Data Migration
Switch ATS platforms without putting your recruiting business on hold.
Your ATS contains years of candidate relationships, client history, jobs, notes, activities and recruiting knowledge. Moving it should not feel like a leap of faith.
Our migration team guides the transition from your first backup and test conversion through review, adjustments, final conversion and go-live – while your recruiters keep working.
You stay in control: review your own converted data before approving the live move.

Questions about switching to TE Recruit?
Can I see my converted data before going live?
Yes. The process includes a separate test environment where you can review the initial conversion and provide feedback before approving the final live move.
Can we keep using our current ATS during the migration?
That is the recommended path. Your team can continue working in the current system while the test conversion is prepared, reviewed and adjusted.
What happens to activity created after our first backup?
Once you approve the conversion and are ready to cut over, the migration team requests a fresh final backup so recent activity can be included in the live conversion.
What if something in the test conversion needs to change?
You provide detailed feedback, the migration team reviews it, and agreed adjustments are made before you approve the final conversion.
Can custom fields be migrated?
Custom fields and unique configurations are reviewed during planning and mapping. The exact approach depends on the structure and format of your source data.
How long does a migration take?
Timing depends on the source system, file format, database complexity and current migration workload. Your migration lead will keep you informed as the project progresses.
Who manages our migration?
A migration project lead coordinates the process with the technical migration team and the people helping your team onboard, train and succeed in TE Recruit.
