Definition
An ATS (applicant tracking system) is software that manages the hiring process - posting jobs, collecting applications, and moving candidates through interview stages to an offer.
An ATS organizes recruiting the way a CRM organizes sales. Every candidate is a record that moves through stages such as Applied, Screen, Interview, and Offer, so a hiring team always knows where each person stands.
An ATS centralizes resumes, structures interview feedback, and reduces the chaos of hiring across email and spreadsheets. It also creates the audit trail needed for fair and compliant hiring.
Atlas includes hiring as part of HR, so open roles, candidates, and interview stages sit alongside the employee records new hires eventually become.
