Branded, mobile-first career sites
Start with the candidate experience on fully branded, SEO-optimized career sites. Filters, keyword search, Google Maps, and related jobs make roles easy to find and apply for — reducing drop-offs and boosting applicant volume.
Fast, transparent requisitions
Quickly identify requisitions and their approval status so every hire starts on time. A centralized dashboard shows reqs in flight and pending approvals, keeping hiring managers and recruiters aligned.
Pipeline visibility at a glance
View all active applicants, their stages, and key indicators — manager flags, assessment results, and background check status — all in one tab. Recruiters see the whole pipeline at a glance, with no digging through multiple screens.
“Excellent ATS for healthcare. It's super easy to keep track of active candidates as well as candidates that have applied in the past, as well as serving as a database for future contacts and prior employees."
Text, email, and schedule in one place
Keep communication and scheduling in one place. Batch text and email candidates, send calendar invites that sync with Outlook or Google, and add secure video conferences — no downloads required. Text response rates average 45% compared to 8% for email, helping you move faster on high-demand roles.
Onboarding that’s day-one ready
Streamline onboarding with 10 standard forms, mobile-friendly completion, and the ability to assign, reassign, or reopen as needed. New-hire data exports directly to your HRIS or document storage, so day-one readiness is simple and repeatable.
Analytics you don’t have to wrestle
Go beyond raw reports with a curated analytics library and custom dashboards built right into symplr Recruiting. Track pipeline health, time to fill, and source performance, or schedule reports to arrive by email at the cadence you choose.
Fill roles faster, keep units staffed
Reducing time-to-fill isn’t just an HR metric – it means lower premium labor costs, safer staff-to-patient ratios, and better patient experiences.
Win the response race
Healthcare talent moves fast, and waiting on email won’t cut it. With built-in texting, recruiters reach candidates where they respond first — driving 45% response rates compared to just 8% for email. That speed means you secure scarce talent before competitors do.
Give recruiters back their bandwidth
Healthcare recruiters juggle nearly 50% more requisitions than recommended. Automation for postings, offers, and scheduling reclaims hours of manual work each week — the equivalent of adding extra FTEs without extra payroll. More time goes to building relationships, less to chasing paperwork.
