SEEK Integration in ELMO

M
Written by Michael Ho

Settings up a Seek Integration in ELMO allows you to seamlessly post job ads directly to Seek via the ELMO Recruitment module. 

How to Connect Your SEEK Account?

Before connecting your Seek Account in ELMO:

  1. Submit the SEEK form: Request SEEK to link your SEEK account to ELMO by completing this SEEK form.
  2. Await Confirmation: Following your form submission, SEEK will set up your account with ELMO permissions.
  3. Receive Your Advertiser ID: Once the integration is complete, SEEK will send you an email containing your unique Advertiser ID number.
❗

If this is the first SEEK account being linked to ELMO, you will need to provide the Call-back URL to the SEEK API team via their contact form. SEEK requires this URL, and it only needs to be provided once. 

Your unique Call-back URL has the following format:

Call-back URL Format: https://[YourELMODomain]/careers/login-seek/callback

 

To connect your SEEK Account to ELMO:

1. Navigate to Administration > Recruitment > SEEK Channel Configuration

2. Click New Account

3. Enter your SEEK account details, including:

  1. Advertiser ID: A unique number allocated by SEEK to identify this account.

    ⚠️ Note that your Advertiser ID is not the same as your Account ID number. If you are unsure of your Advertiser ID, please reach out to SEEK to confirm your Advertiser ID.
  2. Activated: The account must be active to become available for job ad posting. Select Yes to activate the account.
  3. Name: The display name for this SEEK account in ELMO.
  4. Integration Type: Select the integration type that your SEEK account has been set up to use with ELMO, options include:
    • Apply with SEEK (candidates are redirected from SEEK to apply on your ELMO Careers Portal)

    • SEEK Optimised Apply (candidates apply on SEEK and the applications are exported to your ELMO account

      📝 If you are unsure of the integration type, please check with SEEK to confirm the type of integration your account has been set up with.

4. Click Save

Apply with Seek 2.0

Seek allows you to pre-fill some of the application form fields using the candidate’s SEEK profile information. 

The information that is pre-filled includes:

Pre-filled into the Login / Create Account page:

  1. Name

  2. Email address

Pre-filled into the Application form:

  1. Resume

  2. Suburb

  3. Country

  4. Address

  5. Post Code

📝

These fields will still appear blank if information is not present on the candidate’s SEEK profile, or if the candidate declined access to their SEEK account after clicking the ‘Apply with SEEK’ button.

In the previous version of Apply with SEEK, only the Resume would be pre-filled into the application form, so this new version is a significant time-saver for candidates.
