Technology has taken every complicated organizational task to the lighter side. Recruitment is one of them. Basically, recruitment comprises of locating, attracting, evaluating, interviewing and hiring talent. Recruitment used to be a complicated task until technology knocked the recruitment complications out from the scene. With internet, recruitment is no longer a task that needs to be completed through tiring multilayered manual processes. Now, recruitment has become “e-Recruitment” that is making hiring a subtle, easy and timesaving process. All thanks to the technology!
The idea was to make the recruitment processes effective, as well as less expensive. With e-recruitment practice, employers can reach a larger pool of talent and simplify the selection process. Each of the processes before interview is complex – known as pre-recruitment. As technology has already made the entire process of recruitment simpler, it has transformed the pre-recruitment process into “pre e-recruitment”.
Here, it is important to know which technology is making pre recruitment simplified. SaaS (Software as a Service) is the technology that has transformed the manual process mechanized. SaaS is basically a software installed on a server located remotely at vendor’s location.
As pre-recruitment is a multilayered process, different SaaS based software are available for different roles:
1) Career Site – To let jobseekers apply directly for open positions, on the other hand, allowing the jobseekers apply as suitable candidates for future job openings that will help recruiters get a huge candidate database.
2) Applicant Tracking System - To handle of recruitment needs, screening resumes, generating interviews requests, sending candidate communication etc. An Applicant Tracking System aka ATS helps achieving these activities.
3) Multi Job Distribution System – To easily distribute jobs adverts on multiple job sites & social media channels.
4) Recruitment Analytics – To track the recruitment activities so that employers can better strategize if any change required.
Growing businesses need to replace their obsolete system-installed HR tools with SaaS based HR applications to mobilize their pre-recruitment in a better way!
