If you employ others—and plan to make more hires as you grow and scale your business—consider an applicant tracking system (ATS) to simplify the hiring process for your small business.

Most ATSs can help you source talent by automating job site postings and helping you develop recruitment campaigns. Many use artificial intelligence (AI) to match prospective employees with your must-have (and preferred) requirements and provide you with a shortlist of candidates most likely to succeed in a given role.

Some also allow businesses to set up branded career pages, postings in multiple languages, and in-app scheduling options for phone and in-person interviews. Many others provide interview resources for hiring managers, including hiring procedures, assessments, and video interview integrations.

An applicant tracking system isn’t necessary for every business, but it can be a helpful resource for small business owners and managers who constantly engage in recruiting, hiring, and onboarding new employees.
