What Is the Applicant Tracking System?
Let’s start by taking a look at what are Applicant Tracking Systems and how they work. Applicant Tracking Systems–also known as ATS–are a way for employers to quickly filter through resumes in applications they’ve received for a job opening they have posted.
While there are many different Applicant Tracking Systems on the market that work in various ways, the most common ones work by examining resumes for specific keywords, much like a search engine crawls web pages for keywords to determine their relevance when someone types in a search query. Considering how many websites, pages, and posts there are online, there needs to be a way to rapidly digest and analyze that massive amount of data, or we’d never be able to find anything on the web.
