Import position from Ashby
When creating a new position, you have the option of importing one from Ashby. Selecting the drop-down imports the job title of the position, and automatically links it with the new position on cord.
People you start conversations with on cord about this position, will now be auto-forwarded to the associated position on Ashby, and arrive in the Leads section of the linked position.
Link existing cord positions to Ashby
You are also able to associate any position on cord with an existing Ashby one. Clicking on a position and scrolling all the way down to the section called ‘Link your ATS position’, a drop down will provide the available positions. Once a position has been selected, scroll down and click on “Save Position” to complete the association.
Automatically send candidates to Ashby
With the positions linked, candidates will now automatically be sent to the associated positions in Ashby when you start a conversation. A conversation is started when you message a candidate and they accept, or vice versa.

If you do not wish for your candidates to be automatically forwarded from cord to Ashby, you can turn this off in your Settings. The position will still be linked with the position on Ashby, and you can manually send the person to that position in Ashby by pressing the ATS position in the top right corner of the conversation.
