Track the full recruitment journey, not just the outcome
Most hiring tools tell you who got hired. A real recruitment tracking system tells you how they got there. Draft records the entire journey: where the candidate came from, who reviewed them, what feedback was given, how long each stage took, and what communication was sent. This level of tracking turns every hire into a learning opportunity.
When you can see that your best hires consistently come from employee referrals and spend an average of five days in the interview stage, you can optimize your process with confidence. When you spot that candidates from a particular job board drop off at the screening stage, you know to reconsider that channel.
Real-time visibility for the whole team
Draft's pipeline boards update in real time. When a recruiter moves a candidate to the interview stage, the hiring manager sees it immediately. When an interviewer submits a scorecard, the recruiter is notified via Slack. There is no lag, no status meetings about status, and no wondering where things stand.
The analytics dashboard aggregates this activity into meaningful metrics. Pipeline velocity shows how fast candidates move through your process. Conversion rates reveal where candidates drop off. Source reports show which channels are worth your investment.
Job applicant tracking that candidates appreciate
Tracking is not just for your team. Candidates benefit too. Draft's self-service portal lets applicants see their status in real time, upload requested documents, and complete screening questionnaires. Automated email updates keep them informed at every stage. The result is a professional candidate experience that reflects well on your employer brand.
