Market ATS (Applicant Tracking System) software (Greenhouse, Lever) is expensive and rigid. Many companies prefer building their own recruitment flow in **Jestor**, integrating resume databases, interview scheduling, and technical tests in a visual pipeline.

### **The Candidate Pipeline**

Treat candidates like sales leads. Kanban: "Applied" > "Screening" > "HR Interview" > "Tech Interview" > "Offer." In Jestor, moving the card to "Offer" can generate the Offer Letter automatically.

### **Own Talent Pool**

Don't lose the "almost hired." If the candidate did well but the position closed, tag them "Future Talent." When a new role opens, search your database before posting on LinkedIn.

### **Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)**

**Does Jestor receive resumes?** Yes. Create a Public Form ("Careers") and put it on your site. The resume lands directly in the Kanban.

**How do managers evaluate?** The hiring manager gets access only to their role's candidates. They give ratings (stars) and internal comments.

**Does it integrate with LinkedIn?** You can use integration tools to pull data from LinkedIn into[Jestor](https://jestor.com/?ref=blog.jestor.com).

### **Conclusion**

With **Jestor**, you hire better, faster, and create an amazing candidate experience.
