Overview

What this migration involves

Teamdoor organizes recruitment around a visual kanban board with candidate cards that track stage transitions, source channels, and team collaboration notes. Recruit CRM uses a traditional candidate database model with pipelines, tasks, and placements. The migration carries Teamdoor candidate records (including all resume files, interview notes, and stage history), job postings, talent pool segments, and custom fields into Recruit CRM's structured database. We handle the API extraction from Teamdoor on Pro/Enterprise plans and map Stage IDs to Recruit CRM pipeline stages. Workflows, email templates, and employer branding pages do not migrate — those require manual rebuild in Recruit CRM's builder tools. The delta-pickup window (24–48 hours) captures any candidates added or updated during the cutover window so the Recruit CRM database reflects Teamdoor's final state at go-live.

Why teams make this switch

Two sides of the same decision

Leaving

Teamdoor

What's pushing teams away

  • The platform is Taiwan/Japanese-market focused with no English-language support infrastructure, making it unsuitable for English-speaking HR teams or global deployments.
  • API access is gated behind the Pro tier, so mid-market teams on the Basic or Standard plan cannot automate data syncs or build integrations.
  • Recruiters report that pipeline customization options are limited compared to enterprise ATS platforms — complex multi-stage workflows require workarounds.
  • No native HRMS capabilities — Teamdoor manages candidates and jobs but has no concept of employees, onboarding, org charts, or payroll, so companies outgrow it once they hire.
  • Performance degrades when the talent pool exceeds the tier's OCR limit; teams on Basic with no CSV export are forced to manually re-enter data.

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 Teamdoor objects map to Recruit CRM & ATS

Each row shows how a Teamdoor 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.

Teamdoor

Candidate Card

maps to

Recruit CRM & ATS

Candidate

1:1
Fully supported

Teamdoor's candidate card maps 1:1 to Recruit CRM's candidate profile. The card's stage history, source channel, and create date migrate as custom fields or activity log entries. Resume files re-upload to the candidate profile.

Teamdoor

Job Posting

maps to

Recruit CRM & ATS

Job

1:1
Fully supported

Active job postings migrate as Recruit CRM jobs with title, description, requirements, and status. Closed or archived postings can be migrated as inactive jobs for historical reference or excluded based on your scope decision.

Teamdoor

Recruitment Stage

maps to

Recruit CRM & ATS

Pipeline Stage

1:1
Fully supported

Teamdoor's kanban stages (Applied, Screening, Interview, Offer, etc.) map to Recruit CRM pipeline stages. Stage order and color coding are preserved. Teams with multiple pipelines in Teamdoor map each to a corresponding Recruit CRM pipeline.

Teamdoor

Talent Pool Tag

maps to

Recruit CRM & ATS

Candidate Tag

1:1
Fully supported

Teamdoor talent pool tags migrate as Recruit CRM candidate tags. Multiple tags per candidate are preserved. Teams using tag combinations for segmentation should note that Recruit CRM uses flat tagging without hierarchy.

Teamdoor

Interview Note

maps to

Recruit CRM & ATS

Activity Log / Note

1:1
Fully supported

Interview notes written on candidate cards migrate as notes or activity entries in Recruit CRM tied to the candidate. Original author, date, and note content are preserved. Formatting is converted to plain text or Recruit CRM's supported format.

Teamdoor

Source Channel

maps to

Recruit CRM & ATS

Source Custom Field

1:1
Fully supported

Teamdoor tracks how candidates arrived (job board, direct link, referral, etc.). Recruit CRM has no native source field — we create a Source__c custom field on the candidate object and populate it from Teamdoor's channel data.

Teamdoor

Custom Collector Field

maps to

Recruit CRM & ATS

Custom Field

1:1
Fully supported

Teamdoor's customizable candidate form fields map to Recruit CRM custom fields. Field type mapping: text fields to text, pick-lists to pick-lists, number fields to number. Multi-select collectors map to multi-select pick-lists where Recruit CRM supports them.

Teamdoor

Resume Attachment

maps to

Recruit CRM & ATS

Resume File

1:1
Fully supported

PDF and Word resume files attached to Teamdoor candidate cards are downloaded and re-uploaded to Recruit CRM candidate profiles. File size limits apply (Recruit CRM default 10MB per file). We preserve the original filename and upload timestamp.

Teamdoor

Candidate Create Date

maps to

Recruit CRM & ATS

Original_Create_Date__c

1:1
Fully supported

Teamdoor records the original application date. Recruit CRM's candidate creation date reflects the migration run. We preserve the Teamdoor original date as a custom datetime field for reporting continuity and compliance records.

Teamdoor

Stage Change Timestamp

maps to

Recruit CRM & ATS

Stage_Changed_At__c

1:1
Fully supported

Teamdoor tracks when candidates move between kanban stages. This history migrates as a custom datetime field on the candidate record. Recruit CRM's pipeline stage does not retain stage-change timestamps natively.

Teamdoor

Teamdoor User / Owner

maps to

Recruit CRM & ATS

Recruit CRM User

1:1
Fully supported

Teamdoor users matched to Recruit CRM users by email address. Unmatched users are flagged before migration. Records from unmatched users are assigned to a fallback Recruit CRM user or held for admin resolution.

Medium

Custom field schemas vary per organization and require field-level mapping

Medium

Files and email attachments require separate extraction and re-upload

Low

Email sequences and automation logic do not transfer between platforms

Pair-specific challenges

  • Talent pool tag hierarchy does not exist in Recruit CRM

    Teamdoor lets agencies build hierarchical talent pool segments with tag combinations that filter candidates by multiple dimensions simultaneously. Recruit CRM uses a flat tagging model with list views — tag combinations require saved filter views rather than nested hierarchy. We surface all tags on candidates but advise that complex pool segmentation is rebuilt as Recruit CRM saved filters post-migration. Teams relying heavily on pool segmentation should allocate admin time to rebuilding those views.

  • Workflows and stage-change triggers do not migrate

    Teamdoor's email notifications and stage-change automations are configured within each plan tier and have no equivalent in Recruit CRM's migration scope. Recruit CRM offers workflow automation as a paid add-on that must be configured separately. We export Teamdoor's workflow definitions as a structured document your team can use as a rebuild reference. This is a manual step — budget 1–3 days for a Recruit CRM admin to rebuild critical automations.

  • Employer branding pages require manual rebuild

    Teamdoor's customizable careers page with branding, banner images, and job listings is a hosted page that does not export as data. Recruit CRM provides a separate job board and careers page builder that must be reconfigured. Candidate records and job postings migrate; the public-facing careers page and any custom domain setup are handled outside the data migration scope.

  • Stage-change timestamps need custom fields to preserve history

    Recruit CRM's pipeline stage on a candidate record reflects the current stage only — it does not store a history log of stage transitions with timestamps. Teamdoor tracks when each candidate moved between kanban columns. We preserve this as Stage_Changed_At__c custom datetime fields, but the full stage history (multiple transitions) is flattened into the most recent timestamp. If full audit history is required, discuss custom activity-logging setup with your Recruit CRM admin before migration.

  • Standard-tier Teamdoor requires CSV export preparation

    Teamdoor's Standard plan supports CSV export but does not expose a full API. We prepare the CSV from Teamdoor's export interface, validate field completeness, and map it into Recruit CRM's import format. This adds 1–2 days to the preparation phase compared to Pro/Enterprise API-based extraction. Standard-tier teams should coordinate with their Teamdoor account to ensure the export includes all custom fields before migration kickoff.

Migration approach

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

  1. Export Teamdoor data via API or CSV

    We connect to the Teamdoor API on Pro or Enterprise plans to pull candidate records, job postings, talent pool tags, stage history, and custom field data. For Standard-tier accounts, we prepare a comprehensive CSV export covering all candidate fields and validate completeness before mapping begins. Resume files are downloaded in bulk from Teamdoor's attachment storage.

  2. Map Teamdoor objects to Recruit CRM schema

    We map Teamdoor's candidate cards, job postings, talent pool tags, and custom fields to Recruit CRM's candidate, job, and custom field objects. Stage names map to Recruit CRM pipeline stages. Custom collector fields in Teamdoor are created as custom fields in Recruit CRM before data import begins. A mapping plan is delivered for your review before any records move.

  3. Create Recruit CRM custom fields and pipelines

    Before loading data, we create the custom fields on Recruit CRM candidates and jobs to receive Teamdoor's source channel, stage-change timestamps, original create dates, and any other Teamdoor-specific properties. Pipeline stages are configured to match Teamdoor's kanban column names and order. This step is coordinated with your Recruit CRM admin if they prefer to create fields themselves.

  4. Run sample migration with field-level validation

    A representative slice of 50–200 records migrates first — covering candidates across different stages, jobs with varied status, and resumes. We generate a field-level diff between the Teamdoor source and the Recruit CRM destination so you can verify stage mapping, tag migration, and owner resolution before the full run commits.

  5. Full migration with delta-pickup and audit log

    The full dataset loads into Recruit CRM. A delta-pickup window (24–48 hours) captures any candidates added or stage-changed in Teamdoor during the cutover. An audit log records every operation. One-click rollback is available if reconciliation finds data gaps. Resume files upload concurrently with record creation.

Platform deep dives

Context on both ends of the pair

Source

Strengths

  • Visual Kanban pipeline with drag-and-drop candidate cards that mirrors how HR teams mentally track recruiting progress.
  • Multi-channel inbox aggregates applications from 104, LinkedIn, Facebook, and manual sources into a single candidate view.
  • Built-in analytics with stage-level conversion rates and source attribution without requiring a BI tool.
  • OCR-enabled searchable talent pool on Standard and above — up to 10,000 resume scans on Pro.
  • Employer-branded careers page builder with custom colors and banners, no-code.

Weaknesses

  • API access is gated behind Pro tier, limiting automation and migration options for Basic and Standard customers.
  • Platform has no employee management, onboarding, org chart, or payroll features — it is ATS-only.
  • English-language documentation and support are minimal; the product is primarily designed for Mandarin and Japanese-speaking markets.
  • Custom pipeline stage configuration is per-job, which creates schema variation that complicates bulk migrations.
  • Data residency is Taiwan/Japan/Singapore — problematic for GDPR-sensitive EU deployments.
