Applicant Tracking System
Going through the evolutionary process of the whole applicant tracking system over the years is quite interesting. In the beginning, it used to be quite a cumbersome & messed up process. One mistake could lead to several other & in effect starting a chain reaction which in turn could prove to be very damaging for the company involved. However, with the evolution of technology, I must admit the software for recruitment has been the one to benefit the most out of it all. The new softwares are fully automatic & the chances of an error creeping into the applicant tracking system are almost next to none. It has just become close to perfect. Nonetheless, some errors do occur but in the defence of those softwares, most of those errors which occur are caused on account of poor handling by the staff involved. So, it can be safely said that it is fool-hardy to blame software for any manual error. Leaving that aside, the productivity of those organizations employing the latest available applicant tracking system has increased many a miles. It would have been unthinkable a couple of decades ago when the performance of the applicant tracking system was taken for granted. Now they lead the pack when it comes to maximising benefits for a company.
