Integrate ZOHO Recruit API?

Basically, what you’ll need to do is XML-ize your data and POST it to the API URLs they provide. I’ll start out with the basic request, and we can build on the solution if you want.

<?php
    $api_key = 'API_KEY'; // insert your API key here;
    $ticket="TICKET_ID"; // your ticket here (should be with your account);
    $data = 
        "<JobOpenings>
        <row no='1'>
        <FL val="Posting title">$job_title</FL>
        <FL val="Client">$client</FL>
        <FL val="Assigned recruiter">$recruiter_id</FL>
        <FL val="Job opening status">$job_status</FL>
        <FL val="Number of positions">$num_positions</FL>
        <FL val="Country">$job_country</FL>
        <FL val="Roles and responsibilities">$job_description</FL>
        </row>
        </JobOpenings>";

    ?>

You’d need to populate those variables with the values you’ve collected from the user. Then, you need to make a POST request. You can use the WP_Http class for that:

<?php
    if( !class_exists( 'WP_Http' ) )
        include_once( ABSPATH . WPINC. '/class-http.php' );

    $url = "https://recruit.zoho.com/ats/private/xml/Module/addRecords?apikey=$api_key&ticket=$ticket";
    $request = new WP_Http;
    $result = $request->request( $url, array( 'method' => 'POST', 'body' => $data) );

Now, obviously you’ll need to do some tweaking to add the data you’ll need for your posting, and you’ll need to handle the case that the request fails. But I hope this gives you a start (I can’t guarantee the code will work 100%) – let me know and we can build on it!
