UKG Pro Recruiting integration
AI Candidate Screening for UKG Pro Recruiting
Screened scores every resume in a UKG Pro Recruiting Opportunity against your real requirements, then runs the AI phone or text screen before a recruiter ever calls — results syncing to the candidate record in the Applications tab.
Where Screened fits in UKG Pro Recruiting
UKG Pro Recruiting is the applicant tracking and talent acquisition module inside the UKG Pro HCM suite (the enterprise platform formerly known as UltiPro), used alongside UKG Pro's payroll, HR, and workforce management tools.
Recruiters post and manage job Opportunities, review applicants inside each Opportunity's Applications tab, move candidates through a configurable Hiring Stage process, and hand accepted Offers off to onboarding, all inside the same HCM record the employee lives in after they're hired.
It's especially common at mid-market and enterprise employers with large hourly or frontline workforces, including healthcare systems, retailers, manufacturers, and hospitality groups, who want one system spanning requisition to paycheck.
What Screened takes off your plate in UKG Pro Recruiting
A retail, healthcare, or manufacturing Opportunity can pull in hundreds of applicants within days through the career site, Indeed, and LinkedIn postings. Instead of opening each candidate's Presence profile one at a time, Screened scores every resume against that Opportunity's requirements once it arrives, so the Applications tab is already ranked by fit before a recruiter opens it.
UKG Pro Recruiting's native Candidate Match feature ranks applicants using relevance scores built from configured business rules, largely keyword and minimum-qualification matching.
Screened reads the actual resume text against the job's real requirements and returns a 0-100 score plus extracted qualifications, red flags, and years of experience, giving recruiters a substantive read on fit instead of a keyword count.
For high-applicant-volume roles like warehouse, patient care, or store associate positions, recruiters often can't call everyone back fast enough, and candidates accept a competing offer first. Screened's AI voice or text screen can reach out to new applicants automatically, producing a transcript and per-question scores, with the results link and a hire/no-hire recommendation posted to the candidate's record before a recruiter ever dials.
Recruiters normally select applicants from the Applications tab and bulk-update their Hiring Stage as review happens. With Screened's score, recommendation, and results already recorded on each candidate's record, deciding who moves up during a surge is a scan of ranked results instead of an unread stack — the bulk update itself stays the recruiter's one click.
How Screened works with UKG Pro Recruiting
A candidate applies to a job Opportunity on your UKG Pro Recruiting career site (or a recruiter adds them), and Screened picks up the resume once it lands in that requisition's Applications tab.
Screened's AI reads the resume against that Opportunity's actual requirements, not just keyword rules, and returns a 0-100 score, extracted qualifications, red flags, and years of experience.
For roles where you want a conversation before a recruiter gets involved, Screened runs an AI voice or text screening interview and produces a transcript, per-question scores, and a hire/no-hire recommendation.
The score, recommendation, and results link get written back onto the candidate's record in UKG Pro Recruiting as an activity note, so recruiters and hiring managers review everything from the same Applications tab they already use.
Built around how UKG Pro Recruiting works
Screened fits the objects and stages your team already uses in UKG Pro Recruiting.
UKG Pro Recruiting's name for an open job record, configured with screening criteria, compensation, and a recruiting process, then posted to the career site and job boards. UKG's own documentation and most recruiters use 'Opportunity' and 'requisition' interchangeably.
The tab inside an Opportunity's workspace where recruiters view, filter, rank, and act on every applicant tied to that requisition, separate from the Job Req. Info tab that holds the position's own details.
The point (shown as 'Step' in some list views) an applicant currently occupies within a requisition's configured recruiting process, such as under review, screening, interview, or offer. Recruiters mass-select applicants to move them between stages.
A saved, personal grouping of applicants, created with 'Add pool', that a recruiter uses to track candidates across requisitions, such as silver-medalist candidates or a running bench for a role that reopens often.
UKG Pro Recruiting's built-in applicant-ranking feature, which scores and filters candidates against a requisition using configurable business rules such as required keywords or minimum qualifications.
The compliance-tracked action recruiters take to formally reject or disqualify an applicant with a reason code, distinct from simply changing their Hiring Stage, used to support EEO/OFCCP recordkeeping.

Common questions
UKG Pro Recruiting ships with a native Candidate Match feature that ranks and filters applicants using relevance scores from configured business rules, such as required keywords or minimum-qualification thresholds. That's rules-based matching, not a tool that reads and judges a full resume the way a recruiter would. Screened adds that layer on top: it reads each resume against your actual job requirements and returns a 0-100 score with extracted qualifications and red flags, written back onto the candidate's record in UKG Pro Recruiting.
Yes. Screened can trigger an AI voice or text screening interview once an applicant lands in an Opportunity, or once they reach a Hiring Stage you choose, then post the results link, per-question scores, and a hire/no-hire recommendation to their record before a recruiter opens the Applications tab.
Retail, healthcare, and manufacturing Opportunities in UKG Pro Recruiting can pull in hundreds of applicants from the career site and job boards within days. Screened scores, and optionally phone- or text-screens, every applicant automatically as they arrive, so recruiters open an already-ranked Applications tab instead of working through a raw, unsorted applicant list one resume at a time.
No. Screened runs earlier in the funnel: it scores resumes and can conduct a first-round AI phone or text interview before a candidate ever reaches a live interview, then syncs its score and recommendation into UKG Pro Recruiting alongside Candidate Match's own ranking. Interviewers still use UKG Pro Recruiting's Interview Scorecard templates for the human interview stages that follow.
You link your UKG Pro Recruiting account to Screened directly — authorize it once and jobs, candidates, and screening results sync between the two. No developer work, no custom API project, and nothing to install. Screening scores, notes, and recommendations post back onto the candidate in UKG Pro Recruiting automatically.
Screened highlights potential concerns in resumes and checks interview answers against the job requirements. Your team can review the written reasons and interview transcript, then ask follow-up questions about experience that needs clarification.
