Don't lie to yourself. While you spend hours searching for fresh talent on LinkedIn, your ideal candidate is probably sitting unnoticed in your ATS. In today's market, where recruiters are competing for the same talent and racing against time-to-fill metrics, ignoring that goldmine of pre-qualified candidates is a mistake you cannot afford.
Let's talk numbers: hireEZ's data shows that those thousands of candidates who've already shown interest in your company are 2-3 times more likely to respond to your outreach than cold candidates. They're also way more likely to move through your pipeline faster (because they already know you!).
Yet most recruiters are still playing the LinkedIn cold outreach game, waiting for candidates to actually log in, getting ghosted left and right, while their ATS is jumping up and down screaming "Hey! Remember me?"
That's where hireEZ's Rediscovery comes in, turning your dusty ATS into a talent goldmine. It's like having a personal assistant who remembers every candidate you've ever talked to, complete with their entire storyline with your company.
Think of talent pools as your bird's-eye view of everyone who's ever shown interest in your company. Rediscovery doesn't just show you who's there, it shows you their temperature. Got candidates who are actively engaging with your content? They're hot. Someone who opened your emails in the last six months? Warm. No recent activity? You've got yourself a cold candidate who might need some warming up.
But here's where it gets interesting: Rediscovery automatically generates pools of your most promising candidates. Those silver medalists who made it to the final rounds? They're grouped together, ready for your next perfect role. Candidates who marked themselves as "open to opportunities"? They're right there, practically waving at you.
When you're deep in the trenches of filling a specific role, Rediscovery becomes your secret weapon. It automatically pulls in ATS candidates who match your current role, complete with their full interview history. Remember those detailed feedback notes from two years ago? They're all there, helping you craft the perfect outreach message.
The days of awkward outreach with outdated information are over. Rediscovery updates candidate profiles with their latest experience, giving you a clear picture of how they have grown since their last application. You can filter by specific timeframes, making it easy to find candidates who are past your company's reapplication waiting period. Want to see who has been contacted by other recruiters in the last 30 days? There is a filter for that as well.
You're not just limited to candidates who applied to similar roles. Rediscovery is smart enough to identify candidates who might be a perfect fit for your current role, even if they originally applied for something different. It's like having a super-powered talent scout who never sleeps and never forgets a candidate's potential.
Here's what makes Rediscovery a game-changer: These candidates respond 2-3x more frequently than candidates you send cold outreach. Why? Because they already know your company, are familiar with your process, and probably still have that spark of interest. They move through your pipeline faster, too. No need to explain your company culture to someone who's already been part of the journey.
Start with your hottest leads: those silver medalists who almost made it last time. Use their interview history to craft personalized messages that actually get responses. "Your feedback from your last interviews was fantastic, and I think you'd be perfect for this new role" has a much bigger impact than a generic InMail.
Monitor those warm candidates who have been opening your emails over the past few months. They are paying attention to you for a reason. With Rediscovery tracking every interaction, you can avoid the risk of multiple recruiters contacting the same person.
Your ATS isn't just a database, it's a goldmine of pre-qualified, pre-interested candidates who already know your company. While everyone else is fighting over the same LinkedIn profiles, you could be reconnecting with candidates who are twice as likely to respond and move through your pipeline faster.
Ready to turn your candidate history into your hiring future? That's what Rediscovery is all about. Time to dust off that ATS and let it work as hard as you do. Book a demo today to learn more about Rediscovery from hireEZ.
