Recruiternet, Inc., a leading provider of Applicant Tracking Systems (ATS), announced several major feature enhancements to its Projectix suite of products. Improved in response to direct feedback and interest from its hundreds of corporate HR users, Recruiternet has expanded the Projectix feature set to include a new offer management suite, additional prescreening tools, form letters, as well as improvements to its searching capabilities, database flexibility, and more.

Recruiternet has developed the following functionality that will be available immediately for new Projectix customers, and provided free of charge to existing Projectix customers as part of their purchase agreements:

- New Offer Management Suite

This allows an HR manager to create an offer to an applicant either on their own or using the Offer Templates tool. Managers can track offer status and create offer "signoff paths" so that each appropriate manager is given an opportunity to approve or decline before the offer is actually sent, ensuring control throughout the hiring process.

- New Profiling and Prescreening Suite

This suite allows the HR manager to create multiple candidate-specific and/or job-specific questionnaires, called profiles, to improve candidate-to-position matching. A profile can be created and applied to all incoming candidates, and a different set of questions can be attached to each specific requisition, enabling the creation of rich datasets about individual applicants' suitability for various positions from which more informed decisions can be made.

- Form Letters

New form letter functionality enables the generation of personalized letters to applicants at any stage of the interview and hiring process. Templates include response letters, interview letters, offer letters, and they may be sent electronically or printed for mailing. Form letters reduce the time spent on these administrative tasks while improving a company's responsiveness to each applicant.

To further improve the rich suite of reporting, tracking, and database functionality in Projectix, additional improvements were made to those functions, including:

- Improved Application Source Tracking

Candidates often enter a client database through one source, but return and apply to another job by following a specific job requisition posted on a different source. A new reporting tool allows managers to track both the original source of the candidate as well as the source of the job-specific application.

- Improved EEO Data Collection and Reporting

Managers can now view complete EEO reports in full compliance with EEO regulations.

- New Requisition Hold Capability

Managers can place job requisitions on hold without affecting important position metrics such as time-to-fill.

- Improved Database Auditing, Data Stability, and Searching Tools

The Projectix system now has better protection against accidental data deletion, enhanced Boolean searching capabilities, and improved stability for large databases.

- Many improved reporting, sourcing and tracking tools

"We are sending the message that we listen to our customers, especially in today's tough economic environment where HR professionals' efforts to attract and retain the right talent are more critical than ever. Over the past several months, we've had our heads down making sure that Projectix remains the best Applicant Tracking System available anywhere," said Bob Neveu, President of Recruiternet. "Our customers have asked us for these important new features and, in keeping with our reputation for superior customer response, we've delivered yet again."
