Two Platforms, One Goal: Smarter Recruitment
Modern hiring teams face a critical challenge: balancing thorough candidate evaluations with the need for speed in competitive talent markets. Canditech’s skills assessments provide deep insights into candidates’ technical abilities and cultural fit, while ApproveThis brings structure to the decision-making process. Together through Zapier, these platforms create a recruitment engine that’s both rigorous and responsive.
This integration isn’t about replacing human judgment – it’s about eliminating bottlenecks in high-stakes scenarios. When a candidate aces their technical assessment but requires executive sign-off for a specialized role, or when HR needs legal team confirmation on international hiring compliance, the ApproveThis-Canditech connection keeps decisions moving.
Why This Integration Changes the Game
For growing companies, every hiring delay risks losing top candidates to competitors. The Canditech-ApproveThis bridge through Zapier addresses three fundamental needs:
- Speed: Reduce approval wait times from days to hours
- Compliance: Maintain audit trails for EEOC requirements or SOC 2 certifications
Consider a cybersecurity firm hiring for a sensitive government contract role. Canditech’s technical evaluations verify skills, while ApproveThis automatically routes clearance approvals to compliance officers. The result? Qualified candidates move forward without security gaps.
Real-World Use Cases That Deliver ROI
1. Instant Approval Triggers for High-Priority Roles
When Canditech detects a candidate scoring above 90% on critical technical assessments, ApproveThis can:
- Bypass standard hiring committee reviews
- Directly notify department heads via SMS/email
- Lock in interview slots within 24 hours
A Silicon Valley AI startup used this method to secure 3 lead engineers before competitors could make counteroffers, cutting their time-to-hire by 62%.
2. Cross-Departmental Hiring Compliance
Global enterprises use the integration to automate localization checks:
1. Canditech flags candidates requiring visa sponsorship
2. ApproveThis routes immigration paperwork to legal teams
3. HR receives greenlight only after all I-9 compliance checks
This workflow helped a Boston-based biotech firm expand their German lab team without risking immigration violations.
Setup Made Simple
Connecting Canditech and ApproveThis takes under 15 minutes:
- Create Zapier account (free tier works)
- Choose Canditech as trigger app
- Select ApproveThis as action app
- Map assessment scores to approval thresholds
Pro Tip: Use ApproveThis’ calculated fields to auto-approve candidates meeting multiple criteria (e.g., technical score + culture fit + location preference).
Department-Specific Benefits
HR Teams
Automate offer letter approvals based on Canditech’s personality assessment results. If a candidate scores high on leadership traits but medium on technical skills, ApproveThis can flag the hire for additional technical interviews before approval.
Hiring Managers
Receive real-time SMS alerts when preferred candidates complete assessments. Approve requests directly from your phone during industry conferences or site visits.
Executives
Monitor diversity hiring goals through ApproveThis’ dashboard, with candidate demographic data pulled from Canditech’s anonymized assessments.
Beyond Basic Approvals: Advanced Features
ApproveThis’ vacation delegation ensures seasonal hiring surges aren’t derailed by approver availability. When your CHRO takes maternity leave, the system automatically shifts final approvals to designated deputies without missing SLAs.
The platform’s conditional logic can also handle complex scenarios:
- Auto-approve internal transfers scoring above Canditech benchmarks
- Flag external candidates for additional interviews if assessment times suggest possible cheating
- Escalate executive hires to the board after 3 approval layers
Why This Integration Wins
Traditional ATS platforms create approval silos. By connecting Canditech’s predictive analytics with ApproveThis’ decision automation, companies achieve:
- 40% reduction in candidate drop-off rates
- 28% faster approval cycles for critical roles
- 100% audit compliance on EEOC reporting
A Midwest healthcare network used the integration to streamline nurse hiring across 23 clinics, reducing time-to-fill from 58 to 19 days while maintaining strict licensing verifications.
Getting Started
ApproveThis requires no additional licenses for external approvers – ideal for situations requiring client sign-off on contractor hires or academic partnerships. Canditech users can maintain their existing seat count while expanding approval transparency.
