Supported read and filter fields
Select Offshore candidate sync maps these Bullhorn fields into tenant-scoped typed sourcing attributes:
The certification sync resolves candidate-certification association records to certification names. It includes non-deleted association records regardless of status or expiration date. This intentionally pins the current certification lifecycle policy.
All five fields are available in the sourcing filter drawer after their values have synced. Current Job Title, Off Limits Status, Skills, and Certifications are strict: candidates without a value for the selected field do not match. Date Available is the exception: candidates without a Date Available value still match so they can be sourced and enriched.
Natural-language support
The recruiter prompt above sourcing results can add, replace, or clear these five filters. This support is limited to Select Offshore and is disabled when organization Rules of Engagement lock ATS filters. Date language maps as follows:
Current Job Title, Off Limits Status, Skills, and Certifications are resolved case-insensitively to values already stored for Select Offshore. Multiple Skills or Certifications use the existing multi-select any-match behavior.
The initial automatic job-description inference remains unchanged and does not infer these ATS fields. When a recruiter or admin selects Date Available, its positive date filters include candidates with a matching date or no Date Available value. Other human-requested Bullhorn filters continue to exclude candidates with missing values.
Sorting
Sorting by these fields is not included. The sourcing result list is still ordered by requirement match and score, and the existing search request has no typed-attribute sort contract. Adding sort support requires a product decision about field priority, missing values, direction, and multi-value fields such as Skills and Certifications.Write-back follow-up
Write-back is outside this delivery:- Skills write-back is feasible through the Bullhorn candidate picker field once update ownership and merge behavior are defined. Bullhorn associates and disassociates skills as separate operations and rejects an associate call that includes an already-associated skill, so a write must diff against the candidate’s current skills rather than sending the desired set.
- Certifications write-back is blocked on a product decision, not on integration work. Select Offshore’s Bullhorn marks both status and expiration date as required on the candidate-certification association entity, so Bullhorn rejects any record created without them, and an interview does not reliably produce either value. The deletion flag is read-only, so removing a certification needs an explicit delete rather than a field update. Certification write-back therefore needs agreed status and expiration rules before it can be built.
Deployment dependency
Deploy the sync code before running the one-time backfill. Run the backfill without--apply first, review the totals and failures, then run the approved --apply. Natural-language filters only accept fields and canonical values that have already been registered and synced locally.
