What are Webhooks?

Webhooks allow you to receive real-time notifications whenever a new event happens in your Hirempire account. Instead of polling the API to check for updates, Hirempire will instantly send an HTTP POST request to your specified endpoint as soon as an event occurs.
Webhooks are the most efficient way to stay in sync with your Hirempire data. You receive updates the moment they happen — no delays, no repeated requests.

​
How It Works

1

Create a Webhook

Go to hirempire.com/webhooks to create and manage your webhooks. You’ll provide an endpoint URL where Hirempire will send event notifications.
2

Select Events

Choose which events you want to subscribe to. You can listen for job updates, new applicants, CV processing completions, meetings, and more.
3

Verify the Challenge

When you register your webhook, Hirempire sends a challenge request to verify your endpoint. Your server must return the challenge value to confirm ownership. See the Challenge Verification page for details.
4

Receive Events

Once verified, your endpoint will receive POST requests in real time whenever a subscribed event occurs. Each request includes a JSON payload with the event type, timestamp, and relevant data.

​
Webhook Payload Structure

Every webhook payload follows a consistent structure: 
{
  "event": "event_type",
  "timestamp": "2026-01-30T00:14:56.395Z",
  ...event-specific data
}
FieldTypeDescription
eventstringThe event type identifier (e.g. job_added)
timestampstringISO 8601 timestamp of when the event occurred
The rest of the payload varies depending on the event type. See Event Types and Responses for full details.
