Minimize your Cost per Hire

There are a lot of factors that you have to take into consideration when it comes to hiring a new employee.  There are many costs that are tangible and some that are intangible when it comes to recruiting.   Fixed costs, such as promoting your job to some of the top pay job boards to other not-so-visible costs like TIME, effect the total cost of acquiring that next great employee.  In many recent studies, companies are now implementing applicant tracking systems because of the many benefits that ultimately drive down the cost of hire.  From free integrations with some of the largest social job sites to the streamlined approach to administrative functions, companies are seeing real ROI when it comes to implementing an ATS.

Customizable Pre-Screening Questions

Pre-screening questions are one of the most vital steps in the hiring process. They provide you with information that could make or break an applicant’s chance of being hired.  Without an ATS you lose this valuable tool. With ATS OnDemand, you can customize as many pre-screening question that you may feel will give you the best results in finding the right employee. You can also make your customized pre-screening questions knock in/out questions.  If an applicant answers a question not to your liking, they get put into the “not-qualified” recruit flow, eliminating the hassle of having to manually disposition candidates. On the other hand, if the applicant answers a question correctly, they get put in a priority list so you see them first to maximize your time looking for the right employee.

 Real-Time Reports for Real-Time Big Data

ATS OnDemand is not just for hiring employees, one of the best features in ATS OnDemand is the ability to run reports on various metrics.
