Applicant tracking systems (ATS) source, screen, and build pipelines to manage candidates for open positions. Recruiters, HR teams, and hiring managers use these tools to create and distribute job postings, parse resumes, schedule interviews, and manage documents like cover letters and references. In addition, an ATS also automates time-consuming manual tasks like scheduling interviews, communicating next steps, and sending alerts to candidates. An ATS also tracks and reports metrics like time-to-hire and cost-to-hire, enabling companies to optimize the return-on-investment (ROI) of recruiting software investments.

To best secure top of funnel hiring, this recruiting software ties into greater recruiting features such as job boards, employee referral software, recruitment marketing platforms, video interviewing software, interview scheduling software, onboarding software, and recruitment platforms. Some ATS may offer candidate relationship management software capabilities to help recruiters proactively discover and nurture potential candidates via email marketing, scheduling, and periodic communications.

Recruitment professionals across industries use applicant tracking tools to extract a candidate’s educational background, skills, and work histories from a resume, enabling recruiters to find the most qualified candidates for their organization. These tools allow hiring teams to acquire and manage candidates from multiple sources, including social media, referrals, and job board websites. An ATS also ensures collaborative hiring, coordinates multiple calendars while scheduling interviews, and integrates with existing recruiting software to boost hiring process efficiency.
