ATS-CANDIDATE-CRM	HCM	HCM-LIFECYCLE-WORKFLOWS	`candidate.hired`	`hired` (lifecycle)	`candidates`	event_stream	high	Hired-candidate event publishes the hiring outcome to HCM, which must create the employee record. Identifier mapping (candidate_id -> employee_id) is the canonical reconciliation gap.
ATS-INTERVIEWS	HCM	HCM-LIFECYCLE-WORKFLOWS	`candidate_assessment.failed`	(lifecycle)	`candidate_assessments`	event_stream	low	Failed-assessment outcomes close the candidate’s loop in ATS and propagate to HCM only if the candidate is an internal-mobility applicant whose profile should reflect the development gap.
ATS-INTERVIEWS	HCM	HCM-LIFECYCLE-WORKFLOWS	`candidate_assessment.passed`	(lifecycle)	`candidate_assessments`	event_stream	medium	Passing an assessment advances the candidate; on eventual hire, HCM uses the assessment result as the first data point for the new-hire skill profile.

ATS-CANDIDATE-CRM	BEN-ADMIN	BEN-ENROLLMENT	`candidate.hired`	`hired` (lifecycle)	`candidates`	event_stream	low	Hired candidate triggers eligibility window in BEN-ADMIN.

ATS-CANDIDATE-CRM	ONBOARDING	ONB-JOURNEY-MGMT	`candidate.hired`	`hired` (lifecycle)	`candidates`	event_stream	medium	Hired candidate drives onboarding-plan kickoff with role/location/manager context from ATS payload.

ATS-CANDIDATE-CRM	HCM	HCM-CORE-WORKER	`employee.applied_internally`	`active` → `active` (signal)	`candidates`	api_call	medium	When an employee applies internally, HCM hands the worker context to the applicant tracker, which materializes an internal candidate record from the worker profile.
