Best applicant tracking system I've used
What do you like best about The Applicant Manager?
I love how customizable TAM is. Ive used many different applicant tracking systems in my career but the problem that i've found with the others is the lack of ability to customize. Working in the government contracting industry my candidates require a security clearance. Other systems I've used don't allow me to easily, or even at all, create fields for clearance information and levels. This is just one of nuances in this industry that I need my applicant tracking system to be able to sort by, run reports on, and identify. The folks at TAM were able to show me how to create fields, prescreening questions, and store information for this. It is very easy to set up so that the user can create exactly what they need to see for their specific industry requirements. Other systems seem to be based on a very generic version of what someone in the recruiting/staffing industry should need and doesn't recognize that not all industries are the same. I also love that it integrates with my email to capture all of the back and forth with my candidates so that I can go back and revisit candidates years later and remember all of the correspondence with them. Plus the staff at TAM doesn't just set you up and disappear.They are always available to help make changes or review updates they've made. They are dedicated to making sure that their customers are getting the most out of their tool, which is also extremely reasonably priced compared to its competitors.
What do you dislike about The Applicant Manager?
I would like to see a little more flexibility in the reporting features.
What problems is The Applicant Manager solving and how is that benefiting you?
I am able to track hundreds of open positions and the candidates that apply. I can see the last time I communicated with all of the candidates to make sure that I haven't forgotten to stay connected with anyone. i was able to create a custom work flow of steps and I can get a snapshot of where all of my candidates are in my hiring process, or how many candidates I have at each step of my process for each of the open positions that I have to for each of the contracts that I am working on. when candidates answer my prescreening questions I can quickly see if someone meets the minimum requirements for each position and if not I am able to still respond to each and every applicant with a click of a button based on event triggers that I set up which sends an email, again that I customized, for me to them that will reiterates the position that they applied for and, their name, etc., and why they aren't a fit. It saves me a ton of time having to respond to everyone while still responding to everyone. TAM saves me a lot of time by automating a lot of features without making it look like its "automated'. It allows a much more personal feeling.

Great technical and personal support.
What do you like best about The Applicant Manager?
Terrific support. Can call or email and get almost immediate quality response. The few times there wasn't an immediate solution available, there was still prompt follow up. All issues/questions get resolved.
What do you dislike about The Applicant Manager?
No dislikes at all after four years of use.
What problems is The Applicant Manager solving and how is that benefiting you?
TAM helps organize our recruiting process. Eliminated manual recruiting practices and provides useful reports with minimal effort. TAM has lots of useful features for a small/midsize company that are easy to use even for an administrator who is not a technology wizard. Good features for a small to medium size company.

Simple, effective, and cost efficient!
What do you like best about The Applicant Manager?
I have been recruiting for over a decade, and TAM is probably the most user friendly and cost effective platform that I have used (I am experienced in at least a half-dozen different applicant tracking databases).
What do you dislike about The Applicant Manager?
The dashboard is a bit old-fashioned as far as ATS systems go, but it's still very easy to read and understand. It's also customizable, so that outweighs the dated look and feel.
Recommendations to others considering The Applicant Manager?
I love the price per user model for TAM. Also, it was so easy to upload years of data and resumes into the system.
What problems is The Applicant Manager solving and how is that benefiting you?
With TAM, I have been able to streamline talent, pipeline, and move candidates through our process with relative ease.

User Friendly ATS
What do you like best about The Applicant Manager?
I have been a TAM user for nearly 5 years now and have been very pleased with this ATS. TAM is a well organized, efficient and reliable platform which makes for a streamlined recruitment process. It is easy to post to multiple job boards in one quick step which is a definite time saver. You can customize in accordance with the specific needs of the organization. Also, customer service is helpful if you have any questions.
What do you dislike about The Applicant Manager?
Given that our hiring is highly seasonal, it would be nice if it was possible to freeze the service during months when we are not hiring in order to save money. However, other than that I do not have any complaints at this moment.
Recommendations to others considering The Applicant Manager?
I highly recommend TAM to anyone considering the platform.
What problems is The Applicant Manager solving and how is that benefiting you?
It has been great to have all candidate information in one centralized location. Searching applicant information is seamless.
