“We are always striving to enhance the hiring process for our current and future customers by incorporating requested functionality that aligns with our vision of a simple, effective applicant tracking and resume management solution,” said Vice President of Marketing & Business Development, Mike Wagner.

The questionnaire functionality allows users to add related questions with free-form, single choice, or multiple choice response options to specific positions. Once the position has questions associated with it, those questions will be displayed on the web submission form for applicants. The candidate’s answers will then be stored and visible in the applicant detail page.

If you’re on the other side of the job-seeking equation and are hiring new staff, then a useful tool to help manage your applicants is a website with the encouraging name Catch the Best.

When you list your positions online, Catch the Best gives you unique submission email and Web addresses for each one.

If you are posting the ad on multiple job boards, your own company website or Craigslist, then these unique addresses let you easily track where your applicants are coming from. This will help you eliminate sites that don’t send you qualified leads so that you can streamline future hiring.

People in your company who have access to the site can rate applicants with a thumbs-up or -down as they review the resumés. This lets you easily see which applicants are most suited for the job. You can click on each applicant’s name to see the information they submitted when they filled in your online application.

To help you post job ads on your own site or any forum, social network or job board where you can drop in some HTML, Catch the Best gives you a javascript widget that you can paste into these pages. This gives you the ability to cast your net far and wide.”

Catch the Best may not have open source as a feature like CATS, but it is bringing Ruby on Rails, Digg-style voting, and a polished UI (complete with rounded corners and gradients!) to the e-recruitment software market.

Once you’ve created a Catch the Best account, you can enable a public listing of all your open positions by visiting the Career Site link via the account settings. Once enabled, copying and pasting one line of javascript from the Career Site page into a page hosted at your web site will load all of your open positions listed in Catch the Best on your own jobs page. Each listing on your page will have a link back to Catch the Best for candidates to apply directly from your web site.

Having your own jobs page at your site couldn’t be any easier. Try Catch the Best now to find out how easy it can be to manage, share, and rate your job applicants.

These job- and source-specific URLs allow you to get the most accurate source tracking info available in any applicant tracking system, and there is almost no set-up involved. Once you create your open position, just add the sources you want to track directly from the position detail page, and the URLs will be created on the fly.

In case you’re curious what the feature is, I’ll give you a hint: it has to do with email.
