Ever wonder why you keep attracting candidates that are not a fit for your organization? Wonder no longer! Here are some reasons why we attract the people we do and how to change that to make the most of your recruiting.
7. Pick me!
Applicants want to work for your
awesome company, so you’re getting
tons of resumes. That’s great!
8. What’s not so great is trying to keep all
those applicants organized in your email
inbox. How are you supposed to make
the best hiring decision when your
process—or lack of—is getting in the way?
9. An applicant tracking system (ATS) will
help you keep your head above all
those resumes.
10. An ATS allows you to store all your
applicant information easily in one place
and helps you adopt a process that maps
to your goal of finding great people.
11. The right ATS should be so intuitive and
simple that it feels natural, requiring
no ramp-up time.
12. I think she’d
be great! I like her!
I want to work
with her! She
looks so qualified!
You’ll be able to collaborate with
others involved in the hiring
process, allowing everyone to
weigh in and evaluate applicants.
13. Your ATS should feel like a natural extension
of your company by using your logo and color
schemes when it posts your customized job
listings on existing career pages.
14. You will find that your ATS automates many
aspects of your hiring process—such as talent
sourcing, sorting and storing applications and
resumes, as well as ranking applicants.
15. Your ATS then
continues tracking
applicants—now
employees—through
onboarding and the
early stages of the
work lifecycle.
16. A good ATS makes recruiting easier
for both recruiters and the talent you’re
bringing onboard.
17. Now your hiring process is focused on the
more strategic stuff like workplace planning,
compensation strategy and evaluating the
applicants and their skills—not the process
required to find those applicants.
