Zoom Integration

What is the Recruitkar Zoom Integration?

The Recruitkar Zoom integration lets recruiters create Zoom meetings for candidate interviews directly from Recruitkar, using their own Zoom account. Each recruiter connects their personal Zoom account through Zoom’s secure OAuth flow, and every interview meeting is created on that connected account — Recruitkar never uses a shared or admin Zoom account on your behalf.

What features does it provide?

• Creates a Zoom meeting link automatically when you move a candidate to interview.
• Emails the candidate the join link automatically.
• Sends the join link via WhatsApp when a phone number is on file for the candidate.
• Applies the meeting options you choose (such as waiting room, join-before-host, or recording) to the meeting it creates.
• Lets both recruiter and candidate join from the Zoom app or browser — no extra setup required.

You can connect Zoom from inside Recruitkar in a few steps:

1. 1Log in to your Recruitkar account.
2. 2Open Integrations from the navigation, then go to Video Conferencing.
3. 3Select Zoom and click Connect.
4. 4You’ll be redirected to Zoom to sign in with your own Zoom account.
5. 5Review and grant the requested permissions (see Permissions Requested below).
6. 6You’ll be returned to Recruitkar, where Zoom now shows as Connected along with your host account email.

Schedule interviews and create Zoom meetings

1. 1Open any job’s Candidates board and tick the candidate(s) you want to interview.
2. 2Click Move to Interview — a Zoom meeting is created on your connected Zoom account.
3. 3The join link is automatically emailed to the candidate, and sent via WhatsApp if a phone number is on file.

Manage meeting links

• Any meeting options you select (waiting room, join-before-host, recording, and similar settings) are applied to the meeting Recruitkar creates.
• Meetings created through Recruitkar also appear in your Zoom account under Meetings, where you can view or edit them directly.

Disconnect and reconnect Zoom

• You can disconnect Zoom at any time (see How to Remove the App below).
• To reconnect, return to Integrations → Video Conferencing → Zoom and click Connect again to re-authorize.

When you connect Zoom, Recruitkar requests only the minimum permissions needed to create and manage interview meetings on your behalf:

• View and manage your meetings (meeting:write): To create Zoom meetings for the interviews you schedule in Recruitkar.
• Update your meetings (meeting:update): To apply the settings you choose — such as waiting room, join-before-host, or recording — to meetings Recruitkar creates.
• Delete your meetings (meeting:delete): To cancel or remove a meeting that Recruitkar created when an interview is cancelled.
• View your user profile (user:read): To read your basic account information (name, email, and account ID) so we can show which Zoom account is connected.

Recruitkar uses these permissions solely to create and manage the interview meetings you initiate through Recruitkar. It does not access your recordings, chat, contacts, webinars, or any meetings it did not create. For details on how we handle data, see our Privacy Policy.

You can remove the Zoom integration in either of two ways:

From Recruitkar

1. 1Go to Integrations → Video Conferencing → Zoom.
2. 2Open the ⋮ (more options) menu and click Disconnect, then confirm.

Recruitkar immediately revokes its access token with Zoom and deletes the stored connection. Meetings already created on your Zoom account are not deleted.

From Zoom

1. 1Sign in to the Zoom App Marketplace and open Manage → Added Apps (or Installed Apps).
2. 2Find Recruitkar and click Remove.

Removing the app from either side immediately revokes Recruitkar’s access to your Zoom account. No further meetings can be created until you reconnect.
