Unlocking the Potential of Applicant Databases

Applicant Tracking Systems (ATS) have become the backbone of talent acquisition, providing a centralized repository for candidate information and job postings. Astonishingly, despite the proven benefits, only 66% of large companies and 35% of small companies utilize ATS in their recruitment endeavors. While these systems streamline certain aspects of the process, they can still succumb to inefficiencies and biases, hindering the goal of assembling a diverse workforce. 

ThisWay recognizes the need for innovation within the ATS landscape. Our platform is not just about an acquisition database; it’s about reimagining how organizations engage with talent. Whether your organization already has an ATS or not, ThisWay introduces cutting edge features that elevate your recruitment process, enabling you to achieve higher levels of diversity and efficiency. Organizations that are small may not have yet invested in a job board for budgetary reasons, but ThisWay is a sure path to help organizations of any size find the right talent within seconds and to grow diversity in their organization ethically.

Problems Posed By Traditional Screening Methods and Applications

Traditional job boards, while once hailed as a revolutionary tool for connecting job seekers and employers, can inadvertently contribute to a sluggish candidate screening process. The sheer volume of applicants that flood these platforms can overwhelm talent professionals, leading to time-consuming efforts to filter through resumes and applications. Sifting through a multitude of profiles, many of which may not align with the desired qualifications, becomes an arduous task that drains valuable time and resources.

Applicant tracking systems, designed to streamline the hiring journey, also bear the brunt of certain shortcomings that can impede the screening process. Often plagued by manual data entry, inconsistent formatting, and the challenge of matching complex criteria, ATS can become a bottleneck in the talent acquisition process. Talent professionals find themselves grappling with the intricate details of keyword searches and application parsing, sacrificing efficiency for meticulousness.
