HireVue MCP for AI. Manage the entire candidate lifecycle in natural conversation.

Q: How do I use the HireVue MCP to create a candidate?

Q: If I need to update an existing candidate, which tool is best?

Use the updatecandidate tool. It lets you modify records like phone numbers or job titles without having to create a whole new entry for that person.

Q: Is getcandidate the best tool for reviewing a full history on an applicant?

Yes. getcandidate fetches not only the current profile details but also associated interaction records and updates tied to that specific candidate ID, giving you a full view of their journey.

Built on the Model Context Protocol (MCP) for Claude, ChatGPT, Cursor, and more

The Model Context Protocol standardizes how applications expose capabilities to LLMs. Instead of operating in isolation, your AI gains direct access to external platforms, live data, and real-world actions through secure, standardized connections.

This connection provides 8 powerful capabilities that interface natively with Claude, ChatGPT, Cursor, and other compatible AI platforms. No middleware. No custom integration required.

The biggest headache in recruiting is context switching.

Today, if you need to check a candidate’s status or add their contact info, you probably have to leave your primary chat tool. You open the ATS tab, find the ID, navigate to the correct section, update the data, and then switch back—losing valuable minutes every single time.

With this MCP, you keep everything in one place. Your agent handles it all. Just talk to it: 'Check candidate John Doe's status.' The system runs `get_candidate` for you and gives you the answer without a single tab change.

Manage your full pipeline with HireVue MCP.

You no longer have to manually check if an interview is scheduled, then open another tool to see who was supposed to attend. The agent orchestrates it: you ask about the status using `get_interview`, and you get a single answer detailing everything.

This means your day isn't spent copying data between systems; it’s spent talking to people. It keeps your focus on hiring.

What your AI can actually do with this

Stop juggling tabs when you're trying to manage candidates. Instead of navigating between an applicant tracking system (ATS) dashboard and your communication tool, this MCP lets you handle the entire hiring workflow right where you're working—in your agent chat. Need to pull up a person’s record? Just ask for their details.

Want to schedule a follow-up interview with Jane Doe? It creates the invitation immediately. Even if a job role changes, you can list all available positions and get instant metadata on specific openings. This connectivity is hosted within the Vinkius catalog, giving your AI agent access to every step of your talent acquisition process without needing complex integrations or custom code.

Who is this actually for?

Any professional who spends time in multiple systems—the recruiter toggling between an ATS and Slack, or the hiring manager needing to check candidate status before a call. This MCP eliminates context switching.

Recruiter

Handles candidate records by creating new profiles using create_candidate after initial calls, then scheduling follow-ups with create_interview.

Hiring Manager

Reviews the status of open roles using list_positions, and quickly checks candidate history using get_candidate to prepare for meetings.

HR Operations Specialist

Automates cleanup by retrieving interview statuses with get_interview or canceling irrelevant appointments using cancel_interview across the entire organization.

What Changes When You Connect

Instantly capture new talent data. Instead of manually entering details, use create_candidate to generate and store a complete profile from simple chat inputs.

Keep your workflow contained. You never have to switch screens to manage scheduling; the agent handles both creating an invite (create_interview) and checking its status (get_interview).

Stay informed on job openings. Use list_positions when you need to quickly see what roles are active, or use get_position if you only know a specific ID.

Maintain data accuracy. Don't rely on spreadsheets for updates; use the update_candidate tool to ensure all personal details are current in the system of record.

Control your pipeline flow. Quickly cancel outdated appointments using cancel_interview, keeping both calendars and records clean.

See it in action

01 01

Onboarding a new applicant after a call

A recruiter just finished an initial phone screen with Alex Jones. Instead of opening the ATS, copying his email, and creating a record, they simply ask their agent: 'Create candidate for Alex Jones, jane.doe@example.com.' The create_candidate tool builds the full record instantly.

02 02

Checking role details before talking to an HM

A hiring manager needs to know if the 'Senior Developer' position is still open and what its requirements are. They ask their agent to list_positions first, then use get_position on the specific ID to get all necessary context.

03 03

Cleaning up old scheduling data

HR Operations realizes several interviews were canceled weeks ago and the records are cluttering the system. They tell their agent to check the status of a bunch of IDs using get_interview, then use cancel_interview on any that shouldn't exist anymore.

04 04

Updating contact info for an existing candidate

A recruiter finds out a promising lead changed their phone number. Instead of logging into the ATS to manually change it, they ask their agent to update_candidate with the new details, keeping everything in one flow.

The honest tradeoffs

Maintaining candidate data across spreadsheets

Anti-pattern

A recruiter tracks potential hires on a spreadsheet, but forgets to update their job title when it changes. When the hiring team reviews the sheet, they are working with stale information.

The Fix

Instead of updating a local file, use the update_candidate tool via your agent. This ensures the source of truth is updated immediately and consistently across all systems.

Searching for job roles by memory

Anti-pattern

A hiring manager vaguely remembers they had an open 'Product Designer' role, but doesn't know its ID or current status. They waste time checking multiple dashboards to confirm it’s still active.

The Fix

Run list_positions first. This shows every active role in one place. Then use get_position on the name you see listed to get all specific metadata.

You invoke create_candidate by simply asking your agent to build the profile for you, providing name and email. The tool takes care of generating and saving the record.

Can I check if an interview is still active using get_interview? +

Yes. If you ask the agent to get_interview, it pulls up the current status, confirming when the meeting was scheduled for or if it was already canceled.

Use the update_candidate tool. It lets you modify records like phone numbers or job titles without having to create a whole new entry for that person.

What should I do if I get an authentication error when using `get_position`? +

The first step is verifying your Base URL and API Key. The MCP relies entirely on these credentials; double-check them against your HireVue developer dashboard to ensure the connection works before running any queries.

When using `create_interview`, what data fields are required for a successful invitation? +

You must provide at least the candidate ID, the position ID, and concrete date/time parameters. The system needs these three specific pieces of information to generate a valid calendar entry.

How do I check the status of a specific interview? +

Simply use the get_interview tool with the specific Interview ID. The agent will retrieve the current status (e.g., 'Scheduled', 'Completed'), candidate info, and relevant timestamps.

Yes. Use the update_candidate tool. You can modify the firstName, lastName, email, or externalId by providing the Candidate ID and the new values.

Is it possible to cancel an interview invitation via AI? +

Yes, you can cancel an invitation using the cancel_interview tool. Just provide the Interview ID, and the agent will process the cancellation in HireVue.
