Overview
Moving from CVWarehouse to Recruit CRM is a multi-database consolidation, not a direct record copy. CVWarehouse stores separate talent pools per brand or location, meaning a single logical candidate may appear in multiple databases. We run email-based de-duplication across those pools before writing to Recruit CRM, preserving the most complete profile per candidate. CVWarehouse has no documented public REST or bulk export API, so we coordinate a structured data dump through the admin UI or CSV export, batching large record sets to avoid timeout. Selection Rounds with non-standard stage names route through a customer-confirmed mapping table before migration. We do not migrate built-in Reports or Workflows as code; we deliver a written inventory for the customer's admin to rebuild in Recruit CRM.
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 CVWarehouse 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.
CVWarehouse
Vacancy
Recruit CRM & ATS
Job
1:1CVWarehouse Vacancies map to Recruit CRM Jobs. Job title, location, department, employment type, and description fields transfer directly. Custom Vacancy Template fields (shared or account-level) map to Recruit CRM associated custom fields via field_id lookup after we retrieve the destination field structure during scoping. We flag any Vacancy with missing required Recruit CRM fields and route them to a reconciliation queue before migration begins.
CVWarehouse
Candidate
Recruit CRM & ATS
Candidate
1:1CVWarehouse Candidates map to Recruit CRM Candidates with contact info, work history, education, and free-form notes transferred to the equivalent Candidate profile fields. CVWarehouse stores candidates across separate databases per brand or location, so we run cross-database de-duplication using email address as the primary key before writing. The most complete profile (most fields populated) wins for each unique email address, and duplicates are flagged for customer review.
CVWarehouse
Application
Recruit CRM & ATS
Job Application
1:1A CVWarehouse Application links a Candidate to a Vacancy and tracks submission date and source channel. We map this to Recruit CRM's candidate-job association, preserving the application source (referral, job board, direct) as a custom field. The Application status (applied, screened, interviewed, rejected, offer, hired) maps to the corresponding Recruit CRM application status value.
CVWarehouse
Selection Round
Recruit CRM & ATS
Pipeline Stage / Interview Stage
1:manyCVWarehouse Selection Rounds define interview stages with reviewer assignments and configurable stage names per Vacancy. Each Selection Round becomes a Recruit CRM pipeline stage entry against the candidate's application record. We build a routing table of all existing CVWarehouse stage names and ask the customer to confirm the equivalent Recruit CRM stage during scoping. Stages without a confirmed mapping go to a customer-review queue.
CVWarehouse
Scorecard and Rating
Recruit CRM & ATS
Candidate Evaluation
1:1Interviewer scorecards and structured ratings stored per Selection Round map to Recruit CRM's evaluation or rating object. We map score values, reviewer name, and feedback comments to the equivalent fields. If Recruit CRM does not support structured scoring for the customer's tier, we store the scorecard data as a custom Note attached to the candidate record with a standardized prefix for identification.
CVWarehouse
Attachment
Recruit CRM & ATS
Document Attachment
1:1CVWarehouse stores CVs, cover letters, and portfolio files per Candidate or Application. We export these as binary blobs and write them to Recruit CRM's document attachment field, preserving the original file name and MIME type. File size and count are logged during scoping; files exceeding Recruit CRM's attachment size limit are flagged for the customer to decide whether to link via external URL instead.
CVWarehouse
Vacancy Template
Recruit CRM & ATS
Custom Job Fields
lossyOrganizations using CVWarehouse Vacancy Templates have custom or shared fields that vary per account. These require explicit field mapping during scoping because they are not standard across accounts. We retrieve the full Vacancy Template field list from the source data dump, map each to a Recruit CRM associated custom field or standard Job field, and configure the destination field schema before migration. Any template field with no Recruit CRM equivalent is noted for customer decision.
CVWarehouse
User
Recruit CRM & ATS
User
1:1CVWarehouse recruiters, hiring managers, and administrators with role-based access map to Recruit CRM Users. We match by email address and map role names to the closest Recruit CRM permission equivalent. Users without a matching email in the destination are held in a reconciliation queue for the customer to provision before record import resumes.
CVWarehouse
Company
Recruit CRM & ATS
Client
1:1CVWarehouse stores company records associated with Vacancies or as stand-alone records. These map to Recruit CRM Clients with company name, industry, website, and address transferred. Client records are created before candidate records that reference them so that the Client-Candidate association is satisfied at insert time.
CVWarehouse
Reports and Analytics
Recruit CRM & ATS
Not Migrated
1:1CVWarehouse reporting is UI-based and does not expose a documented analytics export API. We do not migrate built-in reports. We deliver a written inventory of CVWarehouse report names, filters, and scheduled recipients for the customer's admin to configure equivalent reports in Recruit CRM post-migration.
CVWarehouse
Workflow and Automation
Recruit CRM & ATS
Not Migrated
1:1CVWarehouse workflows, automation rules, and email sequences do not have documented migration paths to Recruit CRM's automation model. We do not migrate them as code. We deliver a written inventory of every active CVWarehouse workflow with its trigger, conditions, and actions, plus a recommended Recruit CRM automation equivalent. The customer's admin rebuilds them post-migration.

Gotchas + challenges
Platform-specific issues from each side, plus the pair-specific challenges that don't show up on either platform's page on its own.
CVWarehouse gotchas
No documented public REST API for bulk exports
Separate databases per brand or location fragment candidate pools
Per-feature pricing creates tier ambiguity at migration time
Acquisition by BCS introduces roadmap uncertainty
Selection Round data depends on non-standard stage names
Recruit CRM & ATS gotchas
API rate limits are license-scaled and can throttle bulk migration
Custom field schemas vary per organization and require field-level mapping
Files and email attachments require separate extraction and re-upload
Email sequences and automation logic do not transfer between platforms
Pair-specific challenges
Migration approach
Discovery and export confirmation
We audit the CVWarehouse account across databases, Vacancies, Candidate volume, Application count, Selection Round stage names, Vacancy Template field lists, and attachment volume. We confirm with the customer and their CVWarehouse CSM that a full data export is available via admin UI or CSV dump. If CVWarehouse cannot produce an export within the scoping window, we adjust timeline expectations. We pair this with a Recruit CRM account audit to identify the destination field schema and any tier constraints on attachment storage or custom field counts.
Cross-database de-duplication and candidate consolidation
We load all CVWarehouse candidate records across all separate databases into a staging environment. We run email-based de-duplication, flagging records where the same email appears in multiple databases with different completeness levels. The customer reviews ambiguous records (same email, different names or profiles) and decides which to retain. We produce a clean, consolidated candidate dataset before writing to Recruit CRM.
Field mapping and stage routing table
We map CVWarehouse Vacancy fields to Recruit CRM Job fields, Vacancy Template custom fields to Recruit CRM associated custom fields, and Selection Round stage names to Recruit CRM pipeline stage values. The customer confirms the stage routing table during a scoping call. We also map CVWarehouse application status values to Recruit CRM application status values and scorecard fields to Recruit CRM evaluation fields.
Schema preparation and sandbox migration
We configure the Recruit CRM destination schema including custom fields (with field_id retrieval), pipeline stages, user roles, and client records. We run a sandbox migration using a representative subset of data to validate field mappings, attachment handling, and de-duplication logic. The customer spot-checks 25-50 records against the CVWarehouse source and signs off before production migration begins.
Production migration in dependency order
We run production migration in record-dependency order: Users (validated against Recruit CRM User table), Clients (from CVWarehouse Companies), Jobs (from CVWarehouse Vacancies), Candidates (consolidated from all databases with de-duplication applied), Job Applications (linking Candidates to Jobs), Pipeline Stages (from Selection Rounds with routing table applied), Evaluations (from Scorecards), and Attachments (binary files written last with size validation). Each phase emits a row-count reconciliation report before the next phase begins.
Cutover, validation, and workflow handoff
We freeze CVWarehouse write access during cutover, run a final delta migration of any records modified during the migration window, then enable Recruit CRM as the system of record. We deliver the Workflow and Report inventory document to the customer's admin team. We support a one-week hypercare window where we resolve any reconciliation issues. We do not rebuild CVWarehouse workflows as Recruit CRM automations inside the migration scope; that is a separate engagement or an internal admin task.
