What is Applicant Tracking System?
Hiring the right talent and keeping them, has always been a frustrating task because of the hassle of tracking candidate sheets, interview timings, selection process, and finally onboarding. Imagine an automation process which has combined power of human and machine to connect with the right workforce.
Hence, ATS is remote hiring software that serves as an effective way to check the number of job openings, screen CVs, hiring pipeline against a vacancy, number & status of interviews taken, generating offer letters in a tailored format, reports & analytics, etc. This creates total transparency between the recruiter, manager, and company.
Features of ATS:
- Job opening status: Companies can create openings with the help of NYGGS ATS contains all the necessary information like budget, job description, etc, and take approval for the same from the respective manager. Once openings will be approved, a recruiter can add multiple candidates’ profiles against the same opening. It is in the scenarios when the recruiter already has an excel tracking sheet or manually wants to add each candidate. It will bring transparency and productivity to the organization.
- Sourcing tools: An undeniable global bloom of artificial intelligence has surfaced in the recruitment industry at a breakneck speed. It has allowed:
2(1) Integration of job boards, website career page, and social media platforms with the software will automatically post your job openings from software to all those integrated channels.
2(2) Integration of ATS with job widgets like Naukri/ Indeed etc, to parse the resumes on the basis of keywords, grammar, and statistics that saves time and keeps the resumes organized.
2(3) Integration of ATS with mass mailing campaigns to source the candidate for your job openings.

Nyggs ats allows the recruiter to schedule an interview with a timeline, the number of rounds, notifications of upcoming interviews, the internal workflow of who will be taking which round interview. After multiple rounds, select the status of the candidate i.e, selected/rejected/offered/hold, etc. - Recruitment automation: When we talk about AI-enabled recruitment system, we expect:
4(1) Automated E-mail communication when a candidate submits their application, gets selected/rejected in any interview round, reschedules interview, reference requests, feedback surveys, shares offer letter, etc. And these email templates are also customizable.
4(2) Notification/alerts to recruiter about upcoming interviews, reminders about outstanding tasks.
4(3) NYGGS ATS has user-based access control so that an admin/manager/team member can be appointed on an opening. - Candidate Onboarding: We believe that employees’ experience with your brand starts with the onboarding process and this is also a time-consuming ordeal for recruiters. Nyggs ATS helps you to manage:
5(1) Lengthy document management system
5(2) Automatically generates offer letter after defining salary structure with joining date and T&C, if any, in the format exactly to be followed manually in your organization. - Analytical Reports: Yes, you are not integrating an ATS with your HR software, but hiring a virtual manager who’s sitting 24/7 to provide you reports on the basis of openings, interviews, branches, and status of the application. This is the perfect way to measure the performance of a recruiter.
