Dialpad's native Bullhorn integration streamlines HR and sales tasks by allowing seamless management of Bullhorn candidates and leads within Dialpad. Inbound calls trigger Bullhorn to display complete contact details, providing recruiters with a comprehensive view of the caller, and allowing them to enhance candidate and customer experiences.
Important call details, such as inbound/outbound status, caller name, call notes, transcript links, and more, are visible in Bullhorn activities. This ensures that your teams never miss a crucial interaction. The icing on the cake? Your Dialpad and Bullhorn data sync automatically across all devices!
Let's dive into the details.

Bullhorn contact matching
Bullhorn contacts are matched to your Dialpad Company Contacts based on the contact’s primary email, name and phone number.
Bullhorn supports three types of records: a contact, lead, or candidate. If no record is available, you will have to create a new record for Dialpad data to sync with Bullhorn .
Note
First time users can export Bullhorn contacts and import them into Dialpad via the CSV import tool, 500 records at a time.
Once the record is created, you can view it in Bullhorn by hovering over the header area and clicking on the external link icon. This will launch your Bullhorn account. Login is required if you don’t have your Bullhorn account open on your desktop
When matched, you’ll see the contact details in the Bullhorn widget on the right-hand sidebar of the Dialpad app. You’ll also see the 5 most recent open tasks, and 5 most recent calls.
Contacts can be matched at any time, whether you're on an active call or not.
Let’s go over some common contact matching scenarios.
Connect a contact
To connect a contact during an active call, open the Bullhorn widget during the call.
Note
Bullhorn supports automatic contact matching.
To connect a Bullhorn record to a Dialpad contact, simply open the Bullhorn widget on the right-hand sidebar, enter their name into the search bar, and follow the prompts.
Multiple contact match
If multiple Bullhorn contacts are found, your Dialpad will not automatically be matched to a Bullhorn record — you'll need to assign it to the correct one.
From the Bullhorn widget:
Select Create/Connect to a record
Select the correct contact
Select Connect
Rematch a contact
Need to change the matched contact? No problem!
To rematch a contact:
Open the Bullhorn widget
Select Rematch
Enter the name or phone number of the contact
Select Enter
Select the desired contact
Select Connect
Create new Bullhorn record
Three different Bullhorn entity types can be created within Dialpad:
Candidate
Contact
Lead
New records can be created at any time, including during an active call.
To create a new Bullhorn record:
Open the Bullhorn widget on the right-hand sidebar
Select Create new
Select the record type
Enter the record details
All fields are mandatory
If you want to change record type, select Change and choose the record type from the drop down
Create a Bullhorn task
Use Bullhorn tasks to remind yourself (or someone else!) of anything you don't want to forget, such as creating reminders to follow up with a lead or a contact. Tasks can be created at any time (even during an active call) and allow you to track these specific actions and ensure you never miss out on an opportunity.
To create a Bullhorn task:
Open the Bullhorn widget
Select the Options menu in the widget header (that’s the 3 dots)
Select Create task
Enter the task details, priority, and due date
Select Save
The task will now display in the Open Tasks section of the Bullhorn widget.
Up to 5 open tasks will display in the widget. If you have additional tasks associated with the contact/record, select View all to open Bullhorn and review all tasks.
Live call notes
Capture important details and save time by adding notes during live calls, ensuring accurate information and facilitating effective communication within your team. For easy post-call usage, find your Notes in the Bullhorn widget.
To take a note during a live call:
Select the contact/caller's name to open the right-hand app sidebar
Open the Bullhorn widget
Enter the note details bullhorn
Select Save
Notes are autosaved after 30 minutes, and can be finished during the call, or after it ends.
