Eploy + The Cognitive Integration
The Cognitive integrates with Eploy so AI interviewing and sourcing run alongside the workflow UK in-house talent acquisition teams already use: you import active candidates from the Eploy stage you choose, invite them to a live AI interview, and write each score, summary and report link back to the candidate as a note. Eploy is one of The Cognitive's 60+ ATS integrations, all connected through one unified integration from the dashboard. Your Eploy stages and decisions stay yours: the integration never moves or rejects a candidate.
What does the Eploy integration do?
- Stage-based import: you choose which Eploy stage feeds The Cognitive, and a sync brings those active candidates in for interview invites.
- Results go back as a note: each interviewed candidate imported from Eploy gets the score, summary and report link added to their record, where the integration can write notes.
- Stages untouched: nothing in Eploy moves or gets rejected by the integration; your team makes every call.
- Outbound too: AI sourcing searches ~900M public profiles for people who never applied, so the pool is not limited to who is already in Eploy.
- Your workflow, your stage: pick any Eploy stage to import from, however your team has configured it.
- No parallel system of record: Eploy stays the source of truth; The Cognitive adds the interview and evidence layer.
The Cognitive in an Eploy workflow
Eploy is a UK applicant tracking system that pitches itself as "the ATS that you can flex and adapt", with onboarding, referrals and recruitment marketing built in. Its customers are in-house recruiting teams.
Eploy teams usually import from an early screening stage for high-volume roles and invite that week's applicants together.
Eploy lets each team shape its own workflow, so the stage you import from in The Cognitive is whichever one your process calls first review. The rubric is fixed per role and the questions adapt live to each answer, which keeps 2 sites hiring for the same job on one standard. Hiring managers get a read-only report link with scores, written feedback and the recording.
How does candidate sourcing get into Eploy?
That is the gap The Cognitive's AI sourcing fills. A search brief written in plain English runs across ~900M public profiles with contact details enriched from 30+ sources; the role becomes a durable role pool that keeps everyone each search finds. Each candidate a search returns costs 1 credit, an email reveal 5 and a phone number 10, charged only on a successful reveal, so browsing a search result is cheap and only the shortlist you act on is not. People you source stay in The Cognitive's role pool and are not written into Eploy automatically; you decide who to interview and who to add to Eploy yourself.
Eploy fills its pipeline from your careers site, job boards and employee referrals; The Cognitive searches ~900M public profiles for people none of those channels reached. Those people stay in The Cognitive's role pool and are not pushed into Eploy automatically.
How does setup work?
- 1. Connect: open the integration from The Cognitive dashboard, choose Eploy, and sign in with the credentials Eploy asks for.
- 2. Set the stage: select the Eploy stage that feeds candidates into The Cognitive.
- 3. Use it: a sync brings candidates in, you invite them, and finished interviews go back to Eploy as notes with the score and report link.
- Eploy stays in charge of stages and decisions; The Cognitive adds the interview and the note.
Why teams add The Cognitive to their ATS
Eploy is a system of record, not a sourcer or an interviewer. The Cognitive finds people across ~900M public profiles and interviews them live with AI, scoring every criterion 1 to 5 against the rubric you set, then writes the score and report link back to Eploy. AI Sourcing starts at $49/month and AI Interview at $99/month.
Frequently Asked Questions
Does Eploy have AI interviews or video screening?
Eploy's homepage does not describe video or AI interviews. It leads with recruitment marketing, employee referrals and onboarding, and promises control over "your workflows, processes, communications". The Cognitive adds a live, two-way AI video interview of 10 or 20 minutes in 9 languages. Nothing is rejected automatically, and integrity flags are logged, not scored, so the decision stays with your team in Eploy.
Does Eploy source candidates outside your applicants?
Eploy sources through referrals and job advertising. Its site says "Source Top Talent through Employee Referrals" and "Post vacancies to 1000s of Job Boards", with talent pools for past contacts. The Cognitive finds people none of those channels reached, across ~900M public profiles, and on the Sourcing Pro plan runs email and SMS sequences to them. Sourced people are not pushed into Eploy automatically.
Will The Cognitive work with a custom Eploy workflow?
Yes, because you choose the stage. Eploy's homepage says "everything is in your control", from workflows to communications to hiring managers, so no 2 teams set it up alike. The Cognitive imports from whichever Eploy stage you name. Hiring managers then get a read-only report link with scores, written feedback and the recording, without the transcript.
Does The Cognitive integrate with Eploy?
Yes. The Cognitive imports active candidates from the Eploy stage you choose, you invite them to a live AI interview, and the score, summary and report link go back to Eploy as a note. It is one of The Cognitive's 60+ ATS integrations.
Can The Cognitive source candidates into Eploy?
The Cognitive sources candidates alongside Eploy: it searches ~900M public profiles from a plain-English brief and enriches contact details from 30+ sources. Sourced people stay in The Cognitive's role pool and are not written into Eploy automatically. Search results cost 1 credit per candidate returned; an email reveal costs 5 credits and a phone number 10, charged only on a successful reveal.
Which Eploy stage should feed AI interviews?
Eploy teams usually import from an early screening stage for high-volume roles and invite that week's applicants together. You choose the source stage in The Cognitive, each role can use its own rubric, and every decision after the interview stays with your team in Eploy.
Do I need engineering help to connect Eploy?
No. You connect Eploy from The Cognitive dashboard in one integration window, using the admin credentials Eploy asks for, then pick the stage to import from.
Which plans include ATS integration?
ATS integration is included on the Scale and Pro interview plans, which are billed monthly and can be cancelled anytime.
