Seeking ATS/CRM Recommendations
Hello everyone! I’ve spent quite a bit of time sifting through the posts here and doing some independent research. After exploring several demos, I’m still struggling to find a software solution that meets the unique needs of my company.
We’re a startup staffing agency specializing in the life sciences sector. My partner and I have tried various software options in the past, but ironically, we’ve favored proprietary platforms like eRecruit and Compass. Currently, we’re using Recruit CRM based on recommendations, but we find the lack of a separate lead pipeline to be a significant drawback, especially in contract staffing.
I’m looking for assistance in identifying an integrated ATS/CRM that offers the following features (assuming such a solution exists):
- Customizable candidate/contact profile fields
- AI-driven or intelligent resume sourcing
- LinkedIn Recruiter integration (or a custom API integration to access existing candidates)
- The ability to create leads within candidate profiles that can be viewed separately and converted into contact profiles
- Robust analytics and reporting capabilities
I know this is quite a tall order with multiple specifications, and it may sound like a pipe dream, but I believe if anyone can lend a hand, it’s this community. Thank you!
