Users can look through each resume, search for skills by keyword and ultimately schedule interviews for qualified candidates, The system can also host a collaborative feedback space for managers, and users can take employee referrals for positions.

With JobScience’s Resume Power tool, users can upload complete folders of applicant resumes into the system, which then creates individual candidate profiles for each candidate.

These profiles are then stored in the system, and recruiters can search past candidate profiles for a potential match to current job openings.

JobScience is an excellent Web-based applicant tracking and sourcing tool. From within the system, users can create job requisitions and automatically post them to their corporate social profiles, such as LinkedIn and Facebook.
