Are there any applicant tracking systems (ATS) tailored for online communities?
I manage a WhatsApp group with around 800 job seekers and hiring managers, and I’m looking for a better way to organize candidates and job postings. Currently, everyone just shares information, which has become quite chaotic. Does anyone have recommendations?

Absolutely, there are several Applicant Tracking Systems (ATS) and tools that can help organize candidates and job postings in an online community like yours. Here are a few suggestions that might work well for your WhatsApp group:
Trello: You can create boards for different job openings and candidates. Members can add their resumes or job postings to the relevant boards, allowing for easier navigation and organization.
Slack: If you’re open to shifting platforms, Slack allows for organized channels where you can create specific channels for job postings, candidate applications, and feedback. You can also integrate various job-related apps and bots to streamline the process.
Google Sheets: While not a traditional ATS, setting up a shared Google Sheet can help track job applications and candidates. You can create columns for job titles, candidates, statuses, and links to resumes or profiles.
JobScore: This is a user-friendly ATS designed for small teams. It allows collaboration, job posting, and candidate tracking, which could help manage your community more efficiently.
Zoho Recruit: Another comprehensive ATS option, Zoho allows you to manage job postings, resumes, and applications all in one place. It also offers features for collaboration and communication with team members.
Notion: This is a versatile tool where you can create a job board or candidate database. It allows for a lot of customization and can be set up to fit your specific needs.
Discord: Similar to Slack, if you want to keep the community nature of your group, Discord offers text and voice channels to organize discussions related to job postings and applications.
You might want to consider a combination of tools to best fit your community’s needs. A simple solution could be using Google Sheets for tracking and maintaining an active WhatsApp group for communication. Best of luck!
