How applications work on Harmonia
Mental health recruitment isn’t one-size-fits-all. That’s why Harmonia offers three application methods, so you can choose the level of control and support that suits your role, team and capacity. Each option is designed for different hiring needs — from simple signposting to fully managed shortlisting.
Direct Apply
Applicants directed to your website or applicant tracking system (ATS)
Best for:
Organisations with established recruitment systems or internal HR team
How it works
- Your job advert links directly to your own careers page or ATS
- Candidates apply outside of Harmonia
- You manage applications entirely within your own systems
- Advert views and apply clicks can be viewed on your dashboard
Why choose Direct Apply
- Full control over your recruitment process
- No change to existing workflows
- Ideal for larger organisations or centralised hiring teams
Good to know
- Harmonia still promotes your role to a specialist audience
- You won’t receive applications through the Harmonia dashboard
Harmonia Apply
Applications submitted to employer dashboard
Best for:
Smaller organisations or teams without an ATS.
How it works
- Candidates submit their harmonia profile, CV, cover letter and screening questions

Managed Apply
Shortlisted candidates delivered straight to you
Best for:
Busy teams, hard-to-fill roles, or employers who want support at the early stages.
How it works

Why choose Managed Apply
- Saves time at the busiest stage of recruitment
