Overview

What this migration involves

Moving from Jobylon to Recruit CRM is a structural shift from a webhook-driven, enterprise-focused ATS to an agency-oriented ATS/CRM with stronger workflow automation and per-job custom field support. Jobylon's alpha-status Partner API has no bulk export endpoint, so migrations run at 100 requests per minute through a pull model with throttling. We conduct per-company schema discovery to capture Jobylon's per-company custom field definitions, then map stage names, lost-reason classifications, scorecard ratings, and application histories into Recruit CRM's job-associated field system. We do not migrate workflows, automations, or offer letter document content; we deliver a written inventory of active workflows for your team to rebuild in Recruit CRM's drag-and-drop automation builder. Historical timestamps on Applications, stage transitions, and assessor feedback are preserved to maintain your hiring audit trail.

Field-level fidelity

Every standard and custom field arrives verified.

Schema-aware mapping

AI proposes the map; you confirm before any record moves.

Relationships preserved

Parent–child, lookups, and ownership stay linked.

Full activity history

Calls, emails, meetings — with original timestamps.

Attachments & notes

Documents, uploads, and inline notes move with the record.

Why teams make this switch

Two sides of the same decision

Leaving

What's pushing teams away

  • Some customers find the analytics and reporting dashboard less deep than competitors such as Lever, limiting their ability to generate custom hiring reports without third-party tools.
  • The Partner API is explicitly described as alpha-status with a limited feature set, making it harder for technical teams to build bespoke integrations or validate migration completeness independently.
  • Customers seeking advanced AI features like predictive candidate scoring or automated ranking may find Jobylon's AI tooling insufficient compared to platforms with mature ML-driven sourcing.

Choosing

Recruit CRM & ATS logo

Recruit CRM & ATS

What's pulling them in

  • Agencies choose Recruit CRM for its full customizability — pipelines, stages, and fields can be tailored to any recruitment workflow without developer involvement.
  • Small teams value the built-in CRM and ATS combined in one subscription, eliminating the need to purchase and sync separate systems.
  • The Chrome extension for one-click LinkedIn profile collection streamlines candidate sourcing and reduces manual data entry for recruiters.
  • Responsive customer support with fast issue resolution is consistently cited as a reason teams stick with the platform long-term.
  • Automation options including email sequences and workflow triggers allow recruitment agencies to reduce repetitive manual outreach tasks.

Object mapping

How Jobylon objects map to Recruit CRM & ATS

Each row shows how a Jobylon 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.

Jobylon

Job

maps to

Recruit CRM & ATS

Job

1:1
Fully supported

Jobylon Jobs map to Recruit CRM Jobs as the primary record container. Standard fields (title, department, location, description) transfer directly. Per-company custom fields defined at /config/companies/{companyId}/job require pre-migration schema discovery; we query the configuration endpoint per company, then map each custom field to Recruit CRM's job-associated custom fields, preserving the original field label and data type. Active and inactive job status migrates as-is.

Jobylon

Application

maps to

Recruit CRM & ATS

Candidate Job Application

1:1
Fully supported

Jobylon Applications link a Candidate to a Job and track workflow status through pipeline stages. We migrate the full stage-history timeline with timestamps, preserving stage names as a custom field if they do not map to a Recruit CRM pipeline stage. Application status (active, inactive, withdrawn, rejected) maps to Recruit CRM's candidate job application status field. Lost reasons from inactive stages migrate as tagged properties on the application record.

Jobylon

Candidate

maps to

Recruit CRM & ATS

Candidate

1:1
Fully supported

Jobylon Candidate records map to Recruit CRM Candidates with email used as the primary dedupe key. Where a Candidate has multiple Applications in Jobylon, we merge application histories under a single Recruit CRM Candidate record. GDPR-related fields (consent flags, erasure dates) carry as custom properties unless Recruit CRM's native GDPR fields are available on the customer's plan. Multi-language candidate data migrates without transformation.

Jobylon

Pipeline Stage

maps to

Recruit CRM & ATS

Pipeline Stage

lossy
Fully supported

Jobylon's free-text pipeline stages per job do not map directly to a standardised Recruit CRM stage set. We conduct a discovery pass to collect every distinct stage name across all pipelines, then map each to the closest Recruit CRM pipeline stage equivalent. Unmapped stage names preserve as a custom field on the candidate job application record for audit. The customer reviews and approves the stage map before migration begins.

Jobylon

Scorecard

maps to

Recruit CRM & ATS

Candidate Evaluation / Rating

1:1
Fully supported

Jobylon Scorecards tied to pipeline stages record evaluator ratings and assessor feedback. We export the scorecard schema, rating values, evaluator name, and timestamp. Recruit CRM's candidate rating and evaluation system receives these as structured entries linked to the candidate job application. If the customer uses a custom scorecard template, we map the template fields to Recruit CRM custom fields on the job.

Jobylon

User

maps to

Recruit CRM & ATS

User

1:1
Fully supported

Jobylon Users (recruiters, hiring managers, admins) map to Recruit CRM Users by email match. We resolve the owner reference on Jobs, Applications, and scorecards to the corresponding Recruit CRM User. Any Jobylon User without a matching Recruit CRM User enters a reconciliation queue for the customer's admin to provision before record import continues.

Jobylon

Lost Reason

maps to

Recruit CRM & ATS

Status Note / Custom Field

lossy
Fully supported

Jobylon Lost Reasons are predefined classification labels assigned when an Application moves to an inactive stage. These have no native Recruit CRM equivalent as a standalone object. We carry them as a tagged text property on the candidate job application record, preserving the original label so the customer's team can filter by loss reason in Recruit CRM's search and reporting.

Jobylon

Assessor Feedback

maps to

Recruit CRM & ATS

Note / Activity Log

1:1
Mapping required

Free-text evaluator notes and assessor feedback export as structured comment records from Jobylon. We preserve the author, timestamp, and content body, mapping them to Recruit CRM's candidate notes or activity log entries linked to the relevant candidate job application. Author attribution resolves via the User mapping established in the discovery phase.

Jobylon

Custom Field (Job and Application)

maps to

Recruit CRM & ATS

Job-Associated Custom Field

lossy
Fully supported

Jobylon per-company custom fields for Jobs and Applications are discovered via the /config/companies/{companyId}/job endpoint. Dynamic custom fields that require Jobylon support activation are flagged during discovery; if not confirmed as active, we note the gap in the migration scope and exclude them from the field map. We create matching custom fields in Recruit CRM before migration begins, using the job role association to replicate the per-job scoping that Jobylon uses.

Jobylon

Offer Letter

maps to

Recruit CRM & ATS

Not Migrated

1:1
Fully supported

Offer letter documents and details are stored as attachments in Jobylon. We export attachment URLs and filenames but do not migrate document content because Jobylon's API does not expose offer letter body content. We recommend the customer's admin downloads offer letter PDFs from Jobylon separately and re-uploads to Recruit CRM after migration or stores them in a document management system linked from the candidate record.

Pair-specific challenges

  • Jobylon's alpha Partner API has no bulk export endpoint

    Jobylon's Partner API is explicitly documented as alpha-status with no bulk export capability. Migrations run at 100 requests per minute through a throttled pull model against the OpenAPI-documented endpoints. For organisations with thousands of Applications, this means migration batches take hours to complete. We implement request throttling with exponential backoff and batch reads where the schema allows, and we recommend scoping out closed inactive pipeline stages early to reduce the total request count before the discovery and import phases begin.

  • Per-company custom field schemas require pre-migration discovery

    Jobylon custom fields for Jobs and Applications are not globally defined; they are configured per company via the /config/companies/{companyId}/job endpoint. There is no single global schema. We query the configuration endpoint for each company during discovery, then generate a complete field map before any data moves. Customers with complex multi-field custom schemas across multiple Jobylon companies should expect an extended discovery phase of one to two weeks before migration begins.

  • Pipeline stage names are free-text and not standardised

    Each organisation in Jobylon configures its own pipeline stage names and stage counts. A stage called Phone Screen in one organisation may not exist in another. When migrating to Recruit CRM's configurable pipeline model, we map source stage names to the closest destination equivalents and preserve the original name as a custom field. Customers should review the stage map during the discovery review session to avoid process mismatches after cutover.

  • Dirty data and duplicate records magnify in the new system

    Migration guides from Recruit CRM and industry analysts consistently warn that duplicate records, incomplete profiles, outdated information, and inconsistent formatting migrate and often magnify their negative impact in a new system. We run a data quality audit before migration begins, flagging duplicate Candidates (deduped by email), incomplete Applications with missing required fields, and records with inconsistent date formats. We archive or clean records flagged for exclusion before import rather than migrating dirty data into Recruit CRM.

  • Workflows and automations do not migrate as code

    Jobylon pipeline stage triggers and per-job automation rules do not migrate to Recruit CRM's drag-and-drop workflow builder because they are structurally different automation models. We do not migrate them as code. We deliver a written inventory of every active Jobylon automation with its trigger, conditions, actions, and a recommended Recruit CRM workflow equivalent, so the customer's team can rebuild them post-migration in Recruit CRM's automation interface.

Migration approach

Six steps for a successful Jobylon to Recruit CRM & ATS data migration

  1. Schema discovery and stage mapping

    We audit Jobylon across every distinct company configuration, querying /config/companies/{companyId}/job for each company to capture the full per-company custom field schema. We collect every pipeline and stage name used across the account, then generate a candidate-to-Recruit CRM stage map for customer review. Dynamic custom fields are flagged for activation confirmation with Jobylon support. The discovery output is a written migration scope document covering record counts, field coverage, and any activation gaps.

  2. Data quality audit and deduplication

    We extract Candidate records and run email-based deduplication to identify candidates with multiple Jobylon profiles. We flag incomplete Applications missing required fields and records with inconsistent date formats for customer decision (clean, archive, or migrate as-is). We produce a data quality report before import begins so the customer approves the exclusion and cleaning decisions upfront.

  3. Recruit CRM schema preparation

    We configure the Recruit CRM destination before data moves. This includes creating custom fields on Jobs and candidate job applications to match the discovered Jobylon custom field schema, configuring pipeline stages based on the approved stage map, and provisioning User accounts for every Jobylon owner referenced in the data. The customer's Recruit CRM admin reviews and approves the schema configuration before migration begins.

  4. Throttled import with dependency ordering

    We run migration in record-dependency order: Users first (validated against Recruit CRM User table by email), then Jobs, then Candidates (deduped by email), then candidate job applications linked to the resolved Job and Candidate records, then scorecard evaluations, then assessor feedback notes. Each phase runs with 100 req/min throttling and exponential backoff against Jobylon's API, emitting a row-count reconciliation report before the next phase begins.

  5. Stage history and lost-reason preservation

    Application stage transition history is preserved by writing stage entries to Recruit CRM's candidate job application activity log with timestamps matching the original Jobylon stage change events. Lost reasons from inactive stages carry as tagged text properties. The customer spot-checks stage timelines during the validation phase to confirm that stage order and timestamps match the Jobylon source.

  6. Cutover, validation, and workflow inventory handoff

    We freeze Jobylon 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 automation inventory document listing every active Jobylon workflow with its recommended Recruit CRM equivalent. We support a one-week post-cutover window for reconciliation issues. Workflow rebuilds are outside standard migration scope and are handled by the customer's team or a Recruit CRM implementation partner.
