Zoho Recruit: App of the day

Don't you wish there was something like bootcamp for your recruiting processes? Something that would whip your talent searches into tip-top shape? Well, with the right app, you can do just that.

Zoho Recruit is an all-in-one, cloud-based applicant tracking system for the modern recruiter. Built to provide diverse, end-to-end hiring solutions for staffing agencies, corporate HR teams, and temporary workforces, Zoho Recruit is intuitive and easy to use.

An efficient recruiting process starts with a solid employer brand, and Zoho Recruit lets you easily customize your Careers page, so it reflects your organization. You can also publish job openings on popular job boards.

To build the best pool of candidates, you can use Zoho Recruit's powerful Source Boosters to run enhanced searches that find you the right talent. Or you can leverage your employees' networks to find eligible candidates with Zoho Recruit's referrals feature.

If you have a team of recruiters—or work on one—the app lets you seamlessly organize your recruitment team around geography or product line. You can share accounts among territories, identify regions with hiring needs, and allocate resources accordingly while still creating a top-notch candidate experience.

From there, you can narrow down your list with pre-screening assessments, so you find only the best potential fits for a role. You can even auto-fill candidate information using their LinkedIn profile. And at any time, you can get a 360° view of your recruitment pipeline to see how many candidates are in each stage of a job search.

When a candidate accepts your offer, you can use templates to send offer letters with a single click of a button. You can also maintain safe, compliant, and inclusive hiring practices with background-screening functionality built into the app.

There's so much talent in this world. Finding it shouldn't be hard—and with Zoho Recruit, it isn't.

You can automate your HR talent and recruitment with Zapier's Zoho Recruit integrations. Here are a few popular workflows to get you started.
