E-Forms

Finalise Your Offer/Have it Approved: HR or Managers can finalise their offer to candidates by editing and fine tuning the original request-to-recruit (requisition) that the business has already approved in order to create the final offer details. They can then either have the changes approved again or they can go straight to onboarding, generate an offer/contract and send it to the candidate for signing.

Final Offer Approval

The offer approval module allows HR and/ or managers to capture final details of the offer they wish to present to the selected candidate/s. Once those details are captured, the user also has the option to have the offer approved by one or more executives prior to it being released to the candidate.

The final and approved offer details will then freely flow into the onboarding process module and automatically merge into the job offer, employment contract, documents and forms.

Video Interviews

Most resumes, often created from internet templates, provide only a one-dimensional view of candidates. Even a well-crafted resume lacks depth. A recorded video interview adds the missing dimensions, showcasing a candidate's soft skills, communication abilities, personality, and emotional intelligence. This approach saves time by focusing on candidates who closely match your requirements, reserving live interviews for the best fits. Unlike hour-long live interviews, a pre-recorded video takes just 2 minutes to assess a candidate’s potential.

Seamless Integration With Your Payroll / HRMS Systems

Martian Logic Integration Connectors transfer data to Payroll, HRMS, and HRIS systems. Candidate onboarding information is automatically sent to your Payroll/HRMS system. The platform includes standard connectors, with custom-built options available as needed.

How does an applicant tracking system (ATS) work?

Applicant Tracking Systems (ATS) have become indispensable tools for modern recruitment, helping organizations efficiently manage their hiring processes and streamline tedious manual tasks. Here's how they make it all possible:

Request-To-Hire Approval Workflow:
With a built-in request-to-hire approval workflow, users can swiftly submit requests-to-recruit and secure the necessary approvals. Once approved, HR teams can initiate the recruitment process with complete transparency, fostering clear communication among all involved parties.

Posting/Sourcing:

Collaboration, Candidate Ranking, and Sharing With Managers:
An ATS facilitates seamless collaboration among executives, managers, and HR throughout the entire recruitment funnel.

Future of applicant tracking systems

In the rapidly evolving job market, Applicant Tracking Systems (ATS) are continuously adapting to support recruitment in remarkable ways. Marked by innovation, efficiency, and a stronger focus on candidate and user experience, ATS platforms of today aim to stay up-to-date so your organisation can stay ahead in the race for top talent.

AI-Driven Candidate Rating & Selection:
With advancements in AI technology, ATS platforms screen candidates so you can assess the 10% of star applicants without having to go through the irrelevant 90% of applications. It can also help you assess more complex criteria like cultural fit and soft skills based on video responses. This will eliminate potential biases in recruitment and free up time for your HR team to focus on more strategic tasks.

Enhanced Candidate Experience:
The candidate experience is becoming a top priority of the recruitment process, starting from attraction and application, right through to onboarding. By tailoring and personalising each stage of the recruitment funnel, your organisation will not only attract top talent but also reduce candidate drop-off rates and elevate your brand's reputation. This ensures that the hiring process is engaging, efficient, and designed to leave a positive impression on candidates, setting your organisation apart as an employer of choice.

Mobile-Enabled Access:
ATS platforms will be designed with mobile-accessibility in mind so that candidates can easily apply to positions, track their applications, and communicate with recruiters on their phones, making the entire process more convenient and efficient.

Integration:
As the central hub for all hiring-related activities, an ATS will integrate seamlessly with other HR systems, job boards, and even social media. This will allow you to experience the best of both worlds when it comes to tracking applicants and managing hiring-related processes.

What types of companies use an applicant tracking system (ATS)?

Applicant tracking systems are used by all types of organizations, big and small, across different industries and countries. Although they were initially most popular among major corporations and high-volume recruiters, ATS platforms are now available to smaller businesses and start-ups thanks to affordable and scalable solutions. This makes streamlined hiring processes a possibility for everyone.

ATS solutions steamline the requisition process for hiring and, once approved, streamline the entire cycle of attracting, recruiting, and onboarding candidates. This not only saves time and money, but also enhances compliance and ensures a superior experience for candidates, even if the company hires just one person in a year. However, the more a company hires, the greater the return on investment (ROI) will be.

Based on our experience, nearly half of all resumes are in PDF format, and in more creative industries, this percentage skyrockets to almost 99%.

The crucial ability of an ATS to read PDF files lies in its capacity to search for skills and keywords within the candidate database. And a modern ATS, can seamlessly parse resumes of any format, ensuring that all resume information is indexed and ready for efficient searching by talent sourcing users.

An applicant tracking system brings accountability, efficiency, compliance, and positive experiences to the hiring process, handling large volumes of applications and ensuring no candidate slips through the cracks.
