APPLICANT TRACKING SYSTEMS(ATS)
Hiring Software That Changed The Game Surrounding Employment!
WHAT IT IS…
• A software application that enables the electronic handling of a company's recruitment needs
• Software that allows an organization to collect and store candidate and job related data through all stages of the hiring process
• Software that can be used to post job openings on a corporate website or job board, screen resumes, and generate interview requests
WHAT IT IS NOT…
• A tool to replace actual recruiters – thus eliminating personal contacts
• Systems that are only used by large companies with vast hiring needs
• Found as difficult to use by HR and Recruiting Managers
• Require significant IT support and extensive computer maintenance
• Just an electronic database of resumes and applications
