Migrate your Jobvite data
End-to-end talent acquisition platform covering recruiting, onboarding, and internal mobility for mid-market and enterprise teams navigating complex hiring.
In its favor
Why people choose Jobvite
The signal that keeps Jobvite on the shortlist. Sourced from G2, Capterra, and customer scoping calls.
Lowest barrier to entry for teams needing a full hiring stack without committing to a monolithic ERP-style suite — the modular add-on model lets mid-market teams start with core ATS and add onboarding or AI Interview Companion later.
Named a Leader in the IDC MarketScape Worldwide Modern Talent Acquisition Suites 2022 assessment, which gives procurement teams a credible benchmark for enterprise suitability without requiring a multi-vendor RFP.
Integrated analytics module included at every tier means teams do not need to purchase a separate BI tool to report on time-to-hire, source effectiveness, or pipeline velocity.
SOC 2 Type II certified since 2016, addressing compliance requirements for enterprise customers handling candidate PII without requiring additional security questionnaires.
Collaborative hiring features (hiring team notes, scorecards, structured interviews) reduce misalignment between recruiters and hiring managers on the same candidate record.
Limited candidate management at scale — G2 reviews cite difficulty managing high-volume applicant pools, with no native bulk-action tooling for outreach or status updates across hundreds of records.
Steep learning curve reported by new users, particularly around understanding how Pipeline Stages, Job Workflows, and Offer Letters interact — requires dedicated admin training before teams become productive.
Lack of clarity in reporting and analytics dashboards leaves recruiters guessing about pipeline health; G2 reviewers describe the reporting UI as opaque and requiring custom exports to get actionable data.
Restricted customization outside of custom fields — G2 reviewers note the platform does not allow changes to core workflow logic, field labels, or object relationships without professional services involvement.
Text messaging (SMS) consent handling requires manual account-level action to prevent service disruption, creating a maintenance burden for recruitment marketing teams.

What gets migrated
Jobvite object support
Object-by-object support for Jobvite migrations. Per-pair details surface during scoping.
Jobs
Fully supportedJobs is the primary container object in Jobvite. We migrate all published and archived job postings including descriptions, requirements, and department/location assignments. Active Posting status is preserved as a boolean field so the destination does not re-publish unpublished roles unintentionally.
Candidates
Fully supportedCandidates are the person records separate from Applications. We preserve name, contact info, work history, education, skills, and SMS consent status. Where the destination uses a combined Contact/Lead model, we merge Candidate fields into a single record and flag the original source as a custom property.
Applications
Fully supportedApplications link a Candidate to a Job at a specific Pipeline Stage. We preserve the stage history, rejection reasons, advancement dates, and interviewer assignments. Stage names are mapped explicitly to the destination pipeline since Jobvite allows custom stage naming.
Pipeline Stages
Mapping requiredPipeline Stages are configurable per Job in Jobvite. We extract the stage definitions and map them to the destination system's pipeline stages, flagging any non-standard stages (e.g., background check, offer approval) that may require manual re-creation or custom field workarounds.
Custom Fields
Mapping requiredBoth Candidates and Jobs support custom fields in Jobvite. Custom field definitions (label, type, picklist values) are exported from the schema and mapped to the destination's equivalent custom field infrastructure. Picklist values require explicit cross-referencing to avoid silently dropping non-matching values.
Users and Hiring Team
Mapping requiredUsers in Jobvite include Recruiters, Hiring Managers, and Interviewers with role-based permissions. We map active users to the destination system and preserve role assignments. Owner/User assignment on Applications is transferred as a reference so the destination can resolve it against its own user list.
Offers
Mapping requiredOffers are tied to an Application and include compensation details, start date, and approval status. Approval history is preserved as a log rather than a live workflow record, since the destination system will have its own offer approval process.
Onboarding Records
Mapping requiredOnboarding is a separate module that may or may not be active in a given Jobvite account. If active, we export onboarding task lists, new hire paperwork status, I-9/E-Verify records, and assigned onboarding checklists. These are treated as configuration data mapping to the destination's equivalent module.
Documents and Attachments
Mapping requiredResumes, cover letters, portfolio files, and signed offer documents are stored as attachments on Candidates and Applications. We export binary blobs alongside their metadata (filename, upload date, attached-to object ID). Some destinations require separate document ingestion tooling; we flag this in the scoping call.
Recruitment Marketing (Talemetry)
Mapping requiredLists, Campaigns, and Source tracking from the Talemetry module added to Jobvite in 2019 exist as a separate data layer. These are migrated as Marketing Lists and Campaign associations on the Candidate record. Source attribution (referral, job board, agency) is preserved as a Candidate property.
Analytics and Reports
Not in this platformJobvite Analytics is a reporting module that aggregates pipeline data into visualizations and scheduled reports. The underlying data is fully covered by migrating Jobs, Candidates, Applications, and Pipeline Stages. The report configurations themselves are not exported as they are built on Jobvite-specific dashboard tooling.
