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](https://blog.clearcompany.com/applicant-tracking-systems-guide) 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](https://www.indeed.com/),[ Glassdoor](https://www.glassdoor.com/index.htm), and[ LinkedIn](https://www.betterteam.com/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. ## **Never miss out on rockstar talent again!** Out of all the ATS systems out there, [Proliant](https://www.proliant.com/applicant-tracking-recruitment) provides you with[ all the ATS tools](https://www.proliant.com/applicant-tracking-recruitment) you’ll ever need.
