Talent Acquisition

A day in the life of a recruiter...made easier, with Eploy

Dashboards

Without Eploy

''We’ve had a surge in requisitions to advertise and manage. I’m not as organised as I would like to be and it’s not always clear what needs my attention and where I should focus my efforts.
The TA team wants to maximise the value that we bring to the business and to report back to the SLT with how we are performing against the wider business strategy - without spending hours pulling reports together in Excel.''

With Eploy

Using Eploy dashboards is a practical way to monitor every aspect of your recruitment activity, define your measures of success, prioritise tasks and activities to ensure you are meeting KPIs.It’s all real-time reporting that can be shared using permissions access or exported to Excel.

Vacancy Creation

Without Eploy

''I’d like to collaborate more with our hiring managers to put new requisitions together but we need to ensure that we’ve got approval to hire. The current process is frustrating for everyone. I’m having to chase people all the time and the hiring managers are chasing me! It's a big bottleneck in our process.''

With Eploy

Eliminate these bottlenecks and improve your job requisition management.. Eploy can store your job templates and empower your hiring managers to kick-start the requisition process and trigger the appropriate approval process. The Recruitment Team can monitor these requests (so there are no last minute surprises) and when you get the green light, you’ve got your advertising strategy ready to go.

Identifying Skills

Without Eploy

''We spend too much time manually  reviewing candidate CVs to identify if they have the skills needed for the position. Many of our applicants are a bad fit, but I worry we could be missing something important because we don’t always have time to do this accurately.''

With Eploy

Let’s speed things up for you! Tag relevant skills against your vacancy and let Eploy’s ATS CV parsing and skills matching do the work for you, segmenting and scoring your applicants against the requirements.

Quickly check your talent pool too for passive candidates!

Marketing Strategy

Without Eploy

''We can’t rely on applicants visiting our careers site alone. Some of our roles are hard to fill and we struggle to attract the right candidates. I’m never sure how effective our adverts are and with limited budget, I have to be selective about where to advertise for maximum impact. I just don’t have the data to decide what is best.''

With Eploy

Eploy centralises the management of your job adverts and marketing spend, providing a streamlined solution in one place. When a candidate engages with an advert, Eploy automatically tracks the source, enabling you to monitor where your candidates originate from. More importantly, over time, you can assess the quality of candidates and determine if the advert has led to successful placements. Should you advertise in the same place again? Well now you can make a fact-based decision!

Automation

Without Eploy

''Keeping candidates informed and engaged throughout the process can be difficult, especially for longer recruitment cycles. I’ve got so much going on, I’m not sure that I’m getting back to all of our candidates - and I know we are losing some great candidates because of this.''

With Eploy

Automated emails and updates will keep candidates engaged, from application acknowledgement to interview scheduling. Recruiters can easily manage multiple job openings by categorising candidates, tracking stages, and setting reminders for follow-ups. Recruitment made easy!

6

Customisable Workflows

Without Eploy

''We recruit for a variety of different roles across different territories and invariably we often need to follow different processes. Our existing recruitment tech only allows for one approach, so we have to manage certain elements outside of the system. It becomes a real juggling act to keep the process moving and accurately tracking everything.''

With Eploy

Eploy offers unparalleled levels of customisation, allowing you to create multiple recruitment workflows tailored precisely to your specific needs. With Eploy, a "one size fits all" approach is no longer necessary. Your candidates and hiring managers will appreciate a recruitment process that’s streamlined, personalised, and efficiently managed from start to finish - including onboarding as standard!

7

Interview Scheduling

Without Eploy

''Scheduling interviews can feel like herding cats. Constant back and forth checking people's diaries to see when they are available for interviews is a headache and when there’s a whole panel involved it becomes even more time-consuming!''

With Eploy

Eploy integrates with your corporate calendar so that all your panel members' availability can be viewed and booked in one place.

You can even let your hiring managers schedule their own sessions and automatically forward these to your candidates to confirm.

8

Compliance Checks

Without Eploy

''We have a variety of different roles and different pre-employment checks to complete. With so many live roles, it's hard to stay on top of what's needed for each position and to track candidates through the process. It’s taking longer than I would like to check everything, and spot problems, which has a negative impact on our time to hire.''

With Eploy

You can build onboarding journeys to suit the type of position that you are recruiting for. By defining the process it's easy to use the Eploy onboarding module to walk your candidates through the pre-employment process and track progress through your dashboards.

Candidates references not returned? DBS check not started? Occupational health questionnaire incomplete? Spot the issues and bottlenecks right away and get started on a resolution.

Your compliance checklists ensure you’ve met your obligations as an employer and can be clearly evidenced for audit purposes.

Eploy FAQs

Frequently asked questions on how Talent Acquisition teams can leverage an ATS.

Talent acquisition is a strategic approach to identifying, attracting, and hiring top talent to meet an organisation’s long-term workforce needs. Unlike traditional recruitment, talent acquisition focuses on building pipelines, employer branding, and aligning hiring with business goals.

An Applicant Tracking System (ATS) is a powerful recruitment tool designed for in-house recruitment and talent acquisition teams. It helps you streamline the entire hiring process - from attracting top talent and managing candidates efficiently, to collaborating with hiring managers, onboarding new hires, and tracking performance metrics.

By automating manual tasks and centralising your recruitment efforts, an ATS not only enhances candidate engagement but also saves your organisation time, money, and resources. It reduces risk, improves consistency, and ultimately helps you build stronger, more effective teams.

Organisations of any size, from small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) to large enterprise corporations can benefit from using an Applicant Tracking System (ATS), regardless of industry.

An ATS streamlines and automates recruitment processes, making it easier to attract, engage, hire, and onboard candidates efficiently. It also helps you manage relationships with candidates, hiring managers, and departments more effectively.

A best-of-breed ATS can support complex recruitment needs, including multiple brands within a business, varied recruitment workflows, and global hiring requirements, making it a scalable solution that grows with your organisation.

Not quite. While they’re both essential recruitment tools, an ATS and a CRM serve different purposes.

An Applicant Tracking System (ATS) is used by in-house recruitment and talent acquisition teams to manage the end-to-end hiring process. It helps you attract candidates, streamline workflows, collaborate with hiring managers, onboard new hires, and measure recruitment performance.

Candidate Relationship Management (CRM) tools focus on building and nurturing talent pipelines. It supports proactive recruitment by engaging candidates through job alerts, email, and SMS campaigns - enhancing your employer brand and keeping top talent interested.

Eploy combines the power of ATS, Recruitment CRM, onboarding, and analytics into a single web-based platform. Fully integrated with your careers site, it delivers a seamless and engaging experience for both candidates and hiring teams.
