Managing applicants instead of a spreadsheet and an email inbox

At first a spreadsheet and an inbox are enough. Then comes the second job ad, the third colleague, and nobody knows for sure who has had an answer. The applicant keeps waiting, and the employer spends hours searching.

When is Excel no longer enough?

  • One job ad brings so many applications that they get lost in the inbox.
  • You are not sure who has already had an answer and who is still waiting.
  • Colleagues search their own inboxes for forwarded CVs.
  • Several jobs are open at the same time, and the spreadsheet columns no longer match reality.

What does HRAtan offer instead of the spreadsheet?

  • One place for every applicant: people who apply on the public job page arrive automatically, and you upload CVs from email or job boards into the same list.
  • Visible status: who is on the shortlist, who was rejected, who was forwarded; decisions can be undone.
  • An AI profile from every CV, so different formats become comparable.
  • Forwarding by link, without attachments: the decision maker does not have to search their inbox.
  • Activity log: who made which decision and when.

Data protection compared with a spreadsheet

A spreadsheet often lives on in copies that nobody deletes. In HRAtan the retention period is set in days, and expired data is deleted automatically together with the CV. The database is in the EU, in Frankfurt. This is information, not legal advice.

How to get started

Sign up, create your first job and put the public page link where you already advertise. New applicants then arrive in HRAtan; you can upload the CVs of applicants already in progress. No installation is needed, it runs in the browser, and no card is needed for the trial.

Frequently asked questions

Can I bring over my existing applicants?

You can upload the CVs of applicants already in progress into the same list. Bulk import from a spreadsheet is not offered at the moment.

Do I need IT skills?

No. HRAtan runs in the browser and can be used right after signing up.

What does it cost?

The trial is free and needs no card; current prices are on the Pricing and plans page.
