Frequently Asked Questions

Can I export candidate records from Breezy HR before switching ATS?

Yes. Breezy HR documents individual and bulk CSV exports for positions you can access, with selected fields and links to resume PDFs. Full company-level candidate data requires Admin access, while full position-level data requires Hiring Manager access. Custom Pro data services are distinct from this ordinary export workflow, and the documented CSV export should not be treated as a complete account backup.

Does Breezy HR delete candidates after 30 days on the free plan?

No: the 30-day rule limits candidate access on Bootstrap, rather than establishing automatic deletion after 30 days. Breezy HR's retention help page says older candidate records can become accessible again after upgrading to a paid plan. Export needed records while you can access them, and distinguish this free-plan restriction from the separate rules for cancellation, inactivity and deletion requests.

Can candidates schedule their own interviews in Breezy HR using our existing calendars?

Yes. Startup and higher plans include calendar connections and candidate self-scheduling, with support for Google and Microsoft calendars. Breezy HR also supports its built-in video meetings and connections to Zoom, Google Meet and Microsoft Teams. The separate beta AI Interview Analysis add-on cannot be used with scheduling links, so do not assume self-scheduled interviews qualify for that analysis.

Can our interview panel collect structured feedback in Breezy HR?

Yes, custom scorecards are available on Growth, Business and Pro. Hiring-team members can record ratings and comments on candidate profiles, while Admin permission is required to create or edit scorecards and Hiring Manager permission is required to view Team Scorecards. This gives the panel a documented feedback workflow without making its ratings an objective measure of candidate suitability.

Can Breezy HR automatically reject applicants based on an AI score?

Applicant Insights cannot automatically move candidates to a disqualified stage based on their AI score. The help guide documents optional advancement of new applicants who meet a minimum score, using paid Breezy Intelligence credits, despite broader no-advancement wording on the Workable comparison page. Breezy HR's terms require review of AI output and say it should not be the sole basis for recruiting or employment decisions; this restriction is specific to AI scoring and is not a claim that all other screening automation is disabled.

Can we build a custom integration with the Breezy HR API on a standard plan?

Breezy HR lists API access as an option within Custom Pro, rather than an included capability of its standard published tiers. Confirm the API entitlement and commercial terms for your intended integration before committing. A supported native connector or ordinary CSV export is a separate capability and does not establish API access.

Can Breezy HR transfer successful candidates to our existing HR system?

Yes, Breezy HR documents HRIS connections for adding new hires to systems including BambooHR, Gusto and ADP Workforce Now. HRIS integrations require Business or Pro, and the connected system may require its own account or subscription. Check the chosen connector's supported fields and handoff process rather than assuming complete, continuous synchronization of every candidate record.

Does Breezy HR include onboarding and performance management in its ATS subscription?

They should be assessed as separate purchases. Breezy Onboard is an optional add-on requiring a Hire subscription, with new-hire tasks, document workflows and a portal. Perform is a separately priced performance-management product, so an ATS subscription alone does not establish access to both products.

How does Breezy HR compare with Workable when we also need employee administration?

Breezy HR combines recruiting with optional Onboard and separate Perform products, and offers HRIS handoffs on Business or Pro. Workable offers Recruiting and an HR product covering employee records, onboarding, time off and time tracking. Compare the complete module configuration and any required add-ons: Workable is relevant when consolidating employee administration, while Breezy HR's documented handoffs are relevant when retaining an existing HRIS.

Can Breezy HR meet our recruiting reporting requirements without Custom Pro?

Startup and higher plans include standard recruiting reports, while Custom Pro offers advanced reporting as an option. Before purchasing, ask Breezy HR to demonstrate your required metrics, filters and reporting outputs using a representative workflow. Public documentation of reporting alone does not establish that every custom analysis your team needs is included.
