Overview

What this migration involves

Moving from Whitecarrot.io to Recruit CRM is a shift from an AI-augmentation layer to a standalone ATS/CRM platform. Whitecarrot.io embeds screening questions, skills tests, one-way video interviews, and coding challenges directly into job listings; Recruit CRM provides standard ATS pipeline management with 24/7 support and integrations for over 1,000 third-party applications. We map Whitecarrot.io assessment objects (Screening Questions, Skills Tests, Video Interviews, Interview Scorecards, Offers) to equivalent Recruit CRM candidate custom fields or structured records, preserving question logic, test scores, and approval flow states. Career site configurations export as JSON rather than rendered pages and require rebuilding in Recruit CRM's site builder. Job board posting credentials do not transfer between platforms. We do not migrate workflows, automations, or sequences as code; we deliver a written inventory of any active workflows requiring manual rebuild in Recruit CRM.

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

Whitecarrot.io logo

Whitecarrot.io

What's pushing teams away

  • As an early-stage product (founded 2021), some customers report the platform took time to reach full feature maturity, with one reviewer noting the experience was good but the product needed development time.
  • Per-seat pricing at $1,000/user/month with a minimum 2-recruiter seat requirement makes it costly for small teams with intermittent hiring volume.
  • Teams requiring enterprise-level reporting, advanced analytics, or heavy customization may find the standard reporting tiers insufficient without a custom request.
  • The platform lacks a publicly documented consumer API with published rate limits, limiting automation options for teams with sophisticated integration needs.
  • Job and candidate volume limits on lower tiers can force upgrades sooner than expected as teams scale their hiring.

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 Whitecarrot.io objects map to Recruit CRM & ATS

Each row shows how a Whitecarrot.io 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.

Whitecarrot.io

Jobs

maps to

Recruit CRM & ATS

Job Position

1:1
Mapping required

Whitecarrot.io Job records migrate to Recruit CRM Job Position. Job title, description, requirements, department, location, and employment type transfer directly. Job status (Draft, Open, Paused, Closed) maps to Recruit CRM status values. We flag the count delta during scoping: if the Whitecarrot.io Recruiter Pro plan holds 5 or fewer active jobs, migration lands cleanly on Essential; if more than 5 open jobs exist, we recommend upgrading to Recruit CRM Business before migration to avoid truncation.

Whitecarrot.io

Candidates

maps to

Recruit CRM & ATS

Candidate

1:1
Fully supported

Candidate profiles, contact information, application history, and stage progressions migrate 1:1. Whitecarrot.io stage names map to equivalent Recruit CRM pipeline stages using a migration-time transform. Email addresses serve as the dedupe key. Candidate source attribution and UTM fields migrate as custom fields if populated in Whitecarrot.io.

Whitecarrot.io

Screening Questions

maps to

Recruit CRM & ATS

Custom Fields on Candidate

1:many
Fully supported

Whitecarrot.io screening question sets attached to jobs migrate as structured question records. Each question type (multiple-choice, free text, ranking) maps to an equivalent Recruit CRM custom field type. Answer data populates the corresponding custom field on the Candidate record. Conditional routing logic in Whitecarrot.io is documented in a mapping note rather than recreated, since Recruit CRM does not support conditional question branching at the candidate level.

Whitecarrot.io

Skills Tests

maps to

Recruit CRM & ATS

Custom Fields or Attachments on Candidate

1:1
Fully supported

Skills test configurations, test links, and candidate completion statuses migrate as structured records. Test score data transfers to Recruit CRM custom number fields. If the score is a pass/fail binary, it maps to a custom checkbox field. Automated scoring rubrics are preserved as a JSON attachment on the Candidate record for audit. We flag any test link that expires after migration since the original test URL may not remain active.

Whitecarrot.io

One-Way Video Interviews

maps to

Recruit CRM & ATS

Attachments and Custom Fields on Candidate

1:1
Fully supported

Video interview recordings and metadata (duration, view count, submission timestamp) migrate as binary blobs attached to the Candidate record in Recruit CRM. We preserve the original Whitecarrot.io access URL as a custom text field in case the destination platform requires re-authentication. Recruit CRM does not have a native video interview player; we document the playback format (mp4, webm) so the customer knows which format they are receiving.

Whitecarrot.io

Coding Challenges

maps to

Recruit CRM & ATS

Attachments and Custom Fields on Candidate

1:1
Fully supported

Coding challenge configurations, candidate submissions, and automated scoring results migrate as structured data. Score rubrics and output formats (GitHub link, file attachment, test result JSON) are preserved as a structured JSON attachment on the Candidate record. Automated scoring values migrate to custom number fields on the Candidate. We flag any challenges that rely on Whitecarrot.io's integrated execution environment since that environment does not exist in Recruit CRM.

Whitecarrot.io

Interview Scorecards

maps to

Recruit CRM & ATS

Custom Fields or Notes on Candidate

1:1
Fully supported

Scorecard templates and interviewer responses migrate to Recruit CRM as structured custom fields on the Candidate or as Notes with structured headers. Multi-interviewer scorecards are preserved with attribution to each interviewer. Aggregate ratings transfer to a custom number field. We map the scorecard section names to Recruit CRM custom field labels for readability.

Whitecarrot.io

Offers

maps to

Recruit CRM & ATS

Offers

1:1
Fully supported

Offer records migrate to Recruit CRM Offer with compensation details, e-signature status, and approval flow states preserved. Offer approval workflows in Whitecarrot.io are documented as a workflow inventory item: Recruit CRM's offer management supports approval flows but the configuration is manual. We flag any offers in Pending or Approved state that may require re-triggering of the approval sequence in Recruit CRM.

Whitecarrot.io

Psychometric Tests

maps to

Recruit CRM & ATS

Custom Fields on Candidate

1:1
Mapping required

Psychometric test configurations and candidate results migrate to Recruit CRM custom fields. Test vendor integration details that are Whitecarrot.io-specific do not transfer since they are tied to Whitecarrot.io's own integrations. We migrate the result data (scores, completion status, vendor name) as structured custom fields so the customer retains the evaluation history even if the vendor connection must be re-established in Recruit CRM.

Whitecarrot.io

Users and Roles

maps to

Recruit CRM & ATS

Users

1:1
Fully supported

Whitecarrot.io User accounts and role assignments (Recruiter, Hiring Manager, Interviewer) migrate to Recruit CRM Users. Role name strings map to equivalent Recruit CRM permission sets. We resolve Users by email match during migration. Any Whitecarrot.io user without a matching Recruit CRM account is held in a reconciliation queue for the customer's admin to provision before record import resumes.

Whitecarrot.io

Career Site Builder

maps to

Recruit CRM & ATS

Career Page Configuration

lossy
Mapping required

Whitecarrot.io Career Site Builder configurations export as structured JSON records rather than rendered HTML pages. We provide the full JSON export and a field-level map so the customer's Recruit CRM admin can reconstruct the career site in Recruit CRM's site builder. Branding settings (logo, colors, fonts) migrate as configuration values that must be re-entered manually. This is a manual rebuild step, not an automated migration.

Whitecarrot.io

Job Board Integrations

maps to

Recruit CRM & ATS

Reference Records

1:1
Mapping required

Active job board posting configurations (which boards, which jobs, posting history) migrate as structured reference records. We do not transfer active posting URLs, authenticated job board sessions, or LinkedIn/Indeed account credentials, which are tied to Whitecarrot.io's own integrations. The customer must re-authenticate each job board in Recruit CRM's integrations settings before reposting. We provide a posting configuration checklist to guide this step.

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

  • Recruiter Pro job-count cap causes silent import failures

    Whitecarrot.io Recruiter Pro limits active jobs to 5. When migrating from Whitecarrot.io Recruiter Pro with more than 5 open positions, all Job records above the cap will fail to import without an explicit error in some import paths. We detect the tier during scoping and surface the job count delta before migration begins, recommending a Recruit CRM Business plan upgrade or a job archivation strategy in advance. We recommend migrating to Recruit CRM Business ($135/user) which offers unlimited jobs and candidates rather than Essential ($95/user) which may also have undisclosed limits.

  • Assessment video and coding challenge binaries may lack native playback

    Whitecarrot.io one-way video interview recordings and coding challenge outputs migrate as binary attachments in Recruit CRM, but Recruit CRM does not have a native video interview player or integrated coding challenge execution environment. We preserve the access metadata and original file format so the customer can evaluate whether a third-party video hosting integration or a separate coding platform (Codility, HackerRank) is needed post-migration. This is a functional gap, not a data loss issue.

  • Conditional screening routing does not transfer between platforms

    Whitecarrot.io supports conditional question routing in screening flows (show question B if answer to question A meets a condition). Recruit CRM's candidate form does not support conditional branching. We migrate the question set and answer data, but conditional routing logic is documented as a separate configuration note for the customer to evaluate rebuilding manually in Recruit CRM or accepting a linear question flow.

  • Career site configurations require manual reconstruction

    Whitecarrot.io Career Site Builder exports site configurations as JSON or structured records, not rendered HTML pages. Recruit CRM's career site builder requires manual configuration of page structure, branding, and job listing layout. We provide a full field-level export map of the career site JSON so the customer's Recruit CRM admin can reconstruct the site accurately, but the rebuild is a manual step outside the automated migration scope.

  • Job board credentials do not carry over to Recruit CRM

    Active job board posting URLs and authenticated sessions with LinkedIn, Indeed, or niche job boards are tied to Whitecarrot.io's own integrations account. We migrate the posting configuration (which boards, which jobs) as structured reference records, but the customer must re-authenticate each job board connection in Recruit CRM's integration settings. This is a post-migration administrative step that typically takes 15-30 minutes per job board.

Migration approach

Six steps for a successful Whitecarrot.io to Recruit CRM & ATS data migration

  1. Scoping and tier assessment

    We audit the Whitecarrot.io account across tier (Recruiter Pro, Teams, Teams Pro), job count, candidate volume, active assessment objects (screening questions, skills tests, video interviews, coding challenges, psychometric tests), active users, and career site configuration. We compare this against Recruit CRM's plan tiers (Essential at $95/user, Business at $135/user) to determine whether a plan upgrade is needed before migration. We surface the job-count delta if the source is Recruiter Pro with more than 5 active jobs, and confirm the seat count for accurate Recruit CRM billing projection. The scoping output is a written migration scope document with record counts per object and a Recruit CRM plan recommendation.

  2. Data export and assessment object cataloging

    We extract Whitecarrot.io data via authenticated export including Jobs, Candidates, Screening Question sets with conditional routing logic, Skills Test configurations and scores, Video Interview recordings and metadata, Coding Challenge submissions and scoring rubrics, Interview Scorecards with multi-interviewer attribution, Offers with e-signature and approval states, Psychometric Test results, Users and Role assignments, and Career Site Builder JSON configurations. Assessment objects are cataloged separately from transactional records because each requires field-type mapping or binary blob handling before import.

  3. Field mapping and Recruit CRM schema preparation

    We design the Recruit CRM destination schema including custom fields for assessment data (skills test scores, psychometric results, video interview metadata), custom field types for each screening question answer, and structured Notes templates for interview scorecards. We pre-create the custom fields in Recruit CRM before any data import so that the import job has valid targets for all mapped values. If the customer is upgrading to Recruit CRM Business from Essential to handle volume, that provisioning happens in this step.

  4. Pilot migration and assessment data validation

    We run a pilot migration of 50-100 candidate records into a Recruit CRM staging environment to validate field mappings, dedupe behavior, and attachment upload. Assessment records (video interview blobs, coding challenge files, scorecard Notes) are spot-checked for format integrity. The customer reviews 10-20 pilot records and signs off before full production migration begins. Any mapping corrections are captured here.

  5. Production migration in dependency order

    We run production migration in record-dependency order: Users (manual provisioning, validated first), Job Positions (with tier check against job count), Candidates (with stage mappings applied and dedupe key validated), Assessment data (Screening Questions, Skills Tests, Video Interviews, Coding Challenges, Psychometric Tests, Scorecards attached to Candidates in order), Offers (with approval state preserved), Career Site Builder JSON (delivered as structured export for manual rebuild), and Job Board posting configurations (delivered as checklist for manual re-authentication). Each phase emits a row-count reconciliation report before the next phase begins.

  6. Cutover, validation, and handoff

    We freeze Whitecarrot.io writes 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 written career site rebuild map and job board re-authentication checklist to the customer's admin. We provide a workflow and automation inventory documenting any Whitecarrot.io workflows or sequences that cannot migrate so the customer's team knows what requires manual rebuild in Recruit CRM. We support a five-business-day hypercare window for reconciliation issues.
