Validated assessments inside Bullhorn for staffing and recruiting agencies.
Bullhorn dominates the staffing-agency segment (~10K agencies, ~150K recruiters). JobCannon's Bullhorn integration is on the 2027 roadmap; same 33-test catalog adapted to agency-recruiter workflows (high-volume, repeat candidates).
In brief
Bullhorn is the staffing-industry ATS leader — used by ~10,000 staffing and recruiting agencies. Their Marketplace partner programme has specific requirements (REST API + REST webhook subscriptions, agency-tenant data model). JobCannon's Bullhorn integration is on the 2027 H1 roadmap; agency-recruiter workflow is meaningfully different from in-house corporate ATS (high-volume reqs, repeat candidates, contract-vs-perm workflows). Same 33-test catalog as our other integrations; multi-tenant; sandbox + production. We expect to support both agency-side scoring (recruiter rates the candidate) and client-side scoring (the agency's end client receives the assessment as part of the placement).
What the Bullhorn integration enables
Bullhorn Marketplace listing
Listed in the Bullhorn Marketplace; one-click install per agency tenant.
Agency + client-side scoring
Bullhorn agencies often relay candidate assessments to their end-client (the hiring company). JobCannon supports both scoring views: agency-recruiter and client-side, with the same envelope.
High-volume rate limits
Staffing-agency hire pipelines move 10-50x volume of corporate ATS. JobCannon's rate limits scope to agency volume with 10x burst on cohort intake.
Repeat-candidate handling
Staffing agencies often re-assess the same candidate for multiple placements. JobCannon's session model handles repeat assessment with optional re-scoring or cached-result reuse.
How it works

Agency installs from Marketplace
Each Bullhorn agency tenant installs JobCannon independently. Sandbox provisions immediately.

Configure agency vs client scoring
Agency admin chooses: agency-side scoring (recruiter sees the score) or client-side scoring (the agency's end client receives the assessment + score).
- 4
Recruiter sends from candidate record
Standard Bullhorn recruiter workflow; assessment fires from the candidate or placement stage.
- 5
Score returns to candidate / placement
On completion, JobCannon writes the result envelope to the Bullhorn candidate record (agency view) or shares with the end-client via secure link (client view).

Same catalog across all JobCannon ATS integrations. Clinical and esoteric tests excluded by design.
Why teams pick JobCannon for Bullhorn
- 33 hire-relevant assessments — Big Five, DISC, EQ, IQ, integrity, cognitive ability, conflict styles — validated against published psychometric standards, not vendor-curated.
- Multi-tenant org isolation by design — each customer's candidates are isolated at the row level (RLS), so the same adapter serves Greenhouse, Ashby, Lever and Workable from one codebase.
- Standardised result envelope — every assessment returns the same shape (dimensions[].score) so your ATS can rank candidates without provider-specific glue.
- Sandbox on the same credentials — pass `sandbox: true` on any invite (or use an ATS credential flagged `is_sandbox`) to run a full send → complete → score cycle that sends no email, counts toward no quota, and never appears in a production view.
- EU-resident data + GDPR-ready DPA — assessments and PII stay on EU Supabase, retention defaults to 90 days with org-level override.
33 hire-eligible assessments, multi-tenant org isolation, sandbox mode on every API key, scoring returned the moment the candidate finishes, REST + result callback delivery. The assessment API is part of the Scale tier: $199/mo flat, 200 assessments included, then $2 each. Sandbox invitations send no email and do not count toward the included volume. Lower tiers include assessments but not API access.

Frequently asked
Why is Bullhorn 2027 vs the corporate-ATS trio in 2026?+
Staffing-agency workflow is meaningfully different from corporate ATS — repeat candidates, agency vs client scoring, high-volume reqs. We chose to ship the corporate-ATS architecture first (Greenhouse + Ashby + Workable in 2026), then circle back to the staffing-agency workflow in 2027 H1.
Can a staffing agency use the JobCannon API today?+
Yes, and for Bullhorn specifically you do not have to build the bridge yourself. The write layer exists: JobCannon authenticates against your Bullhorn REST API, writes the score onto a custom field on the candidate record, and attaches the report. It has been built and mock-tested but not yet run against a live tenant, so the first agency to connect is doing a first connection with us, not using a finished product. What it needs from you: REST API credentials, which your Bullhorn admin requests from Bullhorn Support, and one custom field on the Candidate entity to hold the score. No Marketplace listing and no Enterprise Edition required. The generic path — POST /api/v1/invites, score back via callback — is documented at /docs/assessment-api and works today regardless of ATS.
How does JobCannon handle the same candidate across multiple placements?+
JobCannon's session model supports repeat assessment. Options: (1) re-administer the test (e.g., updated cognitive ability for a new role), (2) reuse the cached result envelope (if the prior assessment is recent enough — configurable per agency).
Does the integration support contract + temp + perm workflows?+
Yes. JobCannon's assessment is workflow-neutral; the same 33-test catalog works whether the candidate is being placed for a 3-month contract, a temp role, or a permanent hire. Bullhorn's placement type flows through to JobCannon's session metadata.
Are there volume discounts for staffing agencies?+
Yes. Partnership engagements with staffing agencies running 1,000+ assessments/mo scope custom volume pricing. Email partners@jobcannon.io for a quote.
How do I get on the early-access list?+
Email partners@jobcannon.io with your Bullhorn agency tenant ID. We'll add you to the early-access list and notify when sandbox credentials are available.
