Today, recruiting teams aim to instantly fill positions while providing excellent candidate experiences. Nonetheless, repetitive duties tend to hold back many TA heads and top interviewers. And if your Application Tracking System (ATS) isn’t set up for automatic ATS, they become overburdened with manual work, resulting in delays during hiring and poor candidate management.
MyNextHire is an AI-first ATS designed to tackle these challenges by mechanizing procedures, improving recruiters' productivity, and maintaining a seamless flow in operations.
This article will outline key indicators that point towards the absence of ATS automation and explain how MyNextHire can help you change yours so that it transforms into a recruitment ecosystem.
You will know your ATS automation is not enough if there is too much time spent on administrative duties that are mechanical or routine all the time. These can include tasks such as manually sorting through resumes, sending out follow up emails and scheduling interviews, which all slow down the process significantly.
In the absence of HR workflow automation, these tasks remain a bottleneck that leaves minimal room for real engagement with candidates.
It leads to:
To solve this problem, MyNextHire automates certain parts of the recruitment process cycle. MyNextHire is responsible for parsing resumes, ranking candidates, scheduling interviews and sending follow-ups, among other things.
If recruitment process automation does not exist in your ATS, tracking applicants as they move across different stages becomes tedious. Often, recruiters end up using spreadsheets or making manual status updates, which lead to:
Consequently, MyNextHire tackles these inefficiencies by providing real-time candidate tracking capabilities. This enables recruiters to monitor candidate progress, automatically activate status updates, and work closely with the hiring team. It enhances communication as well as decision-making at large. Thus, no potential employee qualifies without you knowing it.
You can easily tell when an organization lacks recruitment process automation because its recruiters spend hours doing manual screening and shortlisting of resumes. This problem arises mostly due to the inability of conventional ATS systems to apply sophisticated algorithms that align job positions with potential applicants’ qualifications.
However, MyNextHire approaches resume screening through AI-powered automation, which would make it more efficient and accurate. The platform analyzes resumes using AI models, rates candidates according to predefined rules and automatically shortlists the most suitable applicants. This speeds up the screening process and enhances the quality of hires.
However, important communication with job seekers may be in the recruitment process. It becomes problematic when HR automatization is missing within these departments. This makes most applicants hard to contact.
MyNextHire addresses this challenge by sending personalized updates, interview reminders, and follow-ups based on pre-set timelines to all candidates applying through their platform. This keeps them engaged during the entire process, which consequently leads to employer branding improvements and better offer acceptance rates.
Another instance occurs where manual interview scheduling happens due to a lack of automation in your ATS. This often results in:
For example, MyNextHire integrates seamlessly with calendar applications like Google Calendar and Microsoft Outlook to automate the entire interview scheduling process. It also automatically gathers structured interviewer feedback for thorough, consistent, and data-driven candidate evaluations.
As organizations expand, so do their recruitment requirements. Nevertheless, recruitment process automation makes it much more difficult for recruiting efforts to be scaled up as an organization grows.
As companies grow, they require more employees, so they need to grow their recruitment processes as well as automate them for increased efficiency.
