Key takeaways:

  • Not all ATS are resume parser
  • The combination of ATS and resume parsing makes wonders
  • Parseur is a powerful resume parser that integrates seamlessly with ATS

Ah, you found our article for the 5 best applicant tracking systems in town. I get it - ATS systems are like the cool kids on the block. Now, I know what you're thinking. "But where's the fun in talking about ATS software?"

We'll also have a bonus section: did you know that when you integrate an ATS with Parseur, it can make wonders and revolutionize your HR processes?

What is an ATS?

In layman terms, an ATS helps to streamline HR processes by scanning and sorting job applications.

Does all ATS have resume parsing?

That's a good question! But, before we answer that, let's first understand what resume parsing is.

Resume parsing is the process of automatically extracting data from resumes and exporting them to an HR database or tool. The best resume parsers are usually integrated with artificial intelligence and machine learning.

So, if you can integrate an ATS with resume parsing, it means that you're getting the best of both worlds.

There are applicant tracking software that have a built-in resume parsing such as Zoho Recruit or Affinda but, they are in minority and may not fit your requirements too.

We have a solution for you, but first let's praise those ATS resume parser.
