Many organisations have to cope with large numbers of applicants from jobseekers. To cope with this some companies use automated candidate management systems, powered by an Applicant Tracking System (ATS); this sits behind the company website and will screen applications and CVs, and decide automatically who deserves an interview.

Advice to graduates has always been to research the job and the company and produce a CV and on line application that is unique to each job, ensuring there is a good match between their skills and strengths and those asked for by the employer. The use of this type of software in the recruitment process makes this doubly important.
