Joynd is a fully-managed integration company that offers an integration between Lever and Proforma Screening Solutions (Proforma) that allows you to seamlessly submit candidates for background screening directly from your Lever dashboard.
Proforma will be notified when a candidate has reached a trigger stage in Lever. A background screening order will automatically be added to your account in Proforma and the candidate will be emailed a secure test link. Once the candidate has completed their submission and the background screen has been completed by Proforma, the status and screening report will be available on your Lever dashboard.

How to use the integration:
Adding the Proforma Background Screen to the Job
Specify which Proforma background screening package to order by adding a tag on the Job record on Lever.
|
You will need to create the tag the first time you order each Proforma package. |
For each package, create a tag using the following format:
- Package = "Proforma_<package_name>"
Initiating the Background Screen
When you add a Candidate to a Job, the Lever Opportunity record will automatically show the tag with the Proforma package that you added to the Job in the previous step.
To initiate the background screening order, change the stage of the opportunity to Background Screening:
If the order was successful, after a few seconds you will see the tag “Background Check:Ordered” added to the opportunity on Lever. If it was not successful, you will see the tag “Background Check:Error”.
Reviewing Proforma Background Screening Results
Once Proforma has completed the background screen, the Opportunity record will be updated with the tag “Background Check:Completed” and there will be a new note added:
When you click on Notes, you will see a link to the Proforma report.
|
The Proforma report url can be synced to Lever as a “Secret” note that only certain users can see. Please advise your Joynd Integration Manager if you would like the report note to be marked as secret on Lever. For more information on secret notes on Lever, click here. |
When you click the link, you will be re-directed to the Proforma report:
How to disable the integration:
1. Navigate to your Integrations & API Settings Page in Lever.
2. Under the Authorized Apps tab, locate the Proforma app.
