The global applicant tracking system market is estimated to witness substantial growth in the forthcoming years owing to growing need for better hiring decisions in organizations to reduce recruitment expenses. Applicant tracking system (ATS) is an application or software that manages recruitment process in an organization by collecting and sorting resumes available in database. ATS also collects resumes and provides online view of job seekers after indexing and scanning their resumes. Most of the organizations extensively employ ATS applications to manage job applications. Data related to candidates looking for specific jobs can be collected from social media platforms, such as Facebook, Twitter, or LinkedIn, and internal applications via ATS. The system helps in eliminating requirement of human resource professionals in making recruitment decisions.

Increasing use of social media platforms in recruitment process by candidates and organizations is anticipated to augment the market growth in coming years. In addition, shifting preference for ATS over conventional recruitment methods attributed to reduced cost and time per hire can stimulate the product demand. The system does not require manual scrutinizing or any physical space for conducting interviews, and as a result, is likely to eliminate the need for newspaper ads. It can also be used to post job openings on various job portals and generate interview requests using e-mails. Additional features, such as automated resume ranking, applicant tracking, pre-screening questions, response tracking, and customized input forms save time and cost related to selection of suitable candidates. Moreover, increasing number of job applications are expected to fuel adoption of ATS among organizations to manage data across various storage platforms, such as network file shares, datacenters, hard disks, and local machines.

Lack of awareness regarding benefits of applicant tracking systems can hamper the market growth in the coming years. In addition, complexity in integration and automation process and growing concerns regarding privacy and data security are likely to hinder the market growth in the forthcoming years.
