Job postings, applications and resumes from ADP Workforce Now flow into Delectus. Nothing is changed in ADP Workforce Now: you keep your ATS exactly as it is.

Hiring with ADP Workforce Now day to day

  • Recurring roles to fill. Some jobs are hired for all year round, and the same screening work starts over with every wave of applications.
  • Candidates to call back again and again. Reaching a candidate by phone often takes several tries, for a conversation that lasts a few minutes.
  • Little time to prepare interviews. Managers walk into interviews with no prepared questions and no shared criteria.

How the ADP Workforce Now integration works

  1. Access approved by your admin. During setup, they authorize Delectus to read the recruiting part of ADP Workforce Now. There's nothing to install.
  2. Jobs and candidates imported. Jobs, applications and resumes come in automatically. The rest of your HRIS isn't involved.
  3. AI works on every job. Resumes are read and ranked, candidates prescreened by text or phone, interviews prepared.

What does the Delectus ADP Workforce Now integration add?

ADP Workforce Now is an HR and payroll solution from ADP, used by midsize and large companies. It includes a recruiting component to post jobs and track candidates all the way to hire.

With ADP Workforce Now, the hire flows naturally into payroll and personnel administration. Upstream, screening and prescreening candidates are still done by hand. Delectus picks up the applications read-only and takes care of that part: it reads resumes, ranks them and has its agents contact the shortlisted candidates.

Your jobs are still posted from ADP Workforce Now and your HR team keeps its habits. What changes is what recruiters and managers find when they open an application in Delectus: a resume already analyzed, a summary of strengths and gaps, and prescreening answers sorted by criterion.

Resumes read and explained as soon as they arrive

As soon as an application lands in ADP Workforce Now, it's picked up in Delectus, read and compared to the role. The fit score always comes with its reasons, so you can check in a few lines why a candidate is ranked at the top or further down.

Past candidates in your database aren't forgotten. When a new job resembles their background, they're suggested to you with the same explanations. You can also search the database in plain language and narrow it down by experience, skills or location.

Reach candidates at the right time

A candidate who already has a job responds more easily to a message than to a call in the middle of the day. The SMS prescreening agent texts them, introduces itself as an AI, asks for their consent and asks the job's questions. It can also schedule a call from the voice agent at the time the candidate chooses.

When a text goes unanswered after two follow-ups, the voice agent calls. If no one picks up, the recruiter is alerted. Meetings are then booked into your real open slots, thanks to the calendar synced with Outlook and Teams.

Example: a logistics company hiring order pickers

A logistics company posts order picker jobs in ADP Workforce Now every month. Delectus ranks the applications on the job's criteria, like night shifts or forklift certification. The SMS prescreening agent checks those points with each shortlisted candidate and offers a slot with the team lead. Those who don't reply get a call from the voice agent.

Prepared, comparable interviews

For each role, Delectus prepares an interview kit with the questions and scoring criteria. The interview can be run by Alicia, the AI interviewer, or by you over video, with a live transcript and suggested follow-up questions. At the end, a report by topic helps you compare candidates on the same basis.
