Research shows that Applicant Tracking Systems (ATS) become nearly obsolete after 7 years of use, causing a large amount of companies to look for new platforms to give them an edge with hiring.

In the war for talent, is your organization utilizing the right methods to find the best people?

With the online marketplace of HR software growing, the options can be overwhelming.

Depending on the function and size of your organization, one tool may be better suited for your business than another.

Here are several mostly new, ATS systems to maximize your Recruiting efforts:

Rolepoint

This HR platform has attempted to revolutionize the way Recruiting is done.

This tool helps employers optimize their Recruiting efforts by focusing on two of the most common sources of hires: Referrals and internal mobility.

Utilized by massive companies like KPMG, the platform can help businesses of any size find the person suited best for any role.

Bamboo HR

This web-based tool runs in modules, so users can add on any integrations they might need.

The platform can help small to mid-size companies cut down on administrative work and is used by notable companies like SoundCloud, Foursquare, and ZipRecruiter.

Extensive Bamboo HR software updates in the past year mean that HR professionals can now create and track custom benefit packages, including 12 different benefit types for specific employee groups.

Jazz

Formerly known as the Resumator, Jazz works well for small to mid-sized businesses and is very user friendly.

The platform can be branded to suit your company and gives employers the ability to see applicants from all job boards in one place.

Recently updated analytics functions also lets users analyze where their candidates are coming from (i.e. Facebook Ads, Craigslist, LinkedIn)

Special tip: the ‘what makes you unique’ (WMYU) feature on Jazz allows those who are initially reviewing applicants to either eliminate a candidate or take a second look.

Workable

Cloud-based and trusted by over 5000 companies to streamline their Recruiting, Workable helps users through every step of hiring.

The platform aims to help smaller businesses who are growing quickly and want a collaborative hiring process.

Indeed, among their customers you’ll notice a lot of fast-growing startups like Conversocial or Vend.

The platform prides itself on its collaboration features that helps engage an entire team in the Recruiting process.
