Recruitment Software: The Transformative Solution for Staffing Agencies

  By Lynn Connor  |    Thursday May 18, 2023



Managing the recruitment process can be a daunting task, especially for staffing agencies and small businesses. However, it is now much simpler to find the ideal candidate for a job thanks to the development of recruitment software.

Recruitment software streamlines the hiring process, eliminates paperwork, and cuts down on the amount of time it takes to screen and hire candidates, making it a cost-effective solution for staffing agencies of all sizes. 

With one of the best recruiting software platforms in the staffing industry, COATS Staffing Software clients have access to a user-friendly platform that handles job posting, candidate screening, onboarding and payroll for thousands of employees, bills each customer, and takes care of every necessary accounting task along the way.

In every software product, there will be some tools and applications that won’t be used. With your employee and client data already input on the front end when using COATS, all clients benefit from using the back office included in the platform as well. Why not use the back office to complete payroll and billing? Avoid using a third party to process your payroll; it’s an additional and costly step. 

Recruitment software has grown to be an essential tool for staffing companies to stay competitive in the market. 

The entire hiring process, including candidate tracking and client management, can be found on one platform because COATS Staffing Software was created specifically for staffing agencies. By streamlining the hiring process, this kind of software helps recruiters fill job orders more quickly and increase their placement rate.

 

For staffing companies, personnel and staffing management software is indispensable. 

Using this kind of software, staffing firms can effectively manage their internal HR procedures. Companies can manage employee information, monitor employee time and attendance, and enable job candidates to submit their own applications by using staffing management software.

 

Online job application software has literally changed the way staffing firms handle applicants, and when done properly, it’s changed things for the better. 

Job applications completed online provide a tremendous amount of flexibility for applicants and staffing firms. Moreover, staffing software platforms provide an all-in-one solution for recruiters, enabling them to reach a wider pool of candidates, manage their candidate pipeline, and even manage social media accounts.

 

Specific examples help explain how recruiters benefit from utilizing COATS. 

With more than one recruiter working with your candidate pool on a regular basis, it can be difficult to know the status of each employee. Are they currently working, have they been called about a job, or have they accepted a work assignment? With our software, employee status is easy to find. Our status keys and colors keep all staffers informed of employees and applicants that have accepted (ACC) a job, are confirmed (CON) and working, are considering and pending (PEN), are in the interview stages (INT) with a client, have finished an assignment (FIN), and more. 

 

Staffing support solutions are an essential aspect of recruitment software. 

COATS provides access to a variety of resources that can help agencies and businesses stay competitive and remain successful in a constantly evolving industry. By partnering with top firms in the staffing industry, COATS offers solutions for almost anything a staffing firm needs to run a business. Some examples include time and attendance tracking, unemployment management, worker’s compensation, texting capabilities, and healthcare.

Recruitment software, such as COATS Staffing Software, provides a transformative solution to agencies for streamlining recruitment processes, handling personnel management, and offering staffing support solutions. By implementing recruitment software solutions, companies can work smarter, not harder, and remain competitive in the industry.
