These days, HR departments and Recruiting professionals are finding it increasingly hard to pick the best candidate for a job opening among a growing pool of eager and qualified applicants. But selecting the best candidate is not the only problem - managing the increased pool of resumes, e-mail/phone communications and interviews has also become more difficult.

That's why today we are launching our newest product: Zoho Recruit. Zoho Recruit is an applicant tracking system (ATS) that helps staffing agencies and recruiting departments track their job openings, resumes, candidates and contacts quickly and efficiently. Zoho Recruit allows recruiting professionals to spend less time on the process and paperwork and more time doing what they do best: getting the right candidate.

Zoho Recruit allows Recruiting agencies, independent staffing professionals and HR departments to:
  • Source and Reach Candidates. Gather resumes from multiple sources and do the initial filtering and resume screening more quickly - without weeding out the qualified candidates.
  • Manage Candidates and Resumes.  Manage resumes and track the candidates throughout the interviewing process. Zoho Recruit of course features a resume database. But beyond that, you can also schedule interviews, send automatic e-mail notifications and log candidate activities and notes. And once you've made a decision on a candidate you can "lock" him to avoid confusion with other positions or clients.
  • Create and Publish Job Openings. Collect resumes easily by creating and publishing the job openings in your website - and allow candidates to apply directly from there.
  • Parse Resumes. Populate resume information from different sources like social sites, mail attachments and more through and integration with ResumeGrabber. Oh - and Zoho Recruit customers get a very nice discount on ResumeGrabber.
  • Stay on top of what's going on. The activities stream allows recruiters and sourcers to stay on top of the recent and future activities. For example: what interviews are taking place today, who got hired recently, what new job openings do we have to fill?
  • Customize. No two recruiting processes are alike. Zoho Recruit can be fully customized to your needs. Create custom fields with our easy drag-and-drop UI (powered by Zoho Creator).
Recruiting agencies and headhunters will find Zoho Recruit particularly helpful. Zoho Recruit features dedicated functionality that helps them communicate and track their interactions with clients and contacts. They can also send quick notes to their customers directly from within Zoho Recruit.

In addition, recruiting agencies and headhunters will find Zoho Recruit a great tool for keeping track of the different clients and contacts they recruit for.

Like other Zoho products, Zoho Recruit has a generous free edition. It also has a Standard edition (at only $12 user/month). The main difference is that the Standar edition allows recruiters to add more job openings, do mass mailings, customization and more.

Take a look at Zoho Recruit. We hope you'll like it.
