Recruitment software has become more and more popular, and over the past few years has replaced the stacks of paper and written notes so common in the HR and Recruiting world. The use of Recruitment Software instead of spreadsheets and written notes was a welcome change for professionals who wanted an efficient way to record the recruiting process pertaining to both candidates and job orders.

Not only does the use of Recruitment software make it easier to keep up with information about jobs and candidates, it also allows recruitment professionals to keep track of larger numbers of both. In this economy, any staffing company or HR department can benefit from the value offered by Recruitment software since it allows more information to be tracked with less effort. A recruiter who could keep track of three positions and associated candidates may be able to keep up with 10 positions and their associated candidates by using recruitment software. The use of recruitment software allows a company to increase the number of jobs they are able to fill and decrease the amount of time it takes to do so.

Another advantage offered by recruitment software is less paper. Many workplaces are now encouraged to be "greener", and recruiting software aids in the effort. No longer do recruiters have to print resumes, interview questions, and job descriptions; they may all be stored using the recruitment software piece.

Recruitment Software may offer your company not only a great value, but a green value.
