How the Lever + Relode Connector Works

Jobs

Once the connector is enabled, Relode automatically synchronizes all publicly posted jobs from Lever for your organization. These jobs will initially appear in a pending status in your Relode client portal. Each job will have the following information from Lever: 

  • Job title 
  • Job description 
  • Job location 

You have two options for engaging the Relode crowd of recruiters to assist in sourcing candidates for your jobs.

  1. Select the job(s) of interest, edit them to provide some additional basic information (key qualifications, salary, etc.), and request its broadcast through Relode.  Your assigned Relode Customer Success Manager (CSM) will be notified, validate all information, and send it to the Relode crowd.
  2. Or simply send a message to your assigned Relode CSM with the job titles and locations to broadcast through Relode.  If these jobs have already been discussed in previous conversations, Relode will complete the job information and send it to the Relode crowd on your behalf.  

In Relode you can structure your jobs using departments, offices, or business units to match your hierarchy in Lever. If this is something you are interested in, please discuss this with your Relode CSM and they can advise on the best way to structure your Relode account.
