Note: This integration is available only for certain Indeed customers on a specific plan. You should check in with your Indeed Account Manager to see if you qualify for the beta.
Candidate Sync is an Indeed feature that automatically transfers candidates' applications from your jobs posted on Indeed to Workable by linking Indeed jobs with Workable jobs.
To make use of this feature, please follow these steps:
- Confirm with your Indeed Account Manager that you are eligible to use the integration. Some of the requirements are:
- Your jobs must be hosted directly on Indeed or posted to Indeed via Enable Indeed Apply.
- Your account must have opted into the Employer Home dashboard and interface.
- Once confirmed, contact our Support team to enable the integration for your Workable account.
- Once enabled, the Indeed Candidate Sync integration will be available on the Integrations page in Workable.

Linking jobs
You can link jobs posted on Indeed to Workable published jobs by navigating to your Jobs management page:
