How to Unleash the Power of an ATS to Find Rockstar Talent

Apr 25, 2019 11:20:00 AM

No matter the industry one of the top comments we hear from the field is, “We can’t find good people to work for us!” The tens of millions of job-seekers currently in the workforce don’t point to a lack of talent, so what are the problems?

We’ve found that the answers boil down to:

  1.     Finding the right candidate for the job
  2.     Using the best tools to find those talented people

Luckily, if you’re in this situation yourself, we have a solution: invest in an Applicant Tracking System (ATS).

Not all ATSs are cut from the same cloth

ClearCompany puts it simply, “An applicant tracking system, called ATS for short, is used by employers to manage job applications. Applicant tracking systems enable recruiting teams to hire faster and stay organized while doing so.” A good ATS includes dozens of tools to help you find/attract qualified applicants to any job you need filled.

Features like:

  •       Resume Sorting
  •       Candidate Stage Tracking
  •       Job Board Management
  •       Branded Career Sites
  •       Mobile Applications
  •       Recruiting Analytics
  •       Background Checks

And even more that have been proven to help you source the right candidates for a job. An ATS is there to not just help you find qualified candidates, but to make your life easier while you do it.

Some awesome ATS features you should care about

Resume Sorting: You can set specific keywords/skills and the ATS will automatically sort through resumes that have that information. Even if you receive 200 resumes you’ll only see the ones flagged with the parameters you set.

Candidate Stage Tracking: Let’s you see at a glance what stage in the hiring process an employee is. Now you can see which applicants are waiting for an email response, who you may be interviewing tomorrow, or who has already been rejected.

Job Board Management: If you’ve ever done a job posting you know how tedious it can be posting to all the different job sites, Indeed, Glassdoor, and LinkedIn just to name a few. A good ATS will let you post a job requisition to multiple job boards all with one click. Even better, after you make your posting you can get analytics seeing which job board is doing best and use that knowledge when posting in the future.
