d on an email chain, three different software tools, and that one manager who’s perpetually “out of office.” That’s why pairing ApproveThis with 100Hires ATS through Zapier isn’t just convenient – it’s a straight-up productivity hack for companies tired of playing approval whack-a-mole.

What Happens When Approval Automation Meets Hiring Muscle?

100Hires ATS handles the heavy lifting of recruitment – sourcing candidates, tracking applications, managing pipelines. ApproveThis does one thing extremely well: making sure decisions get made fast, with zero guesswork about where things stand. Connect them through Zapier, and you’ve got a hiring machine that actually works the way your team does.

The Nuts and Bolts of Better Decisions

Here’s why this combo hits different:

• No more approval limbo: Candidates automatically trigger review requests the second they hit your pipeline
• Zero license headaches: External partners can approve hires without needing access to your ATS

We’re talking about cutting approval cycle times from days to hours – and making sure your best candidates don’t get poached while you’re waiting for Doris in accounting to check her inbox.

Real-World Use Cases That Actually Matter

For HR Teams: Stop Chasing Sign-Offs

When a new candidate gets added to 100Hires, ApproveThis automatically pings the right approvers via email. No logins required. Hiring managers get a clean summary of candidate details and one-click approve/deny options. If they ignore it? Automatic reminders kick in. If they’re on vacation? Delegation handles it. HR gets to stop playing secretary and actually strategize.

For Department Heads: Budget Control Without Micromanaging

Let’s say you’re a engineering director. Configure approval thresholds so junior roles get auto-approved if under $80k, but senior hires require your sign-off. 100Hires candidate data flows into ApproveThis’ calculated fields to check salary ranges against budget – escalating only when necessary. You keep control without drowning in requests.

For Legal/Compliance: Audit Trails That Don’t Lie

Every approval decision in ApproveThis timestamps who approved what, when, and why. When combined with 100Hires’ candidate records through Zapier, you’ve got a bulletproof audit trail for EEOC compliance or diversity hiring initiatives. No more scrambling before board meetings.

Four Integrations That Actually Solve Problems

1. The Gatekeeper (New Candidate Approvals)

When: New candidate enters 100Hires → Triggers approval request in ApproveThis

Perfect for: Companies drowning in unvetted applications. Law firms use this to ensure only bar-certified candidates move forward. Healthcare orgs verify licenses before interviews. The kicker? Approvers don’t need 100Hires logins – huge for boards or external recruiters.

2. The Paper Pusher Killer (Job Post Approvals)

When: Job goes live in 100Hires → Requires compliance approval in ApproveThis

Actual example: A retail chain automates approval of seasonal job postings. Store managers draft listings, but ApproveThis requires sign-off from HR (for compliance) and finance (for budget alignment) before anything goes public. No more rogue “$20/hr” listings in $15/hr markets.

3. The Stage Coach (Pipeline Progression)

When: ApproveThis approves candidate → Automatically moves them in 100Hires

Tech companies love this for technical assessments. Candidate completes coding test? 100Hires triggers an approval request to the lead developer. Once approved, the candidate jumps to the final interview stage automatically. No HR middleman required.

4. The Compliance Safety Net (Stage-Specific Checks)

When: Candidate reaches “Offer Stage” → Requires exec approval in ApproveThis

Financial institutions use this to enforce dual control on high-salary offers. Offers over $150k get auto-routed to CFO + CEO with salary benchmarks and internal equity data baked into the approval request. Reduces negotiation screwups by 60% for some users.

Setting This Up Without Losing Your Mind

Here’s the brass tacks:

1. Create Zapier account (if you don’t have one)
2. Connect 100Hires ATS and ApproveThis as apps
3. Pick your trigger (e.g., “New Candidate in 100Hires”)
4. Set action (“Create Approval Request in ApproveThis”)
5. Map candidate data to approval fields

Pro tip: Use ApproveThis’ calculated fields to auto-flag candidates needing extra scrutiny. Example: “If salary request > market average by 15%, require CFO approval.”

Why This Isn’t Just Another Integration

Most app integrations just shuffle data. This combo actually changes how decisions happen:

• Approval groups prevent bottleneck (require 2/3 managers to approve instead of all)
• Conditional workflows auto-approve junior roles but escalate senior hires
• Email approvals mean execs can approve from their phones without app hopping

It’s about removing friction, not just adding automation.

Who Benefits Most? (Spoiler: Everyone)

HR Teams

Slash time spent nagging approvers by 70%. Real-time dashboards show exactly where each candidate stands approval-wise. Vacation delegation means no more “John’s out, can YOU approve this?” emergencies.

Hiring Managers

Get approval requests that actually include context – candidate resumes, salary history, interview notes pulled automatically from 100Hires. Make decisions in 2 clicks instead of 20 minutes.

Finance Teams

Auto-flag offers exceeding budget before they’re made. Set approval thresholds based on role tiers. Integration with your existing tools? That’s just gravy.

The Bottom Line

Combining 100Hires ATS with ApproveThis isn’t about fancy features – it’s about fixing the approval black holes that torpedo hiring speed. For companies scaling past 50 employees, those “minor delays” add up to real costs: lost candidates, wasted manager hours, compliance risks.

Ready to stop being a human router for approval requests? Get started with ApproveThis, connect it to your 100Hires ATS via Zapier, and actually hit those hiring goals for once.

Or keep forwarding emails and hoping for the best. Your call.
