Workable + TrueHire: Skill-First Screening for Every Role

Move a Workable candidate to your assessment stage and TrueHire takes it from there — invites, scoring, integrity reports, and an automatic move to interviews on pass.

How the Workable integration works

Bidirectional, webhook-driven sync — no spreadsheets, no copy-paste.

1. Connect with a Workable API token

In Workable Integrations, generate an API token with the right scopes and paste it into TrueHire along with your subdomain (https://your-company.workable.com/spi/v3).

2. Sync jobs and stages

TrueHire pulls every published Workable job by shortcode and the stage slugs for each one so you can build clean mappings instead of hand-typing identifiers.

3. Webhook trigger on candidate move

Add the TrueHire webhook URL in Workable. When a candidate is moved into a configured stage, TrueHire emails the assessment invite within seconds.

4. Reports posted back to the candidate

On submission TrueHire posts a Workable comment with the score breakdown, uploads the PDF report as a candidate file, and (with auto-advance enabled) moves the candidate to the configured next stage.

What you get with Workable + TrueHire

Everything you need to automate skills screening without leaving your ATS.

Auto-trigger assessments from a stage change

When a candidate enters a configured Workable stage — say "Coding Challenge" — TrueHire creates an assignment and emails the invite link automatically. No copy-paste, no manual handoff.

Push results back to the candidate record

After the candidate submits, TrueHire posts a summary note on the Workable candidate record, attaches the full PDF report, and (optionally) advances them to a pass or fail stage based on a score threshold you set.

One source of truth for the recruiter

Recruiters never leave Workable. The score, integrity report, and a deep link to the full TrueHire result land where they already work.

Per-job, per-stage configuration

Map each Workable job and stage to a different TrueHire test. A senior backend role can use a different assessment from a junior frontend role — all from one settings panel.

Setup in 15 minutes

Step-by-step setup for an admin with API access in your ATS.

  1. 1

    In Workable, navigate to Integrations → Access tokens and create a token with read/write access to candidates, comments, uploads, stages, and the move endpoint.

  2. 2

    In TrueHire, open Settings → Integrations, choose Workable, paste the token, and set the base URL to https://<your-subdomain>.workable.com/spi/v3.

  3. 3

    Click Test to verify and Sync Jobs to import your published jobs and stages.

  4. 4

    Add stage mappings: choose the job (shortcode), trigger stage, TrueHire test, pass threshold, and pass/fail destination stages.

  5. 5

    Copy the webhook URL from TrueHire and add it in Workable Integrations → Webhooks for "Candidate moved" / "Candidate created".

  6. 6

    Move a real candidate into your trigger stage to verify the invite, scoring, and pushback all work.

Authentication uses a Workable bearer API token. Workable webhooks aren't HMAC-signed, so TrueHire verifies them with a unique URL-embedded secret per integration.

Frequently asked questions

How long does the Workable integration take to set up?

Most teams are live in under 15 minutes. You generate an API key in Workable, paste it into TrueHire, click "Sync jobs" to pull your job + stage list, then map the stages that should trigger assessments.

Does TrueHire support webhooks from Workable?

Yes. Each integration gets a unique webhook URL with a signed secret. Paste it into your Workable webhook settings and TrueHire will react in real time when candidates change stages.

Will candidates know they came from the ATS?

No. The candidate sees a normal TrueHire invite email branded with your organisation name. The link points to the same secure assessment portal they would have received from a manual invite.

Can I roll back auto-advance if a hiring manager disagrees with the score?

Yes. Auto-advance is an opt-in toggle per integration, and recruiters can move the candidate back manually in the ATS at any time. The TrueHire result stays attached either way.

Is the integration available on every plan?

ATS integrations are an Enterprise-plan feature. Talk to our team if you need a trial on the Enterprise tier to evaluate the workflow.
