Over the next few weeks we will start to build a live list of ATS providers mainly sticking to low cost and free options for independent and small market recruiters. We are calling this a live list because as we build the list we will be taking your input and suggestions.
Over the last three months, I have been seeing demo after demo of the best ATS Systems in the world. I mean they got everything we need-OFCCP Compliance, Excellent Reporting Tools, and my favorite…it is configurable. I will say we have it down to our top
I am always trying out new apps to make my recruiting desk more efficient. The recent purchase of Rapportive by Linkedin made me finally try the app that I have been reading about and I am sure glad I did. I thought it sounded like Xobni and it is but for Gmail.
Rapportive is a free app (recently acquired by LinkedIn) that shows you everything about your contacts right inside your inbox. Rapportive helps you build rapport quickly (hence the name) and is “relationship management built into your email.” It functions as a Gmail add on
WiseStamp is a handy dandy app that allows you to customize your email signature.
I use the free version in conjunction with Gmail and it works swimmingly well for both branding and presenting a professional signature from a web-based email account.

Another SHRM 2012 interview by TakeTheInterview.com’s VP Ty Abernathy (no he is not the guy in the suit!) found a cool tool to reward employees…we like it…do you?
As a recruiter, utilizing a job board has one obvious advantage – it is the quickest way to publicize your jobs to a mass target audience and receive an inbox full of resumes. But posting on a job board is the “pay and pray” approach to sourcing talent – you receive a high volume of low qualified candidates. And paying for the service regardless of the results can be quite frustrating when you don’t find who you want.
Recruiting Video is widely debated. We take a look at why you should not use it to recruit. Every good recruiter has a packed tool kit full with useful tools for sourcing, screening, and evaluating candidates – tools likeLinkedin, job boards, assessment tests, and an easy-to-use ATS.
