How to Design and Implement a Strategic Applicant Tracking System

2017 Talent Management Conference & Exposition
Workplace Application: This session will provide an understanding of how to effectively develop and implement a strategic and compliant applicant tracking system.

Learn how companies can use the Internet Applicant Rule to develop a strategic and compliant applicant tracking system (ATS). This session will discuss how to effectively use screening questions and disposition codes, how and when to search for candidates, and how to deal with information storage. When set up properly, a well-developed ATS can protect you during OFCCP audits while still getting to the best candidates as quickly as possible. You will learn:

·         How to take the next step of developing and implementing an ATS that is not only compliant but strategically positions
           employers to prevail in OFCCP audits.

·         Ways to strategically use an ATS to get to the best candidates as quickly as possible.

·         Effective applicant tracking processes, including initial candidate searches, filters, screening questions and automated
           candidate experience or “ACE” candidates.

·         About hot topics like recruiting on social media, strategic dispositioning and overall record retention requirements.
