RECRUITING — EARLY ACCESS

Hiring is the first performance moment

Leapsome Recruiting is an ATS built into your HR platform. Hiring feeds your people data, and that data feeds hiring back: interview on the competencies you review on, and learn which signals predicted your best people.

Candidate data becomes employee data in your HRIS without re-entry, so onboarding is personalized from day one.

ONE CONNECTED LIFECYCLE

Hire into the system that already runs your people

When you hire in Leapsome, a candidate becomes an employee in one step. Offer and application data populate the HRIS profile, documents transfer, and onboarding starts automatically. The work of evaluating someone isn't lost when they join.

Onboarding steps, Sales example.
ONE DATA MODEL, BETTER HIRING

Improve quality of hire with every review

Because reviews and hiring share one data model, you can see which interview signals actually predicted strong performers — and bring that evidence into how you hire next.

Leapsome ai

AI that supports the hiring decision, not one that makes it

Leapsome AI drafts job descriptions, supports screening, and transcribes interviews. And because hiring and reviews share one data model, it shapes interview scorecards from your top performers' traits.

BUILT ON YOUR COMPETENCY FRAMEWORK

Interview against the competencies you actually review on

Interviewers score candidates on the same Leapsome competencies your managers use in reviews. Hiring and development speak one language, so evaluation stays consistent from candidate to contributor.

PIPELINE MANAGEMENT

Run the full hiring pipeline in one view

Track candidates by stage across roles, as a board or list. Open roles with approval tied to headcount planning, then schedule across calendars or let candidates self-book. Scorecards, automations, and offers all live in one applicant tracking system.

Onboarding steps, Sales example.
GOVERNANCE & COMPLIANCE

Compliant hiring, by default

Role-based permissions and per-job approval gates keep recruiting structured as you scale. Candidate data auto-anonymizes on a schedule you set, so data retention stays GDPR-compliant without manual cleanup.

Frequently asked questions

What is Leapsome Recruiting?

Leapsome Recruiting is Leapsome's applicant tracking system (ATS), built into the same platform as your HRIS and Talent Suite. It covers the full hiring process, from job posting to a hired employee profile.

Is Leapsome Recruiting an ATS?

Yes. Leapsome Recruiting is a full applicant tracking system. Unlike a standalone ATS, it's built into your HR platform, so candidate data becomes employee data automatically.

How is this different from a standalone ATS?

A standalone ATS stops at the offer. Leapsome connects hiring to onboarding, goals, and performance reviews, so your picture of a person keeps growing after they're hired.

Does the ATS connect to performance reviews?

Yes. Interviewers evaluate candidates on the same Leapsome competencies used in performance reviews, so hiring and development stay consistent.

What happens when a candidate is hired?

The candidate converts to an employee profile in your HRIS in one step. Offer and application data populate the record, documents transfer, and onboarding can start automatically.

Is candidate data GDPR-compliant?

Yes. Candidate data auto-anonymizes on a configurable schedule, with role-based permissions and approval gates across the hiring process.

Does Leapsome Recruiting use AI?

Yes, but it’s always optional. Leapsome AI supports job-description drafting, candidate screening, and interview transcription. It drafts and suggests, but your team makes every decision.

What makes Leapsome AI different?

Standalone recruiting AI works from the resume and the job post. Leapsome AI works from your competency frameworks and your performance data, so it supports screening for the traits that predicted strong performers, not just keyword matches. The data underneath it is the difference.

Can I publish roles to a careers page?

Yes. Publish open roles to a branded, embeddable Leapsome career portal with custom application fields and resume autofill.

Connect the employee lifecycle. Build performance that lasts.

Don’t measure performance in moments. Develop it.

From the first candidate conversation to the next promotion, base your people decisions on connected people & performance data, along the entire employee lifecycle.
