Ashby's integration with Canditech allows you to seamlessly add Canditech's assessment to a job's interview plan. In this article we will cover how to:

Enable the Ashby/Canditech Integration

To start, navigate to the Admin tab from the Homepage of your Ashby account.

Click on Integrations on the left-hand panel.

Search for Canditech and select it.

Click Enable Canditech

Select โ€œAshby API Keyโ€ and create a new API key.

In the search bar, title your API Key "Canditech" and click Create API Key "Canditech".

Your Ashby API Key will be created. Click on Copy in the button.

Navigate to Canditech Platform > Settings > Integrations.

Note: The Settings page is only accessible to admin users.

Open the Ashby drop-down and select Set Ashby API Key.


Paste your Ashby API Key and select Save.

Once saved, select Generate Canditech API Key.

Copy your Canditech API Key.

Return to your Ashby Account.

In the Canditech API Key field, paste the API Key you copied from the Canditech platform.

Your integration is now enabled!

Add Canditech Step to Jobโ€™s Interview Plan

Once the Ashby/Canditech integration is enabled for your organization, you will be able to add a Canditech assessment as a step in your Job's Interview Plan.

In your Ashby Account, navigate to the Relevant Job for which you would like to add a Canditech assessment.

Once inside the Job Page, select Interview Plans from the left-hand panel.

Select the stage in which you would like to add a Canditech Assessment (you can add it to an existing stage or alternatively create a new stage).

Then, click Activity on the relevant stage.

Once you click Activity in your relevant interview stage, select the Canditech activity from the right-hand panel.

You will see all the assessment from your Canditech account. Select the relevant assessment for the role in the drop-down.

Once your Canditech Assessment is selected, click Add.

Your Canditech Assessment has been added to your Interview Plan.

Send and review the test

When a candidate is moved into the Interview Stage that contains the Canditech Assessment, within the candidate's page, you will see the Canditech Assessment listed under "Current Activities".

Select Start Assessment > Start to send the Canditech Assessment directly to the candidate. The candidate will receive an email invitation to begin the assessment.

Note: When you send an assessment from Ashby, the invitation is actually sent by Canditech.

Once the candidate has submitted their assessment, their profile will contain a link to view the submitted assessment on Canditech, along with the assessment score, scores of each section, hiring managers comments and final decision.
