Working with UKG Pro
When you set a candidate’s status to Hired, you’ll see a New Hire form. This form displays all the available employee fields from UKG Pro. Fill in the required fields and confirm. Recruit will send the data to UKG Pro to create the new employee record.
New employee profiles are created with the following details:
First name
Last name
Email
Start date
Job title
Department
Business unit
Location
Other HRIS-specific fields
📝 Note: Due to API limitations, required fields are not always marked as required in Recruit. If a required field is missing, UKG will return an error message showing what needs to be added.
