Introduction for clients


Care Friends uses a third-party integration platform called Merge ( merge.dev ) to build, manage and maintain our integrations with applicant tracking systems. This allows us to provide integrations with a much large number of ATSs than if we custom0built each integration individually.

How does the integration work?


All data flow in the integration is uni-directional

This sketch cannot currently be displayed in exports
    .1Jobs created in the ATS are pushed through to Care Friends. Any of the job fields can be edited in Care Friends. These edits WILL NOT sync back to the ATS. Jobs are activated individually in Care Friends and become available for staff to share.
    .2Staff share the jobs and new candidates express interest as they do in a non-integrated system. When the candidate is created in Care Friends, a new candidate and associated application is also created in the ATS. The exact status of the new candidate in the ATS will depend upon the specific ATS.
    .3When the status of a candidate is updated in the ATS, the status update is pushed through into Care Friends and the candidate is updated in Care Friends. Points and/or notifications are sent to the referrer as if the candidate had been updated within Care Friends.
    .4* The 'Still in Post' milestone will not be tracked by the ATS, so that stage will still need to be updated within Care Friends itself.
Candidate updates made in Care Friends WILL NOT push through to the ATS
