Overview

What the OMG Sales Assessments Zapier integration does for a hiring team

The OMG Sales Assessments Zapier integration links Objective Management Group's candidate screening to the rest of your hiring tools. Zapier runs small automations called Zaps: one event in an app starts them, then they do work elsewhere. Here, OMG can start a Zap when it processes a candidate, and a Zap can ask OMG for a questionnaire link.

Three results show up in practice. A message in the hiring channel for each recommended candidate: Candidate Assessment Processed starts the Zap, and its Include settings decide which verdicts get through. A spreadsheet row per assessed candidate, so recruiters read every result in one shared sheet instead of inside the OMG account. A ready-to-send invitation: Create Candidate Link takes the Access Code of a registration and returns the URL one candidate should open, and the next step pastes it into an email.

What Zapier does not do for this app matters just as much. There is no search step, so a Zap cannot look up an existing candidate or assessment in OMG. It cannot change a verdict, delete a candidate or move one between registrations either: the editor offers one trigger and one action, nothing more. Before picking a tool for a wider hiring workflow, see Make vs Zapier and n8n vs Zapier.

Vocabulary

The Zapier words you will meet

Eight terms, each in plain words. The rest of the page uses them without explaining them again.

Zap
The automation you build on Zapier: one trigger, then one or more actions that run each time the trigger event happens.
Trigger
The event in an app that starts the Zap. Once the Zap is switched on, Zapier waits for that event and nothing else.
Action
What the Zap does after it starts: the step that writes, sends or moves something on your behalf in an app.
Task
The unit Zapier bills. One task equals one action your Zap completes successfully, and your plan counts those.
Polling vs instant
A polling trigger is checked by Zapier on a timer. An instant trigger is reported by the app itself, so nothing waits.
Filter
A step that lets the Zap continue only when the incoming data meets your condition, and stops it otherwise.
Search step
A step that looks up something already stored in an app, so later steps can reuse what it found. OMG has none.
Connection
Your account of an app, linked to Zapier once, then reused by every step of every Zap that uses that app.
Cost

What it really costs

Zapier bills in tasks, one per action that completes. Candidate Assessment Processed costs nothing on its own, and an action that fails is not counted.

  • The trigger0 tasks
  • Each successful action1 task
  • Free plan100 tasks a month, 2-step Zaps
  • Needs a paid planFilter, search or second action

The free plan gives 100 tasks a month and unlimited Zaps, and OMG Sales Assessments is not reserved for paid plans. The catch: a free Zap stops at two steps, one trigger and one action. Add a filter, a search or a second action and it becomes a multi-step Zap, which needs a paid plan. Also keep in mind that a few apps and a few actions take more than one task when they complete. The interval grid below concerns polling triggers only; this one is instant.

Connect

Connect your OMG account in three steps

  1. 01

    Open the Apps page

    In your Zapier account, go to Apps and click + Add connection. You need an OMG Sales Assessments account before you start, since Zapier only links accounts that already exist.

  2. 02

    Pick OMG Sales Assessments

    In the dialog, type the app name, select OMG Sales Assessments in the results, then click Add connection. Zapier opens a separate tab where the OMG sign-in happens.

  3. 03

    Sign in and grant access

    Sign in to OMG in that tab and grant Zapier access to the account. If a colleague owns the registrations you want to automate, ask for read or write access on them first, or the Zap will not reach them.

First Zap

Your first Zap: log and announce recommended candidates

GoalEvery recommended candidate lands in a shared sheet and in the hiring channel.

  1. 01

    Pick the trigger

    Start a new Zap, choose OMG Sales Assessments as the app that starts it, then Candidate Assessment Processed as the event, and select your OMG connection.

  2. 02

    Choose the verdicts

    Switch on Include Recommended and Include Worthy of Consideration, and leave Include Non-Recommended off, so only candidates worth a call travel further.

  3. 03

    Test the trigger

    Run the test: Zapier brings back the three most recent processed candidates of the connected account. Pick one, so the next steps are mapped on real values.

  4. 04

    Add the two actions

    Add the Google Sheets step, then the Slack step, and map the candidate details from the trigger into each. Three steps make a multi-step Zap, so this one needs a paid plan.

  5. 05

    Test, then publish

    Test each action once and read what came back, then click Publish to switch the Zap on. From then on, each processed assessment that passes your settings starts it.

Triggers

The OMG Sales Assessments trigger

1 event starts a Zap when something happens in OMG Sales Assessments, and one of them is instant: the app calls Zapier straight away, whatever your plan.

1

Candidate Assessment Processed

Instant trigger

In Zapier“Triggers when a candidate is processed.”

Each time OMG finishes processing a candidate's assessment, this trigger hands the outcome to your Zap, so the hiring team hears about it without logging in to OMG. It is the only door into this integration from the OMG side, which makes it the starting card of almost every Zap you will build here.

How it fires
the app tells Zapier the moment it happens, so the Zap starts right away, whatever your plan.
When to use it
a sales manager who only books interviews with strong profiles wants each new recommendation in Slack the same day.
Watch out
three Include settings (Recommended, Worthy of Consideration, Non-Recommended) decide which verdicts start the Zap, and a verdict left off never arrives.
Actions

The OMG Sales Assessments action

OMG Sales Assessments gives you 1 action. For each one: what it does for you, when to reach for it, and what to watch out for.

When it breaks

When it breaks

No help article, no documented rate limit: Zapier lists nothing specific to OMG Sales Assessments. What goes wrong here is what goes wrong with any Zap, and it pays to know it before the first candidate comes through.

Three cases cover what a hiring team is likely to meet. For a run that fails for another reason, see Zapier troubleshooting.

  • Older assessments never show up

    A Zap only reacts to candidates processed after you publish it. Assessments finished before that stay in OMG, and moving that backlog is a separate job.
  • A Zap that keeps setting itself off

    A Zap that writes into the very place its own trigger watches starts itself again and again, and eats through the task count fast. Keep the output elsewhere.
  • A burst after a bulk import

    When a trigger suddenly returns a huge batch, after a bulk import or a migration, Zapier's flood protection can hold those items back instead of running them all.

FAQ

OMG Sales Assessments and Zapier: common questions

01Is the OMG Sales Assessments Zapier integration free?
Yes, it works on the free Zapier plan, because Zapier does not reserve OMG Sales Assessments for paid plans. The free plan gives 100 tasks a month and as many Zaps as you want. The limit to watch is size: a free Zap has two steps, one trigger and one action. Candidate Assessment Processed followed by one step in another app fits. Add a filter, a search or a second action and the Zap turns multi-step, which needs a paid plan. You also need your own OMG account to connect.
02How many Zapier tasks does it use?
Only actions count. The Candidate Assessment Processed trigger costs no task, however many candidates OMG processes. Each action that completes costs one task, so a one-action Zap uses one task per candidate that passes your Include settings, and a three-action Zap uses three. Create Candidate Link counts like any other action: one task each time it returns a link. An action that fails is not counted against your plan. On the free plan, the budget is 100 tasks a month.
03Does the OMG trigger work in real time?
Yes. Candidate Assessment Processed is an instant trigger: OMG reports each processed candidate to Zapier itself, and the Zap starts right away. The plan grid, 15 minutes on Free, 2 on Professional and 1 on Team or Enterprise, applies only to polling triggers, which Zapier checks on a timer, so it does not slow this one down on any plan. A Zap built on it shows a lightning bolt in the editor. The trigger type comes from OMG and cannot be switched from the editor.
04What does it take to connect an OMG account to Zapier?
An OMG Sales Assessments account and a Zapier account. In Zapier, open Apps, click + Add connection, search for the app, click Add connection, sign in to OMG in the tab that opens and grant Zapier access. If the registrations you want to automate belong to a colleague, the connected account needs read or write access on them. For Create Candidate Link, keep the Access Code of the registration ready: the field is required and the step cannot run without it.
05Why do some candidates never reach the Zap?
Usually because of the trigger settings. Candidate Assessment Processed carries three switches, Include Recommended, Include Worthy of Consideration and Include Non-Recommended, and only the verdicts switched on start the Zap. Worthy of Consideration groups the profiles that narrowly missed a Recommended verdict, so leaving it off hides your near misses. The second cause is timing: a Zap only reacts to candidates processed after it was published, so anything assessed earlier never appears. Check both before you reconnect the account.
06What if the OMG operation you need does not exist?
Then this integration cannot do it, and it is better to know before building. Zapier offers one trigger and one action for OMG Sales Assessments, with no search step, so a Zap cannot look up, edit or delete candidates in OMG. Two paths remain. Build around what exists: the trigger to react to verdicts, Create Candidate Link to send invitations, and other apps for everything after that. Or check whether another automation tool reaches the missing operation before committing to Zapier.
07Zapier, Make or n8n for OMG Sales Assessments?
There is no single winner; it comes down to criteria. On the Zapier side, three checks settle it. Are the operations you need among one trigger and one action? Does your monthly volume of processed candidates fit the task budget of your plan? Can your Zap stay at two steps if you want the free plan? If your workflow needs a lookup, a change to an existing candidate or several actions without paying, test the same scenario in the other tools before deciding.
