Feature-Heavy Applicant Tracking System, But Ideal for Small/Mid-Sized Companies

Shawn Parker
HR Specialist in Human Resources at CASE Credit Union (51-200 employees employees)

Pros

  • Integration with external site -- easy to have job posting links appear on our website, and connect directly to the Newton application portal
  • Email Templates -- easy to customize templates, that allow for consistent, compliant language when communicating with applicants

Cons

  • Page Layout -- the side-collapsing page layout can load inconsistently, and require frequent resizing of your window
  • Landing Page for Applicants -- the text that appears on your company careers page is generated through Newton, and only editable in HTML, which is not overly user-friendly.

Return on Investment

  • With templates, email outreach utilization has increased candidate response by 35%.
  • Refresh/repost best practices for older job postings has provided immediate upticks in response (up to 15 applicants in one day, for a posting that had drastically slowed in applicants).
