With a smart ATS, you can automate processes, empower hiring managers to take action themselves, and maintain oversight — all without needing to be constantly available. Want to set yourself up for a worry-free summer too? We’ll show you how.
1. Grant access rights to hiring managers
A major advantage of a competency-driven ATS is that you can assign permissions per vacancy. This way, the right hiring manager gets access to their own vacancies.
This allows them to independently review candidates, schedule interviews, and provide feedback — all without your intervention as a recruiter. No delays, and your vacancies stay live while you relax by the pool. Meanwhile, your time-to-hire remains on track, your recruitment process becomes more efficient, and ownership among your internal stakeholders grows.
2. Collect input from hiring managers before your vacation
The weeks leading up to your vacation are the perfect time to gather input from your hiring managers. What are their expectations for the summer period? Which competencies are they looking for in new colleagues? Which vacancies can be initiated in advance? Are there candidate profiles that could be refined?
With Recrout’s ATS, you can create new candidate profiles, job descriptions, and vacancy texts based on that input. This way, you set things in motion before your vacation and keep achieving results even while you’re away!
3. Tap into your talent pools
If you’ve been using our ATS for a while, you’ve likely built up talent pools with interesting profiles over the past months. Summer is the perfect time to reach out to these talents again. Passive job seekers often have more time during the summer to respond to exciting opportunities.
Who knows — you might find the perfect candidate even before you leave, before a vacancy is even live. After all, new isn’t always better.
4. Assign tasks to your backup in the ATS dashboard
No one wants to be disturbed during their vacation — especially not with practical questions like, “What was I supposed to do with vacancy X?” With Recrout’s ATS, that’s no longer necessary. Our smart software lets you easily set up tasks in your dashboard, so your backup knows exactly what needs to be done, when, and how. Think of candidate touchpoints or the dates when vacancies go live.
The task simply pops up on the specified date. You can add all the necessary information yourself, ensuring your process keeps running smoothly while you enjoy your vacation uninterrupted.
5. Schedule job postings automatically
Even during vacation, you want to stay visible on job boards and social media channels. Recrout’s ATS allows you to schedule job postings in advance. You can decide when and where a vacancy will appear — even if you’re offline at that time.
This keeps your employer branding consistent and prevents a recruitment slump during the summer. Automating recruitment has never been easier. Time to enjoy your vacation stress-free!
Finally...
Switch off your phone and assign your backup colleague(s) as the contact person for your vacancies. Time to relax!
A worry-free summer starts with proper preparation and the right tools. With Recrout’s competency-driven ATS, you stay in control of the recruitment process even when you’re offline.
