An applicant tracking system (ATS) is a software application that enables the electronic handling of recruitment needs.

An ATS can be implemented or accessed online on an enterprise or small business level, depending on the needs of the company and there is also free and open source ATS software available.

An ATS is very similar to customer relationship management (CRM) systems, but are designed for recruitment tracking purposes.

In many cases they filter applications automatically based on given criteria such as keywords, skills, former employers, years of experience and schools attended.

This has caused many to adapt resume optimization techniques similar to those used in search engine optimization when creating and formatting their résumé.

Executive search (informally called headhunting) is a specialized recruitment service which organizations pay to seek out and recruit highly qualified candidates for senior-level and executive jobs (e.g., President, Vice-president, CEO).

Headhunters may also seek out and recruit other highly specialized and/or skilled positions in organizations for which there is strong competition in the job market for the top talent, such as senior data analysts or computer programmers.

The method usually involves commissioning a third-party organization, typically an executive search firm, but possibly a standalone consultant or consulting firm, to research the availability of suitable qualified candidates working for competitors or related businesses or organizations.

Having identified a shortlist of qualified candidates who match the client's requirements, the executive search firm may act as an intermediary to contact the individual(s) and see if they might be interested in moving to a new employer.

The executive search firm may also carry out initial screening of the candidate, negotiations on remuneration and benefits, and preparing the employment contract.

Recruitment (hiring) is a core function of human resource management.
