Applicant tracking system

An applicant tracking system (ATS) is a web-based application that enables the electronic handling of corporate recruitment needs. Most include a job board, allowing companies to post jobs onto a website, as a way to attract candidates. This is typically called a job board. The job board is typically accompanied by a mechanism for capturing candidates by allowing them to apply online. Effective solutions store this candidate data inside a database to allow effective searching, filtering, and routing of applicants.

The largest organizational benefit of an applicant tracking system is improved productivity from your recruiting team. Electronic handling of requisition and candidate data allows significant opportunities to reduce inefficiencies through automated processes. Further, the improved organization of candidate information allows quicker recruitment decision-making. All of this leads to reduced cost and time per hire.
