One of the qualities that we’re most proud of is Newton’s ability to clear the ‘fog of war’ that often envelopes corporate recruiting programs. At the end of the day, the most important benefit that applicant tracking software can provide is visibility. Recruiting is a ‘busy’ business process that creates a massive amount of information. Organizing and managing this information into easy to access, easy to read dashboards is paramount.
We’ve designed Newton’s home page to be ‘air traffic control’ for corporate hiring. See all of the jobs that are important to you at a glance and all of your applicants in the pipelines for those jobs organized by what stage of the process they are in. Newton’s home page creates an automatic staffing report just by logging in and doesn’t require any clicking around. Now, turn on Newton’s enhanced interview tracking feature and get detailed, real-time visibility into each candidates’ interview stage like 1st phone screens, 2nd interviews and even rescheduled interviews automatically. You’ll track the number of phone screens, the number interviews and even reschedules for each candidate right from your home page.
Using Newton’s enhanced interview tracking feature will allow your recruiting team to gather more meaningful and powerful recruiting metrics with very little impact on your hiring managers. Coupled with Newton’s state of the art custom reporting engine, Newton’s interview tracking capabilities empower organizations to continuously improve recruiting efficiency and overall effectiveness.
