Enrich Records from Notes

You need Bullhorn Amplify Edition to use this feature.

In this article, you’ll learn how to use Amplify Enrich to automatically update candidate, contact, and job records based on the text of your notes.

This feature saves time by reducing manual updates and helps maintain data integrity by ensuring fields stay current whenever new information is added through a note. It’s especially useful for intake notes or call summaries where you record details such as desired salary, employment type, or start date.

How it Works

When you add or edit a note on a candidate, contact, or job record, Amplify analyzes the text and suggests updates to relevant fields. You can:

  • Review the suggested updates.

  • Edit any values as needed.

  • Choose which updates to apply.

Once you save the note, Amplify automatically updates those fields on the related record using the values you selected.

Available fields

Admin users can choose up to 20 fields for Amplify to analyze when suggesting updates for each entity, including custom fields. Amplify will use only the fields you configure, ensuring suggestions are aligned with the data your organization captures. See Configuring Field Selection below for setup steps.

Amplify’s suggestions are based on the context of your note. You can choose which updates to apply and overwrite suggested values with your own text, so you always have full control.

Enabling Note Enrichment

Note Enrichment is turned off by default. An Admin user can enable it in Amplify Admin.

To enable the feature:

  1. Go to Menu > Admin > Amplify Admin.

  2. Open the Entity Settings tab.

  3. Expand the entity you want to enable Note Enrichment for (Candidate, Job, or Contact).

  4. Under Enrich Fields, toggle Note Enrichment to the ON position.

This setting applies to all users in your Bullhorn corporation and cannot be limited to specific users or departments.

Configuring Field Selection

Admin users can configure which fields Amplify should enrich from notes. You can select up to 20 fields for each entity, including custom fields, and this configuration applies to all users in your corporation.

To configure available fields:

  1. Go to Menu > Admin > Amplify Admin

  2. Click the Entity Settings tab.

  3. Expand the section for the entity you want to configure.

  4. Under Enrich Fields, review the current list. You can add, remove, or edit fields as needed.

    • If you don't see a list of fields, make sure Note Enrichment is toggled to the ON position.

  5. After making any changes, click Save.

Add Field

To add a new field:

  1. Click Add Field at the bottom of the table.

  2. Search for and select the desired field from the dropdown. The field will appear at the bottom of the list.

  3. Then complete the following:

    • Description: Provide guidance on what type of information belongs in this field and what phrases Amplify should look for in notes. Be as specific as possible, and include formatting instructions if needed. You may also include directives such as “If unsure, do not guess.”

    • Examples: Enter examples of correctly formatted values to help Amplify recognize appropriate data and apply consistent formatting.

Remove Field

To remove a field, click the trash can () icon. A confirmation dialog will appear before the field is removed from the list.

Edit Field

To adjust a configured field, click into the Description or Examples column and update the text as needed.

Reset Selection

Click Reset to Defaults to restore the original recommended field list.
