Keep Paycom for payroll, run hiring on Pinpoint

Pinpoint is a dedicated applicant tracking system that integrates natively with Paycom. Keep Paycom for payroll and HR, and run your hiring on Pinpoint. New hires flow straight into Paycom with no re-keying, and you can bring your existing Paycom jobs and candidates across when you move.

Does Paycom have an applicant tracking system?

Yes. Paycom includes a built-in applicant tracking module inside its payroll and HR suite. It posts jobs and collects applications, so it covers the basics. Because it's one module inside a payroll platform rather than a dedicated hiring product, teams hiring at any scale or being asked to improve efficiency often look to a dedicated recruitment platform or ATS that integrates with Paycom. That's where Pinpoint comes in.

How does the Pinpoint and Paycom integration work?

Pinpoint connects to Paycom through a direct, native integration, with no third-party middleware or outside integrator. When you hire a candidate in Pinpoint, their details pass straight into Paycom, including:

  • Name
  • Contat information
  • Payroll information
  • Position information

That way your team never re-keys data between the two systems. Payroll and HR stay on Paycom. Hiring runs on Pinpoint. Pinpoint is one of very few applicant tracking systems that integrates directly with Paycom without requiring middleware or third party support.

What you get when you run hiring on Pinpoint

Pinpoint is an all-in-one recruitment platform that brings the whole hiring process into one system.

  • A pre-built Paycom integration that's easy to configure.
  • A full recruitment platform across Plan, Attract, Engage, Select, and Onboard.
  • The platform goes deep too, including native background checks, one-way video interviews, reference checks, hiring manager intake automation, and interview transcription all in one system, which is rare to find inside a single ATS.
  • A customizable careers-site CMS. Candidates apply without creating an account or password, which matters because around 60% abandon an application that's too long or complex.
  • AI powered recruitment software: the AI Hiring Copilot, transparent match scoring that shows its reasoning, and candidate filters, with a person in the loop at every decision. Pinpoint isn't just another ATS with AI. Pinpoint has invested heavily in creating the conditions under which automation and AI deliver.
  • Deep, recruitment-specific automation across your hiring workflows.
  • A named Customer Success Manager, access to a Technical Account Management team, and human support that answers in under two minutes on average.

Paycom applicant tracking FAQs

Is Paycom an ATS?

Paycom is primarily a payroll and HR platform that includes a built-in applicant tracking module. It can post jobs and collect applications, but it isn't a dedicated ATS. Organizations that hire at scale, or with complex hiring needs often pair Paycom with a specialist applicant tracking system like Pinpoint.

Do I have to stop using Paycom to use Pinpoint?

No. Pinpoint is built to work alongside Paycom. You keep Paycom for payroll and HR, and run hiring on Pinpoint. The two connect through a native integration, so new hires move from Pinpoint into Paycom automatically.

Does Pinpoint integrate with Paycom without middleware?

Yes. Pinpoint has a direct, native Paycom integration, so you don't need a third-party connector or an outside integrator. Pinpoint is one of very few applicant tracking systems that connect to Paycom directly.

Can I bring my Paycom candidates and jobs into Pinpoint?

Yes. When you move to Pinpoint, you can bring your recruitment data across from Paycom, including open jobs, candidates and their stage in your process, resumes, and notes. You choose how much history to bring, and Pinpoint's team supports the move as part of your onboarding.

Will new hires still flow into Paycom if I use Pinpoint for recruiting?

Yes. When you hire someone in Pinpoint, their details pass straight into Paycom through the integration. Your team doesn't re-key data between the two systems.

Can Pinpoint replace Paycom's recruiting module?

Yes. Many organizations keep Paycom for payroll and HR and replace its built-in recruiting module with Pinpoint. You get a dedicated hiring platform, and the integration keeps Paycom updated as you hire.
