Overview
Moving from ClearCompany to Recruit CRM is a platform reduction migration: ClearCompany bundles ATS, onboarding, LMS, and performance management while Recruit CRM focuses on ATS and recruitment CRM for staffing and agency use cases. We extract structured records from ClearCompany via its REST API using Bearer token auth, map the talent lifecycle objects to Recruit CRM equivalents, and load candidates and jobs through Recruit CRM's import interface or API with field-level type mapping. We flag three scope gaps upfront during discovery. First, onboarding workflow logic does not migrate as code; the conditional branching and task dependencies are destination-specific and require rebuild in Recruit CRM. Second, LMS content including SCORM packages cannot be imported directly into Recruit CRM's ATS-focused architecture; we deliver a file inventory for the customer's admin to re-upload manually. Third, active integration credentials (ADP, LinkedIn, Indeed) cannot be exported and must be re-established at Recruit CRM. We preserve historical hiring data including candidate profiles, application history, job records, employee information, and custom field values.
Every standard and custom field arrives verified.
AI proposes the map; you confirm before any record moves.
Parent–child, lookups, and ownership stay linked.
Calls, emails, meetings — with original timestamps.
Documents, uploads, and inline notes move with the record.

Object mapping
Each row shows how a ClearCompany object lands in Recruit CRM & ATS, including any object-level transformations, lookup resolution, or schema-design dependencies.
Typical mapping — final map is confirmed during the sample migration step.
ClearCompany
Candidate
Recruit CRM & ATS
Candidate
1:1ClearCompany Candidate records map to Recruit CRM Candidate records with direct field mapping for contact details, application status, source attribution, and custom fields. We preserve the association between candidate history and the original Job record by resolving the job_id reference during import. Any candidate records with duplicate email addresses are flagged in a dedupe report before final insert.
ClearCompany
Job / Position
Recruit CRM & ATS
Job
1:1ClearCompany Job records map to Recruit CRM Job with title, department, location, status (active/closed), and description preserved. The job_to_candidate relationship migrates as candidate application records linked to the imported Job. We map ClearCompany job status values to Recruit CRM status equivalents (Open, On Hold, Closed, Cancelled) during the transform step.
ClearCompany
Employee
Recruit CRM & ATS
Employee
1:1ClearCompany Employee records map to Recruit CRM Employee, including employment details, department assignment, manager reference, start date, and custom properties. We resolve the manager_hierarchy reference using the Employee-to-Employee lookup, and we flag any employees without a resolved manager as an orphan report for the admin to correct before final validation.
ClearCompany
Department
Recruit CRM & ATS
Department / Team
1:1ClearCompany Department records migrate to Recruit CRM Departments or Teams. Parent-child relationships between departments are preserved using Recruit CRM's hierarchical structure. We map department codes and names directly and confirm the org hierarchy depth against Recruit CRM's maximum nesting depth during scoping.
ClearCompany
User
Recruit CRM & ATS
User
1:1ClearCompany User accounts including name, email, role assignment, and active/inactive status map to Recruit CRM Users. We match by email as the dedupe key. Any ClearCompany User without a corresponding email in Recruit CRM is placed in a User reconciliation queue for the admin to provision before record migration continues.
ClearCompany
Custom Field
Recruit CRM & ATS
Custom Field
lossyClearCompany custom fields on Candidates, Employees, and Jobs vary by module and tenant configuration. We discover field definitions during scoping, map field types (text, number, date, picklist, checkbox) to Recruit CRM equivalents, and apply picklist value transformation for constrained fields. Custom fields are created in Recruit CRM before any record import begins to ensure schema consistency.
ClearCompany
Onboarding Workflow
Recruit CRM & ATS
Candidate Note / Activity
1:1ClearCompany onboarding task checklists and new-hire workflow status migrate as Candidate Notes and Activity records in Recruit CRM. The conditional branching and automation logic in ClearCompany workflows does not transfer; we deliver a written task inventory of every onboarding checklist item and its completion status for the admin to reconfigure as Recruit CRM onboarding stages.
ClearCompany
Performance Review
Recruit CRM & ATS
Employee Note / Custom Field
1:1Performance review records, goals, and ratings migrate as read-only Employee Notes or as values in custom fields if the review fields map to structured picklists. Review templates and rating scales from ClearCompany are captured as a configuration document for the customer to rebuild in Recruit CRM's custom field builder or as a separate evaluation form.
ClearCompany
Learning Course / SCORM Package
Recruit CRM & ATS
File Attachment (no native LMS)
1:1ClearCompany LMS content including courses, learning paths, and SCORM packages cannot be imported into Recruit CRM because Recruit CRM does not include a native LMS. We export the course metadata as a CSV inventory and flag SCORM packages as files requiring manual upload to the customer's chosen LMS post-migration. Learning path relationships and completion records migrate as Employee Notes for audit reference.
ClearCompany
Document / Attachment
Recruit CRM & ATS
Attachment
1:1Documents attached to Candidate, Employee, and Job records migrate as Attachments in Recruit CRM linked to the corresponding record via the object_id reference. We export file content by URL or direct download during extraction, flag any files exceeding Recruit CRM's size threshold, and deliver a file inventory with parent record reference for the admin to verify post-migration.
ClearCompany
Integration Reference Data
Recruit CRM & ATS
Integration Configuration (manual rebuild)
1:1Integration configurations including connected job boards, assessment vendors, and payroll providers are exported as reference data for documentation purposes. Active integration credentials cannot be exported for security reasons. We deliver an integration map listing every connected system (ADP, LinkedIn, Indeed, assessment vendors) with the reconnect steps required, and the customer's admin re-authenticates each integration in Recruit CRM post-migration.

Migration approach
Discovery and record scope definition
We audit the source ClearCompany portal for active modules (ATS, onboarding, LMS, performance), record volumes per object type (Candidates, Employees, Jobs, custom fields), and any SCORM packages in the LMS. We define migration filters with the customer (closed job age threshold, inactive candidate cutoff, employee retention scope) to minimize total record count and cost. The discovery output is a written migration scope with record counts, a filter rationale, and a flag for any SCORM or onboarding workflow content requiring separate handling.
Schema discovery and Recruit CRM setup
We inspect ClearCompany's custom field definitions per module and map field types to Recruit CRM equivalents. We create the corresponding custom fields in Recruit CRM before any record import begins, including picklist value sets, date formats, and numeric constraints. We configure Departments, Teams, and User roles in Recruit CRM to match the cleared organizational structure from ClearCompany.
Data quality assessment and dedupe report
We run a pre-migration data quality check across all record types, generating a duplicate Candidate report (by email), an incomplete record report (missing required fields), and a formatting audit (inconsistent date formats, unformatted custom field values). We deliver the report to the customer's HR ops lead for correction before migration. Any dedupe decisions (which record wins on email collision) are confirmed in writing before we proceed to extraction.
Extraction, transform, and load
We extract records from ClearCompany via its REST API using Bearer token auth with rate-limit handling and exponential backoff. The transform step applies the custom field mapping, status value translation, and dedupe resolution. The load step imports Jobs and Departments first (parent records), then Employees, then Candidates (resolving the job_id reference), then Attachments. We use Recruit CRM's CSV import or API depending on record volume and field complexity. Each phase emits a row-count reconciliation report before the next phase begins.
Onboarding and LMS content inventory delivery
We deliver three separate inventory documents. The onboarding task inventory lists every checklist item and its completion status per candidate or employee from ClearCompany. The SCORM file inventory lists every LMS package with file reference and metadata for manual re-upload. The integration reconnect guide lists every active integration (ADP, LinkedIn, Indeed, assessment vendors) with re-authentication steps. We do not rebuild workflows, re-upload SCORM content, or re-establish integrations as part of the standard migration scope.
Cutover, delta migration, and validation
We freeze ClearCompany writes during cutover, run a final delta migration of any records created or modified during the migration window, then confirm Recruit CRM as the system of record. We validate a statistical sample of migrated records against the source and deliver the final reconciliation report. We support a five-business-day hypercare window for reconciliation issues raised by the recruiting team.
