How Does An Ats System Work
1 The company posts a job listing on multiple platforms (company website, job boards, LinkedIn, etc.) through the ATS.
2 Applicants submit their resumes, which the ATS stores in a centralized database.
3 The ATS scans resumes for keywords, skills, and qualifications, ranking candidates based on relevance.
4 Recruiters review the ATS-ranked candidates and select the best matches for further screening.
5 The ATS helps coordinate interviews by integrating with calendars and sending automated invites.
6 Interviewers provide feedback within the ATS, and the system tracks each candidate's progress.
7 The selected candidate is moved to the hiring stage, and the ATS may facilitate onboarding tasks like document submission and training.
