Top 20 Benefits of an Applicant Tracking System (ATS) for Home Care Recruiting

Home care recruiting is one of the hardest recruiting jobs and recruiters (and internal HR departments) are faced with many challenges.   Here are just a few:

• High turn over rate! Some of the largest across industries

• Applicants might not be very technical

Luckily there are products that can assist you in making your job much easier.  Using an applicant tracking system (ATS) such as ApplicantStack can simplify the home care recruiting and employee onboarding process.

Top 20 Benefits of an Applicant Tracking System (ATS) for Home Care Recruiting:
