Screen Smart Recruiters Integration
Release: SmartRecruiters integration for AI Interviewer (Screen)
IMPORTANT: SmartRecruiters marketplace review in progress
The integration install flow is live in production. The full recruiter workflow (send Screen from SmartRecruiters, results write back) is built and in final review with SmartRecruiters for marketplace publication. CS/Sales can start positioning now; customer rollout should wait until BrightHire confirms GA.

What’s new (TL;DR)
Recruiters using SmartRecruiters can run BrightHire Screen inside their normal ATS workflow—send an AI interview from the candidate profile, and get results back in SmartRecruiters—without a separate BrightHire-only process.
This is a new integration built for Screen. It also supports everything the existing SmartRecruiters integration does for live interviews (notetaker, sync, etc.).
What changed
One-click install from BrightHire: Admins connect SmartRecruiters via OAuth from Settings → SmartRecruiters (consent screen, secure token exchange, uninstall supported).
Screen inside SmartRecruiters: Recruiters can select a BrightHire AI Interviewer from SmartRecruiters and send a Screen invitation to a candidate on an application—same candidate experience as other ATS integrations (email invite with BrightHire-hosted interview link; SMS where enabled).
Results in SmartRecruiters: When a candidate completes Screen, evaluation results flow back to the candidate’s profile in SmartRecruiters so recruiters don’t have to leave the ATS to review outcomes.
Existing customers unaffected: The current SmartRecruiters integration is unchanged. Existing SR customers on live interview don’t need to do anything. Customers who want the full Screen experience install the new integration from BrightHire settings when they’re ready.
Org setup (Customer Success): Enable Screen for the org, then walk the customer through Settings → SmartRecruiters → Install. Coordinate timing with SmartRecruiters marketplace availability before promising the in-ATS send flow.
Why this matters (talk track for customers)
Today, SmartRecruiters customers who want Screen often manage invites and results outside the ATS—or can’t use Screen at all in SR.
This integration helps teams:
Keep recruiters in SmartRecruiters for high-volume top-of-funnel screening
Send Screen where candidates already live in the hiring process
Get scores and outcomes on the candidate record without manual export or tab-switching
Standardize early screening on the same AI Interviewer experience BrightHire delivers for Greenhouse, Ashby, and Workday
How to position it
“You can run BrightHire Screen without leaving SmartRecruiters—pick an AI Interviewer, send the invite from the candidate profile, and results come back into SmartRecruiters when they finish. It’s the same Screen experience candidates know from email; we’re just meeting recruiters in the ATS they already use.”
For existing SmartRecruiters + BrightHire (live interview) customers:
“Nothing changes for your current setup. When you’re ready for Screen, we’ll have you install the updated integration from BrightHire settings—it adds Screen on top of what you already have.”
How it works (simple explanation)
Customer Success enables Screen for the org and confirms SmartRecruiters marketplace / integration availability with the Snake Squad or PM.
An admin installs the integration: BrightHire → Settings → SmartRecruiters → Install (OAuth consent with SmartRecruiters).
In SmartRecruiters, a recruiter opens a candidate on an application and chooses a BrightHire AI Interviewer from the assessment options.
BrightHire sends the Screen invitation (email, and SMS if configured for that AI Interviewer).
The candidate completes the interview on the same BrightHire-hosted link as other Screen flows.
Results write back to SmartRecruiters on the candidate profile when the interview is complete.
When to use this (good customer fits)
SmartRecruiters is the system of record for recruiting (especially enterprise programs like AECOM, SAP, and similar SR-first customers)
High-volume, repeatable screening (campus, offshore hubs, sales pods, hourly/field roles)
Teams that want Screen embedded in the ATS rather than a parallel BrightHire-only invite flow
Orgs already collecting candidate email (and phone, if using SMS invites) on the application
Not a fit yet if: the customer isn’t on SmartRecruiters, doesn’t have Screen enabled, or needs a workflow SmartRecruiters doesn’t support in v1 (confirm with CS before committing).
Suggested CTA
“Let’s get Screen enabled and SmartRecruiters connected so your team can send the first AI interview from a real req.”
“We’ll start with one role or program—same playbook as Greenhouse/Ashby Screen—then expand once completion and recruiter adoption look good.”
“If you’re already on BrightHire + SmartRecruiters for live interviews, we can add Screen when you’re ready—no disruption to what’s working today.”
