As a job board or recruiting agency, tracking your candidate’s application status is crucial. At Kombo, we offer a streamlined solution for application status tracking and compliant, efficient data synchronization across all supported integrations.

​
Outcome detection

Kombo’s outcome detection categorizes the application based on your customer’s hiring decision. Our system lets you stay informed about each of your submitted candidates, allowing you to track the candidates you submitted more accurately in your customer’s system.

This is especially useful, because most ATS systems expose the application outcome in no unified way (stages, booleans, dates, statuses, etc.). Kombo abstracts away this complexity and offers a unified outcome for every application.

​
Syncing only created candidates

To reduce the amount of data that needs to be synchronized, Kombo keeps track of candidates created by your integration, and only syncs those applicants. By default, this feature is enabled for all customers of Kombo.

If you don’t need to read candidates other than the ones created by you, we recommend keeping this setting on. Syncing all candidates can have a big impact on sync times and the amount of data you need to process. Only syncing created applicants also reduces the amount of data that is exposed, and therefore improves compliance.

This feature can be turned off on this page of the Kombo dashboard.

🔭 That means, when connecting a new customer, you will initially receive an empty array for the candidates and applications (until you create an application or candidate through the Kombo API).
