What is an integrated career page?
When you advertise your job
openings on various mediums, the candidates normally view your advertisement
there and eventually cross check it with your career page. Suppose these openings don’t show on your
career page at the same time or if you do not have a career page, then a
candidate does the next best thing, he/she applies to the generic e-mail ids
provided on your website e.g info@company.com or hr@company.com
Such generic e-mail ids attract a
lot of junk mail and trash mail and the chances of you deleting a quality
resume by mistake is huge. Hence, it
becomes imperative for you to have an updated career page that is not only live
and real time at all times but also directs all the resumes to the inbox of
your recruiter. So an integrated career
page becomes essential because, not only is it cost effective, it is also
maintenance free.
You can, here, integrate the
career page with our job site. This is a
small technical process which can be easily sorted. An IT person from your
company and our specialist will spend a couple of hours trying to understand
how your career page or web site works and integrates or merges (in a broad
term) your career page with our job board.
Having an Integrated Career Page
is the first step towards having your own simple and efficient Applicant
Tracking System (ATS). You could choose
have the larger complicated ones, or a more simple one which starts with
integrating your career page.
What is an Applicant Tracking
System
An Applicant Tracking System,
also called a candidate management system, is a software application designed
to help an enterprise recruit employees more efficiently. An ATS includes a
corporate career site, allowing companies to post jobs onto their own website,
as a way to attract candidates. Candidates may apply for specific jobs or
generally to the company. Effective solutions store this candidate data inside
a database to allow effective searching, filtering, and routing of
applications.
