# How Do I Integrate Recruiting Data With HR Approval Workflows?

You integrate recruiting data with HR approval workflows by connecting the candidate record used during hiring directly to the approval request, so the hiring manager, HR, and finance are all reviewing the same data, no retyping required. On **Jestor**, recruiting and approvals can share the same relational structure.

Recruiting and hiring approval often live in separate tools, which means the exact candidate data a hiring manager reviewed during screening has to be manually summarized again for the approval step.

## What separate recruiting and approval systems cost

- Candidate data retyped or summarized manually for the approval step
- No direct link between the recruiting record and the resulting approval decision
- Approvers losing context that was already captured during screening
- Two disconnected histories, one for recruiting, one for approval

## How integrated recruiting-to-approval flows work

- Candidate and role data captured during recruiting stays connected to the approval request
- **Alcada** rules route the hiring decision by manager, HR, and finance as needed
- Approvers see the same recruiting context, screening notes, role details, without reentry
- The approval decision stays permanently connected to the original recruiting record

## Why Jestor fits this use case

- Recruiting and approval share the same relational data, not separate systems
- No manual summary step between screening and the hiring decision
- Approvers gain full context without needing to chase it separately
- One continuous record spans from application through final hiring approval
