Recruitment software features overview

What recruitment software does

Recruitment software is an online application where employers, consultants, placement agencies and job seekers exchange information quickly and effectively. It aims to deliver value to both employers and job seekers, with an in-depth understanding of what each side needs from the hiring process.

In practice, that means one place to post jobs, receive and parse resumes into a searchable database, match and shortlist candidates, schedule interviews, and manage the whole pipeline – from a simple career module on a corporate site to a full job board.
