Overview
Moving from hireEZ to Recruit CRM is primarily a candidate-database migration constrained by hireEZ's lack of a public API. Export options are limited to project-level CSV downloads from the UI or Enterprise Auto Sync to a connected ATS. If the customer runs a connected ATS (Greenhouse, Lever, Bullhorn), we pull candidate records through that system. Otherwise we sequence project-level CSV exports, deduplicate on email for records synced bidirectionally, and validate contact data against standard deliverability patterns before loading into Recruit CRM. We preserve talent pool membership as Recruit CRM Lists, map hireEZ project stages to Recruit CRM pipeline stages, and migrate engagement history (email opens, clicks, InMail views, scheduling events) as candidate activities. Outreach sequences, campaign step logic, and EZ Agent task assignments do not export because they are tied to hireEZ's internal automation infrastructure; we document the sequence inventory for the customer's team to rebuild in Recruit CRM. Pricing on the destination is substantially lower ($95-259 per user per month on transparent published tiers) compared to hireEZ's $169-240 per seat on annual-only contracts with reported renewal increases of 50% or more.

Object mapping
Each row shows how a hireEZ 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.
hireEZ
Candidate
Recruit CRM & ATS
Candidate
1:1hireEZ candidate profiles (contact details, work history, skills, education, and enrichment data) map directly to Recruit CRM candidate records. We use candidate email as the canonical dedupe key. We validate email addresses against standard deliverability patterns before import: addresses failing format checks (missing @, invalid domain, no MX record) are flagged in a pre-import reconciliation report for customer review before candidate records are committed to Recruit CRM. Credit-based enrichment flags (stale data from records last enriched mid-billing-cycle) are preserved in a custom field for the customer's review.
hireEZ
Project (Job Requisition)
Recruit CRM & ATS
Job
1:1hireEZ Projects store requisition metadata including job title, department, location, salary range, priority, and pipeline stage assignments. We map these directly to Recruit CRM Job records. Project-to-candidate associations are preserved as candidate-job assignments in Recruit CRM's pipeline view, maintaining the hiring context that candidates were sourced under.
hireEZ
Job Requisition
Recruit CRM & ATS
Job
1:1Job Requisition records from hireEZ map to Recruit CRM Jobs with the same metadata (title, department, location, salary range, priority). We map hireEZ stage assignments to Recruit CRM pipeline stages, which are configurable per job. The customer configures pipeline stages in Recruit CRM during setup; we document the source stage assignments for stage mapping.
hireEZ
Talent Pool
Recruit CRM & ATS
List
1:manyhireEZ talent pools are named collections of candidates grouped by skill, role, or talent community. We export pool membership as candidate-to-pool relationships and map these to Recruit CRM Lists. A candidate can belong to multiple Recruit CRM Lists, matching the many-to-many relationship in hireEZ. Pool names and candidate membership counts are preserved in List descriptions for reference.
hireEZ
Automated Campaign (email, SMS, InMail)
Recruit CRM & ATS
Candidate Communication Log
1:1hireEZ Automated Campaigns store outreach sequences across email, SMS, and LinkedIn InMail. We migrate campaign membership (which candidates were added to which campaigns) and candidate engagement history (opens, clicks, replies, InMail views, scheduling events) as candidate activities in Recruit CRM. Campaign step logic, sequence step definitions, step timing, and outreach cadence states do not export because they are tied to hireEZ's internal messaging infrastructure. We deliver a written campaign inventory with each sequence's steps, timing, and recommended Recruit CRM automation rebuild approach.
hireEZ
Candidate Activity (email opens, clicks, replies, InMail views)
Recruit CRM & ATS
Candidate Activity Log
1:1Activity logs from hireEZ capture email opens, clicks, replies, InMail views, and scheduling events tied to candidates and projects. We preserve the full activity timeline per candidate in Recruit CRM's activity log with original timestamps. Timestamp formats may vary by ATS integration source; we normalize to ISO 8601 before import.
hireEZ
Interview Event
Recruit CRM & ATS
Interview / Calendar Event
1:1Interview scheduling events and calendar sync records from hireEZ are preserved as interview entries linked to the corresponding candidate and job in Recruit CRM. Scheduling metadata (interviewer, date, time, meeting link or location) migrates directly. Note: a Reddit thread for Recruit CRM users identifies that deleted meetings do not sync back to Google Calendar, a platform-level limitation we document for the customer's awareness but do not resolve in migration scope.
hireEZ
Custom Candidate Property
Recruit CRM & ATS
Custom Candidate Field
1:1Custom fields on hireEZ candidate profiles vary by customer configuration. We discover all custom properties during scoping, map them to equivalent Recruit CRM custom fields (Text, Number, Date, Dropdown, or Multi-select based on data type), and flag any properties with no matching target field in Recruit CRM for customer resolution before migration.
hireEZ
ATS Integration / Auto Sync record
Recruit CRM & ATS
Candidate (deduplicated)
1:1Enterprise customers using hireEZ Auto Sync with a connected ATS (Greenhouse, Lever, Bullhorn, iCIMS, Workday) may have candidate records created or updated through bidirectional sync. These records may have conflicting IDs or duplicate email addresses across hireEZ and the ATS. We deduplicate on candidate email, resolve the most recent update timestamp as authoritative, and flag records with ambiguous merge candidates for customer review before import.
hireEZ
Analytics and Reports (native dashboards)
Recruit CRM & ATS
Reporting Data (source records)
lossyhireEZ native analytics dashboards and reports do not export in transferable format. We migrate the underlying funnel data (source, stage, hire dates, pipeline timestamps) as candidate and job record fields, enabling Recruit CRM's native reporting to reconstruct the funnel. Dashboard-level visualizations must be rebuilt by the customer's team in Recruit CRM's reporting module.

Migration approach
Discovery and export method confirmation
We audit the hireEZ environment across all projects, talent pools, candidate record volume, and any connected ATS integration. We confirm whether the customer has a connected ATS (Greenhouse, Lever, Bullhorn, Workday, iCIMS) that we can use for primary extraction, or whether UI-based project CSV export is the only available method. We also identify custom candidate properties, active automated campaigns with sequence step definitions, and the full activity history volume per candidate. The discovery output is a written migration scope document specifying export method, record counts, and dependency order.
Export sequencing and deduplication planning
If the connected ATS is the extraction source, we pull candidate records through the ATS API using bulk export. If UI-based CSV is required, we sequence project-level exports in parallel batches, collecting each CSV and consolidating into a unified candidate master set. We deduplicate on candidate email, flagging records from bidirectional ATS sync that have conflicting IDs or timestamps. We also run email deliverability validation against format and MX record checks and produce a pre-import reconciliation report for the customer's review of high-risk contact records.
Recruit CRM schema setup and field mapping
We configure the Recruit CRM destination environment: custom candidate fields (matched to discovered hireEZ custom properties), pipeline stages (mapped from hireEZ project stage assignments), and Lists (created to mirror hireEZ talent pool structure). We document every field mapping in a written field map that the customer's Recruit CRM admin reviews and approves before data load begins. We also confirm the customer's desired Recruit CRM pipeline configuration for each job type migrating from hireEZ.
Staging migration and reconciliation
We run a full migration into Recruit CRM using a test environment or limited record set (10-20% sample) to validate the field mapping, deduplication results, email validation outcomes, and List membership assignments. The customer's team spot-checks 25-50 randomly selected candidates against the hireEZ source records and signs off the staging results. Any mapping corrections, custom field additions, or deduplication rule adjustments are applied before production migration begins.
Production migration in dependency order
We run production migration in record-dependency order: Jobs (from hireEZ Projects and Job Requisitions), Candidates (with email dedup applied and contact data validated), Talent Pools (as Recruit CRM Lists with membership), candidate-job assignments, and engagement history (activity timeline with original timestamps preserved). Campaign membership and sequence engagement history are imported as candidate activities. We run each phase with a row-count reconciliation report before the next phase begins.
Cutover, validation, and campaign inventory handoff
We freeze writes in hireEZ during the cutover window and run a final delta migration of any records modified during the migration period. We then enable Recruit CRM as the system of record and deliver the automated campaign inventory document listing each hireEZ sequence's steps, cadence, and recommended Recruit CRM rebuild approach. We support a one-week hypercare window for reconciliation issues and do not rebuild outreach sequences or hiring workflows as part of the migration scope.
