Cost of Hiring
How to Reduce Cost of Hiring
After we set up a dedicated career site for your company, here’s how you start recruiting directly from your company website:
With an applicant tracking system (ATS) and careers website like Vibbn, you can manage job requisitions and candidate tracking in one place while reducing your overall recruiting spend.
- Post your open job (we show you how, easy)
- Candidates can apply
- You review applicants as they roll in
The longer your job is posted, the more candidates you can get. One client told me that over 25% of visitors to their company website click the "Careers" link.
Essentially, your career website finds applicants for you 24/7.
This helps you rely less on job boards and staffing firms when recruiting, ultimately reducing your hiring costs.
This works because: People already visit your company website every day, and some of them want to work for you.
With Vibbn, they can immediately apply to your job postings, and your list of potential employees starts growing.
When you’re ready to hire, you have a list of applicants to start interviewing.
What if you’re not hiring for 6–8 months? By setting up your career site today, your recruiting process will be more effective once you do need to hire.
Think about what scenarios or times of the year you needed to hire someone in the past. It can be hard to find someone for a critical role at the last minute.
You should post a job as soon as possible so that you have a continuous list of interested candidates.
People already coming to your company website will see your open jobs. They are better candidates than the ones you find on Indeed or other job boards. Candidates from those job sites aren’t as serious about working for you as someone who goes to your website.
When they apply to a job, your applicant list grows. Months down the road you will have a list of candidates ready to be interviewed as you start the hiring process.
Three-day setup:
We set everything up for you in three days, and show you how to use your new system. Then, you can:
- Post jobs so candidates can apply
- Grow your list of potential candidates
- See each candidate’s name, phone, email, resume, and LinkedIn
- Track candidates through the interview process
To see how this approach fits alongside staffing firms, job boards, and referrals, you can also read about the 4 ways to find applicants and how different hiring platforms compare.

What is an applicant tracking system (ATS)?
An applicant tracking system (ATS) is software that helps you manage job requisitions and track candidates through each stage of the hiring process. Instead of juggling emails and spreadsheets, an ATS keeps all your candidate information, notes, and statuses in one place.
How does ATS software help reduce the cost of hiring?
ATS software and candidate tracking software reduce hiring costs by letting you recruit from your own careers website and talent pool instead of relying only on paid job boards or staffing firms. Over time, this lowers advertising and commission spend while speeding up time-to-fill.
What is the best ATS for small business?
The best ATS for small business is one that is simple to use, affordable, and tightly connected to your company website so candidates can apply easily. Vibbn focuses on being an applicant tracking system and careers website platform for small teams that want a straightforward way to post jobs and track candidates.
