Brainner is a platform that automates resume screening by using AI to analyze and sort candidates based on recruiter criteria. It seamlessly integrates with Lever, automatically syncing job listings and candidate resumes. This guide will provide you with all the information you need to connect both solutions effectively. With Brainner, you can save time, hire faster, and improve hiring accuracy. For more information refer to the Brainner website


Setting up the Brainner integration

 

You must be a team or organization with admin rights in Brainner to install this integration.

Check out Brainner's getting started video to learn how to configure the integration and start using the platform.

  • Log in to your Brainner account and click on your Profile icon on the bottom left side. 
  • Click Settings
  • Click the ATS tab. 
  • Select Lever from the list of integrations.

  • Sign-in to your Lever Admin account to connect both platforms.

  • On the modal, review the list of requested permissions and click Accept to authorize the integration.
  • As you can see from the image below, Brainner will need these permissions to: import jobs, candidates and rejection reasons automatically from Lever, and post the results and update stages in the candidate’s profile in Lever.

Congratulations! The connection between Brainner and Lever is active!

Configuring the Brainner integration

Although you have activated the connection, there are still a few remaining steps needed to complete the configuration.

  • After authorizing the integration, you will be redirected back to Brainner. The Settings window will appear automatically. If for any reason you were not redirected to the Settings window, you can navigate there by clicking on your Profile icon and then Settings.

Configure preferences

  • In the ATS tab, configure the integration settings and click Apply Changes.
    • If you toggle all available settings, you will start receiving jobs and candidates automatically. Jobs will be synced from Lever automatically the first time that a candidate applies, regardless of whether it is old or new.

    • When you start using Brainner, we suggest disabling the ‘Auto-generate jobs’ setting, as shown in the screenshot below. This enables you to manually import jobs, giving you better control over the job creation process in Brainner, while still ensuring that candidates are automatically received for those jobs. 

    • If you want to import both jobs and candidates manually, you can simply turn off all the settings.

  • A window will open highlighting the next step to configure the webhook in Lever. 

Configure webhooks

The integration will automatically configure a webhook to notify Brainner when a new application is created in Lever. Please complete the following steps to enable the webhook in Lever. 

  • In Lever, go to Settings > Integrations and API > Webhooks.
  • Scroll down to the 'Applications Created' webhook. 
  • If it is not already toggled, toggle the 'Applications Created' webhook on to enable it. 

Once the webhook is enabled, the integration will be able to process the required job and candidate information from Lever to Brainner. 

Using the Brainner integration

  • In Brainner, click on the briefcase, then click Import a Job.

  • Brainner will display a list of jobs available in Lever.
  • Select a job.
  • Click Import to sync the job information from Lever to Brainner. 

  • In the Criteria tab, you will find all the requirements automatically extracted from the Lever job description. It is important to check that the requirements meet your recruitment needs. You can add, delete, or modify any of the requirements.
  • Click Save changes.  

  • If it is a new job and no candidates have applied yet, you will start receiving candidates automatically from Lever once new applications are processed in Lever. 
  • For an existing job where candidates have already applied in Lever, click Import from Lever in the Candidates tab to sync candidates from Lever. After the initial import, any new candidates who apply will also be imported automatically to Brainner. 

  • Select if you would like to 'Re-evaluate existing candidates' or 'Ignore existing candidates'. 
  • Click Import [X number] Candidates.

  • Candidates will be imported, analyzed, scored, and ranked automatically based on the defined criteria. The analysis will be displayed in a table format in Brainner and an individual report will be available for each candidate.
  • New candidates applying to the position in Lever will be imported, analyzed, and added to the report.

For more information please refer to Brainner's tutorial video on How to navigate the Candidates Report.

  • Archive reasons and stages from Lever will be displayed in Brainner. You will be able to archive or advance candidates individually or in bulk. This information will be automatically updated in the candidate's profile in Lever.
