FAQ

Frequently asked questions

How does Improvado connect to Bullhorn CRM?
Improvado connects to Bullhorn CRM via its RESTful API through secure authentication. Setup takes approximately 15 minutes and requires API credentials from your Bullhorn administrator account. Once authenticated, Improvado performs an initial backfill of historical candidate, client, job, placement, and activity data, typically completing within 3-6 hours depending on your database size and integration volume.
What Bullhorn CRM data does Improvado pull?
Improvado extracts candidates (profiles, skills, interaction history), clients (company data, contacts, relationship status), jobs (requirements, status, postings), placements (terms, start dates, billing), contacts, emails (inbound/outbound with auto-capture), activities, and pipeline stages. Key fields include candidate names, addresses, phone numbers, job titles, placement rates, time-to-fill metrics, client engagement scores, and AI-generated insights. Data refreshes every 15 minutes for near-real-time recruiting intelligence.
How often does Bullhorn CRM data refresh?
Bullhorn CRM data syncs every 15 minutes by default, capturing real-time candidate movements, job status changes, placement updates, and email interactions. Improvado uses incremental syncing to pull only changed records, optimizing API usage and performance. You can trigger manual syncs on-demand via the Improvado dashboard or through your AI agent when immediate data refresh is needed before critical recruiting decisions.
Can the AI agent write data back to Bullhorn CRM?
Yes. Your AI agent can update candidate statuses, move candidates through pipeline stages, create and modify job postings, assign recruiters and account managers, schedule interviews, log activities, and sync LinkedIn profile data and InMail responses directly into Bullhorn. Every write-back action is recorded in Improvado's audit trail with user attribution, timestamps, and before/after values. Role-based access controls ensure compliance with your staffing workflows and data governance policies.
Is Bullhorn CRM data secure with Improvado?
Improvado is SOC 2 Type II certified and compliant with GDPR and HIPAA standards, critical for staffing agencies handling sensitive candidate and client data. All Bullhorn data is encrypted in transit (TLS 1.2+) and at rest (AES-256). API credentials are stored in a secure vault with role-based access controls, and all data access is logged for audit purposes. Improvado never stores credentials in plain text or shares candidate data with unauthorized parties.
How does Bullhorn CRM connect with other platforms in Improvado?
Improvado maps Bullhorn CRM data to a Common Data Model, enabling unified analysis with 1,000+ marketing, sales, and analytics sources. For example, correlate Bullhorn candidate sourcing channels with LinkedIn Ads spend, Indeed job board performance, and email campaign engagement to identify which channels deliver the highest-quality placements at the lowest cost-per-hire. Your AI agent can query cross-platform datasets without complex joins, surfacing insights like 'Which job boards drive candidates with the fastest time-to-placement?'
