Recruiting top talent in the education sector is increasingly challenging. With a competitive job market, unique hiring requirements, and the need for efficient processes, educational institutions require a robust Applicant Tracking System (ATS) to streamline their talent acquisition efforts.

Investing in or making the move to a new Applicant Tracking System is one of the most important decisions a talent acquisition team can make. The right system doesn’t just help streamline hiring; it transforms how organisations attract, engage, and retain top talent.

Getting started with an Applicant Tracking System (ATS) can feel overwhelming and raise many questions. With so many different vendors, features, and buzzwords to navigate, it’s not always clear where to begin. Yet, for organisations of all sizes, the right ATS can transform the way you attract, hire, and retain talent.

In 2025, Applicant Tracking Systems (ATS) are widely adopted across organisations of all sizes. Nearly 99% of all Fortune 500 companies regularly use ATS platforms. 94% of recruiters agree that their ATS has had a positive impact on their hiring processes, further showcasing the competitive advantage of having the right candidate tracking system in place.

An applicant tracking system (ATS) helps recruiters save time by automating repetitive manual tasks such as job posting, CV screening, interview scheduling, and candidate engagement. This enables recruiters to focus on attracting and engaging top talent, instead of having to spend most of their day managing administrative work.

The job market is highly competitive, yet even the most talented new hires can become disengaged, overwhelmed, or even leave if they don’t feel they’ve been welcomed properly with all they need to start in their new role. That’s where employee onboarding comes in. If structured well and thoughtfully, this process turns promising new recruits into confident, productive team members.

Factoring in the size of the recruitment sector, it’s no surprise that there are countless tools and systems available to try and make the hiring process simpler for recruitment teams across many sectors. Here is a quick overview to what an ATS system is and how it can help you achieve.

Choosing between an Applicant Tracking System and an HR Suite that has a ‘Recruiting Module’ can be a difficult task. While there is no ‘one-size-fits-all’ answer for all organisations, in this blog, we explore the key differences between ATS and HRIS, including how these recruitment tools can be applied in practice.
