Recruitment CRM: Stop losing winnable deals

Q: What is the difference between a Recruitment CRM and ATS?

Typically by large companies, ATS is mainly used to manage and track job applications. ATS features typically include job posting management, resume screening and parsing, interview scheduling, and candidate communication. On the other hand, a Recruitment CRM is designed to help recruiters build better relationships with candidates (both active and passive) AND clients. Recruitment CRM features typically include resume management, activity tracking, colloboration tools, and analytics and reporting. While both tools can be used for recruitment purposes, they solve different purposes. ATS is more focused on the hiring process. Recruitment CRM is more focused on building and managing candidate relationships with clients as well as candidates. Depending on your needs, you may choose to use one or both tools in your recruitment process.
