The problem

Hiring shouldn't end with retyping the hire

CVs sit in inboxes, feedback in chat, offers in email. Once the offer is accepted, HR types the same name, salary, and start date in again.

Hiring plan

Approve headcount so every job starts with a budget

A manager requests a position with the role, salary range, and hiring date. Approvers decide by your policy, with a comment on record. The approved request opens a job and tracks it to Hired.

01Position requests
job profile, location, salary range, date, and files in one form
02Approval by policy
sequential or parallel steps, with substitution when someone is away
03Job from the request
open a job pre-filled from the request or link an existing one
04Status to Hired
Awaiting, Approved, Hiring, Hired, with the new hires listed

Career pages & sourcing

Bring every applicant into one candidate base

Career page applications become candidates with a parsed CV and source. A Chrome extension saves LinkedIn profiles. Each person keeps one profile, with a card per job.

01Career pages per entity
your logo, colors, and URL; publish a job to one or several pages
02CV parsing on apply
each application creates a candidate with a parsed CV and source
03Sourcing extension
save a LinkedIn or Behance profile to a job after a duplicate check
04One profile per person
merge duplicates; download CVs as the original, PDF, or DOCX

Pipelines & evaluation

Score every candidate on the same criteria

Each job gets a pipeline with a time limit per stage. SK.AI scores every CV against the job requirements, interviewers fill in one scorecard, and people make the decision.

01Pipelines per role
stages from a shared library, with a time limit for each one
02AI candidate scoring
overall match, summary, and a rating for each job requirement
03Scorecard feedback
invite any employee; see the average score and who still owes it
04Disqualify with a reason
record why, or reserve the candidate for a future role

Communication & offers

Follow up and send offers without chasing anyone

Email candidates from Gmail or Outlook; follow-ups stop when they reply. Interviews sync to Google Calendar with a Meet link. Offers pass approval, and the hire opens a filled-in employee form.

01Your own mailbox
Gmail or Outlook, with candidate replies saved in the profile
02Follow-up sequences
up to 5 steps, 1–30 days apart, stopped by the candidate's reply
03Interviews in Calendar
Google Calendar events tied to candidate and job, with a Meet link
04Offers with approval
hide salary or manager, then share as a PDF or a public link

What does Skailer ATS software cover?

Skailer ATS is the applicant tracking system inside the Skailer HR platform. In-house teams approve headcount through position requests, publish jobs on career pages, and move candidates through a pipeline per role. It scores CVs with AI, collects scorecards, emails candidates from Gmail or Outlook with follow-ups that stop on reply, and routes offers through approval. Recruiting gets the hire to an accepted offer; Core HR and Onboarding take it from there.
