When you import a job from Greenhouse a connection is made between the job in Greenhouse and the job in SquarePeg. Besides allowing SquarePeg to import your job description, this also ensures that all candidates sourced by SquarePeg are exported to the correct Greenhouse job.

Before using the integration
If your Greenhouse job doesn’t have a public job post, SquarePeg will not be able to import a job description. However, SquarePeg will still import the job title and ensure that candidates are exported to the selected job in Greenhouse.
Importing a job from Greenhouse
- Click Add New Job from the dashboard
- Select a job from Greenhouse in the dropdown.
If you have multiple jobs with the same title, you can use the “Display IDs” option to show the unique job identifier from Greenhouse. Comparing the ID shown in SquarePeg to the ID in Greenhouse will help you identify the correct job.
- Click Next and your job description will be imported.
The import process should take 8-12 seconds (occasionally this takes longer during peak usage.) SquarePeg uses OpenAI’s GPT to ensure your job description is formatted optimally for SquarePeg’s application page. Although we instruct the AI not to paraphrase or omit anything from the job description, it’s important that you review your job description for accuracy and to ensure the correct formatting.
Exporting candidates to Greenhouse
SquarePeg’s matching algorithm automatically scores all applicants. However, a human reviewer ultimately decides which applicants are recommended by SquarePeg.
You do not have to log into SquarePeg to review applicants. When an applicant is recommended by SquarePeg, it will automatically be exported to Greenhouse. The same applicant will also appear under the Applications tab for the connected job in SquarePeg.
By default, SquarePeg only shows you the most qualified applicants. However, using the toggle on the Applications tab you can view all applicants regardless of qualifications or fit. Enabling this toggle will show you everyone who has applied for your job.
Although you don’t have to log into SquarePeg to review applicants when Greenhouse is connected, you still can. Whenever you approve a candidate in SquarePeg it will automatically be exported to Greenhouse (if it wasn’t already) and moved to the “approval stage” in Greenhouse (if mapped.)
Future enhancements
We have plans to enhance the Greenhouse integration in the future. (Importing more than just the job description, allowing users to customize stage mapping between Greenhouse and SquarePeg, etc.) If you have ideas on how we could make this integration better, please schedule time with our product team. We’d love to hear from you!
