ATS location for candidates is mapped from specific fields in the corresponding ATS:

ATS	Location Stored Where?
Greenhouse	GreenhouseCandidate.addresses
Workday	WorkdayCandidate.address
SuccessFactors	TBD
SmartRecruiters	SmartRecruitersCandidate.location
Lever	LeverContact.location
AtsLite / Gem Jobs	Person.location
OATS	Person.location
iCIMS	TBD
Taleo	TBD

For SucessFactors, we are currently deriving the location value based on available fields like work experience/location.
Greenhouse has two location fields; one on the profile (which is typically their home address) and another on the application (where a user has specified their location). We chose the former, despite known data quality issues since Prospect Search surfaces candidate level data more akin to the application values. This helps us simplify the logic and avoid potential collisions.
