Migrate your Employ data
AI-powered applicant tracking and HR automation platform handling the full hiring lifecycle from job posting through onboarding and compliance verification.
In its favor
Why people choose Employ
The signal that keeps Employ on the shortlist. Sourced from G2, Capterra, and customer scoping calls.
AI Video Interview and AI Recruiter scoring reduce manual screening workload for high-volume hiring teams, with one G2 reviewer noting the feature notably improved hiring quality.
Built-in I-9 and E-Verify automation handles employment eligibility verification within the platform, eliminating the need for a separate compliance tool.
Hiring Process automations eliminate repetitive manual tasks from job posting through candidate tracking, reducing human error in the hiring pipeline.
The platform consolidates the full hiring lifecycle into a single system, replacing multiple point solutions for job boards, tracking, and onboarding.
Task management within the platform is described as extremely intuitive, lowering the learning curve for HR teams adopting the tool.
Employ Inc. is a holding company, not a single product — customers shopping for 'Employ' end up evaluating JazzHR (SMB), Lever (mid-market), Jobvite (enterprise), and NXTThing RPO separately, which slows procurement.
Lever pricing climbs from ~$6,000/year for small teams past $144,000/year for 1,000+ employee orgs, with no public rate card — large variance creates negotiation friction.
Jobvite pricing runs ~$7–$11 per-employee-per-month with annual costs ranging $4,800 to $60,000+ per Pin's analysis, again sales-led with no published rates.
Portfolio overlap (JazzHR + Lever + Jobvite cover much of the same TA scope at different price points) creates internal conflict for buyers evaluating across the Employ family.
Roadmap convergence between the brands is uneven — customers report being unsure which product gets feature priority post-consolidation.

What gets migrated
Employ object support
Object-by-object support for Employ migrations. Per-pair details surface during scoping.
Jobs (Job Postings)
Fully supportedJobs are the primary recruiting object in Employ, holding title, description, department, location, and status. Standard fields are stable and exportable via CSV or API. We map Job ID and posting status to the destination equivalent.
Candidates
Fully supportedCandidates are the core person record in Employ, holding contact information, work history, and AI-generated evaluation data. AI interview scores are stored as metadata on the Candidate. We preserve the full candidate profile including score fields as custom properties in the destination.
Applications
Fully supportedApplications link a Candidate to a Job and track which stage of the hiring pipeline the applicant occupies. We preserve application history, stage timestamps, and any notes attached to the application.
Hiring Pipelines and Stages
Mapping requiredEmploy allows customizable pipeline stages per job. Stage names and counts vary by customer configuration. We map named stages to the destination pipeline stages, flagging any stages with no direct equivalent for manual assignment.
AI Interview Scores
Mapping requiredAI-generated interview evaluations are tied to the Candidate record but not exposed as a standalone object. We extract these as structured fields on the Candidate, which requires field-level mapping to any destination that does not have a native AI score property.
I-9 and E-Verify Records
Mapping requiredEmployment eligibility verification records are associated with the hired Employee. They contain sensitive compliance data. We carry them as encrypted attachments to preserve audit trail integrity during migration.
Employees (Post-Hire)
Mapping requiredOnce a candidate is hired, the record transitions to an Employee object with employment details. We map Employee fields to the destination HRMS, preserving start date, department, manager, and employment status.
Users and Roles
Mapping requiredEmploy assigns Users to roles such as Recruiter, Hiring Manager, and Admin. We extract role assignments and map them to destination role structures, which vary by target platform.
Custom Fields
Mapping requiredEmploy supports custom fields on Jobs, Candidates, and Applications. These require field-level discovery during the scoping phase since there is no published schema documenting which custom fields exist per customer.
Job Board Distributions
Not in this platformJob postings distributed to third-party job boards are tracked as configuration settings in Employ rather than as data records. We do not migrate these configurations as they are destination-specific; we instead recommend re-publishing job postings after migration.
