Connect Wizehire MCP to Claude Desktop
Create your Vinkius account to connect Wizehire to Claude Desktop and route execution through our secure gateway. The platform manages server hosting, runtime updates, and security layers. Configuration requires no manual server provisioning.
Check API health for the MCP Server
Need to know if the connection's good? Use `check_api_health` to verify that the Wizehire API is actually working. This tells you immediately if your agent can talk to the platform, saving you time when you need a quick status check. Before running complex tasks, this tool confirms connectivity across all 12 available operations. It's a fast way to validate the entire MCP Server setup before you start building.
Manage candidates and job listings
The `list_candidates` tool lets your AI agent pull a list of every candidate Wizehire has on file. You can then grab specifics for any person using `get_candidate_details`, which pulls deep data points about a specific applicant. Want to see what jobs are open? Just run `list_active_job_postings`. These tools give you instant context, so your agent never works with outdated or incomplete hiring information.
Update candidate stages using Wizehire
The `update_candidate_hiring_stage` tool lets you move a person from one step to the next. For instance, if they finish an interview, your agent moves them to 'Interview' or 'Hired'. This keeps your records accurate and up-to-date. It’s not just about moving names around; it's managing the state of the entire hiring process. Your agent controls which defined stage—like 'Interview' or 'Offer Extended'—the candidate sits in.
