Why integrate Parseur with BambooHR?

By integrating Parseur with BambooHR, HR teams can automate the recruitment process and data extraction from HR documents into BambooHR, such as employee onboarding forms, resumes, and timesheet.

How does the Parseur and BambooHR integration work?

  1. A resume is sent to your Parseur mailbox.
  2. Using AI, Parseur extracts specific data fields (e.g., candidate name, position, start date).
  3. The extracted data is then automatically exported to BambooHR, where it is stored.

What you will need

To set up this integration, you will need:

  • A Parseur account with a configured mailbox
  • A BambooHR account
  • A Zapier account

How to integrate Parseur with BambooHR

Step 1: Create a Parseur mailbox

If you haven't already, sign up for a Parseur account and choose an AI-assisted mailbox. Depending on your requirements, you can also create a custom one.

Step 2: Forward a resume to the mailbox

Upon receiving your document, Parseur will ask you to confirm the mailbox type and name. You can rename the mailbox however you want.

Step 3: Parseur extracts data from the resume

Using our powerful AI parser, data is extracted automatically from when Parseur receives the PDF.
