The upcoming integration of the first free Job Boards is simply the beginning for SmartRecruiters and you should expect much more still to come.  As of today, we are also in the process of partnering with other job boards and we are exploring a variety of other sourcing channels that can be integrated into your ATS.  This is also where we would love to hear from you – which are your favorite Job Boards? Which sourcing channels do you most rely on and use? Let us know.

With SmartRecruiters the “bailout” offer is not just the opportunity to get ATS technology for free, but also to be able to get your own Career Site and Candidate Portal, as well as a more complete range of additional sourcing and recruitment options.  It is an opportunity to take a free and more integrated approach to recruiting.

FREE-Easy Greetings!

Many thanks for the support, kind words, and the fantastic feedback that you have all been sending to us. It is our sincere hope that SmartRecruiters will continue to invoke such great responses from so many great people like you.

Looking back at the last few weeks, we can’t help but feel excited and humbled by the interest that SmartRecruiters has generated. There is still a long way to go, but we believe we have enough reasons to look optimistically ahead. Will SmartRecruiters play a part in changing our industry?  Will the concept truly catch on and spread to other industries as well? Well, only time will tell what the future holds.  So far, we can say that the prospects for SmartRecruiters look pretty good. The community of users is growing, we have our first partner (learn more here), and we just took another important step forward by introducing some new improvements and fixes to the ATS, all based on some of the great  feedback and comments we have received from you (find out more here). We are delighted to have captured your interest and we thank you for taking this journey with us! For more updates and to stay connected to us and other users, you can follow us on Twitter and join our groups on LinkedIn and Facebook.

Well, there is no catch. SmartRecruiters is really free now and free forever. Yes, MrTed will make money on SmartRecruiters, but it will not make money by asking you to pay for the ATS or in any way limit your full access to all its functions and features. With SmartRecruiters there are no trials, no limited, premium, or exclusive editions. You get full access to the complete system without any restrictions or limits, so you never have to pay a dime for your ATS.

And in the meantime, you will just end up buying your recruiting services through your SmartRecruiters ATS. These are the same services that you would buy and use anyway, like job postings, a background check or sourcing a candidate for example. So you get easy access to recruiting services anytime you want to use them straight from your SmartRecruiters ATS, while MrTed generates profits from service vendors for bringing your business to them. And the best part is that in the long run you might even end up paying less for your services, because you have the buying power of all the SmartRecruiters members using the system.

And there you go. It’s that simple. When we say free, we really mean it. Because SmartRecruiters really is free and it’s easy!

Looking back at it, it is really hard to believe that the time to launch has finally come. I have to admit that we are excited and a bit scared at the same time. It has been a little more than a year of hard work for our small but passionate team and now the moment to unveil SmartRecruiters is finally coming. It is our humble contribution to innovative thinking within the industry - an ATS, which is free and easy. Without any catch and with no strings attached, as simple as it is - free and easy.

From the very start SmartRecruiters has always been about innovation and making a difference. It is a new model for the industry and frankly, we don´t know what the future holds for it. It all depends on what the market and the recruiting community make of it because this is as much our project, as it is yours. There is still a long way ahead and we really hope you will take this journey with us. Most of all though, we hope that you like SmartRecruiters and enjoy using it. We hope it will make recruiting more accessible, easier, and a bit more fun.
