Connecting Merge to Lever lets your team send code review assessments and track results without ever leaving the candidate profile. Once the integration is active, Lever becomes your primary interface for the entire assessment workflow — from sending the invite to reviewing the scorecard.

​
What the integration does

  • Send invites from Lever — trigger a Merge assessment invite directly from a Lever candidate profile with a single click.
  • Track status in real time — assessment status updates (pending, in progress, completed) appear as Lever feedback entries, so your team always knows where a candidate stands.
  • Receive results automatically — the Merge scorecard link is attached to the candidate record as soon as the session ends, with no manual steps required.

​
Prerequisites

Before you begin, make sure you have the following:
  • A Lever account with Admin or Partner access
  • A Merge company account with admin permissions

​
Setup

1

Open Integrations in Merge

Go to Settings > Integrations in your Merge dashboard and select Lever from the list of supported systems.
2

Authorize the Connection

You will be redirected to Lever to authorize Merge’s access. Sign in with your Lever admin account and grant the requested permissions. Lever will redirect you back to Merge once authorization is complete.
3

Configure Sync Settings

Choose which Lever stages should trigger a Merge invite — for example, the Technical Screen stage — and specify which fields should receive the result when the assessment is complete.
4

Test the Integration

Send a test invite from a candidate profile in Lever to confirm the connection is working and that results flow back to the candidate record correctly.

​
Sending invites from Lever

After setup, an Invite to Merge action appears on the candidate profile inside Lever. Click it to send the assessment invite without leaving Lever. The candidate receives the invite by email, and their status updates in both Lever and Merge as they progress through the assessment.

​
Viewing results in Lever

When the candidate completes the assessment, a feedback entry is automatically added to their Lever profile. The entry includes a summary of the result and a direct link to the full Merge scorecard, so your hiring team can review the outcome without switching tools.
Set up an automated Lever stage rule to prompt your team to send a Merge invite when a candidate reaches the technical screen stage. This keeps the process consistent and reduces the chance of a candidate moving forward without completing the assessment.
