Oracle Recruiting Cloud

Introduction

This guide provides a comprehensive overview of the steps required to establish integration with Stepstone. Through a strategic partnership with Oracle Recruiting Cloud, Stepstone Connect enables job seekers to effortlessly apply for positions listed on Stepstone’s job boards. All applications submitted via Stepstone Connect are transmitted directly to Oracle Recruiting Cloud for streamlined processing.

Please follow the instructions below within your Oracle Recruiting Cloud portal to activate the integration. Should you have any questions or require assistance, please contact the Stepstone Team.

Step 1: Provide User Account Credentials

To activate Stepstone Connect, the Recruiting Administrator must provide user account credentials to Stepstone for data synchronization purposes. Stepstone will use this account to authenticate with Oracle Recruiting Cloud (ORC).

The table below outlines the necessary privileges required for granting user account access to Stepstone. For detailed information on these privileges, refer to the Security chapter in the respective partner integration guides available on My Oracle Support (Doc ID 2627681.1).

Once the user account has been created, please provide the credentials to your Stepstone customer support representative. If you require assistance with creating this user account, contact your Oracle support representative for guidance.
