Recruitment automation is no longer a buzzword—it’s the backbone of modern hiring. But with so many applicant tracking systems (ATS) on the market, how do you choose the one that truly fits your needs? In this post, we pit TargetRecruit’s enterprise-grade platform against hAIre’s Advanced ATS, showing you why the latter might just be the recruitment automation partner your organisation has been waiting for.

The Rise of Recruitment Automation

Gone are the days of paper CVs and spreadsheets. Today’s hiring teams demand:

Speed: Fill roles faster to stay competitive.
Precision: Match candidates’ skills to roles with laser focus.
Insights: Understand market shifts and spot emerging talent pools.

That’s where recruitment automation steps in. By leveraging AI, analytics, and seamless workflows, an ATS transforms chaotic hiring cycles into slick, data-driven processes.

Competitor Spotlight: TargetRecruit’s ATS

Built on Salesforce, TargetRecruit is a heavyweight in the staffing and recruitment software arena. Here’s what it brings to the table:

Strengths

Native to Salesforce: Leverage a trusted CRM ecosystem.
Modular Design: Front office, middle office, back office—pick what you need.
Easy Automation: Schedule workflows, candidate outreach, and reporting.
AI Agents: Smart assistants for faster sourcing and screening.
Robust Integrations: Connect with job boards, payroll systems, and more.

“Our biggest win? Centralising every stage of hiring—from candidate sourcing to pay and bill—all within one platform.”

Limitations

Steep Learning Curve: You need Salesforce experts to set it up.
Subscription Costs: Licensing fees can stretch budgets, especially for SMEs.
Data Silos: Unless carefully configured, modules can feel disconnected.
Generic Analytics: Limited insights into regional job markets or specific skill gaps.

If you’re a large enterprise with an IT team and deep pockets, TargetRecruit delivers. But what about organisations craving simplicity, affordability, and localised insights?
