With the integrated Spark Hire Meet solution, your Recruit experience just got even better. This powerful alliance brings you a seamless and efficient way to supercharge your hiring process. Here's how:

  • Uncover more about your candidates in a fraction of the time by having them self-record video answers to your interview questions.
  • Allow candidates to respond to your interview questions on their own time, helping you keep the hiring process moving smoothly.
  • Manage the complete hiring process in Recruit—including selecting and initiating Spark Hire Meet interviews directly in your Recruit workflows.
  • Share recorded video interviews with your hiring managers and make informed choices together.

Configure integration

  1. In Recruit, from the left-side menu, select Apps.
  2. Under Offered by Spark Hire, select the Spark Hire Meet tile, and then Continue to setup.
  3. Copy the API key, navigate to Spark Hire Meet, and sign up with your Admin account.
  4. Paste the API key and complete the setup on Spark Hire Meet.
  5. Return to Recruit and click Activate.

Add Spark Hire Meet to your workflow

  1. In Recruit, click on a position and navigate to the position workflow.

  2. Add a new step or select an existing one.

  3. Select Spark Hire Meet from the list of available step names.

  4. Select the relevant assessment from the dropdown menu. These options represent the different Question sets available to you. Next to each question set name, you can click Description… to see the list of questions included.

  5. Configure the expiration setting for the candidate to complete the One-way video interview.

  6. You can set the step to auto-start, so Recruit will automatically send the interview requests to the candidate when they get to that step.

📝Note: Assessments cannot be started for jobs that aren't Active on Spark Hire Meet.

Send assessment requests to your candidates

  1. After selecting the relevant assessment, click Start to initiate the Spark Hire Meet step. This will trigger an email message from Spark Hire Meet to the candidate with a request to take the assessment.
    • ⚠️Important: If your Spark Hire Meet plan includes SMS notifications but the candidate's phone number lacks a country code, SMS notifications won't be sent. Learn about adding a country code to phone numbers.
  2. To skip the Spark Hire Meet step in the candidate workflow after it has started, click Mark as completed.
    • If a candidate completes a Spark Hire Meet assessment, but the step in the flow was skipped (marked complete), the evaluation won’t appear in Recruit. Go to your Spark Hire Meet account to view the evaluation.

⏰ Spark Hire Meet will automatically send reminder emails to the candidate after 24, 48, 72, and 96 hours.

See assessment step status

When you invite a candidate to a Meet assessment, the candidate list shows a status label with their progress for that step:

  • Assessment: ready to start – The candidate reached the assessment step (and auto-start is off)
  • Assessment: in progress – The candidate was invited and has not submitted yet
  • Assessment: completed – The candidate submitted the assessment
  • Assessment: expired – The deadline passed and the candidate did not submit
