TheATSGuy Review

An extension of his blog at JobDig, Inc., a company that helps businesses with their hiring and recruitment advertising, Jake Stupak's blog at TalentManagementTech.com is TheATSGuy Review.

A product specialist for JobDig Tracker's own ATS, Stupak provides an impartial, unbiased assessment of ATS technology with every post to TheATSGuy Review.

"I’m excited to be part of the TMT community, extending my reach and collaborating with others interested in HR, recruiting and technology," said Stupak. "During my twelve years in this field, I've researched countless ATS solutions by following buying patterns and talking with HR professionals and recruiters. I've found that many people struggle with what to look for in an ATS and how to best utilize existing ones. As TheATSGuy, I blog on what I've learned."
