Recruiting software
The goal of recruiting is simple: find, hire, and keep the best people. Recruiting software gets you there faster by automating the whole process – turning your website into a corporate career center, collecting and searching resumes, tracking every applicant, and matching candidates to your roles. Built on an open-source platform, self-hosted, and customisable to your workflow.
What is recruiting software?
Recruiting software is an online application through which employers, consultants, placement agencies, and job seekers exchange information quickly and effectively. The objective of recruitment is to find, acquire, and retain the best people available – and recruiting software optimises the traditional, manual methods of hiring by automating the entire process.
ejobsitesoftware.com’s recruiting software is a ready-to-use platform for all your recruitment needs. Job openings are posted with the required profile, qualification, and location; job seekers apply online in a prescribed format; and the application receives those formatted resumes and stores them in a database you can easily search or retrieve – streamlining how you identify, recruit, hire, and retain talent.
The workflow
Automating the full recruitment cycle
From the first job post to a hire you retain – the software handles each stage.
Source
Post openings to your branded career site and job board, and draw applicants in with the right profile, qualifications, and location.

Shortlist
Rank and shortlist the strongest candidates, with automated emails keeping applicants informed at each step.
Interview
Coordinate interviews through the hiring-manager portal, keeping recruiters and managers aligned.
Hire & retain

Features
What the software does

Applicant tracking (ATS)
The ATS at the core maintains records of every applicant and automates the online application and resume-tracking process – collecting, reviewing, and responding to resumes without the manual load.
Searchable resume database
Formatted resumes are received and stored in a database you can search or retrieve online in seconds, so the right candidate is always findable.
Automated job posting
Gather job requirements and automatically publish them to your website, then qualify applicants and process resumes against those requirements – hands-free.
Candidate matching & shortlisting
The software matches candidates against your requirements, shortlists the best fits, and sends automated emails to selected candidates.

A dedicated hiring-manager portal keeps everyone involved in the decision aligned, alongside a wide range of other recruitment features.
