Why Recruitment Automation Matters
Hiring the right people quickly is crucial for business growth. But manual hiring processes are slow, disorganized, and prone to mistakes. Odoo 18 Recruitment helps you structure your hiring process, track every applicant, collaborate easily with managers, and make smarter hiring decisions — faster and more efficiently.

- Publish openings directly on your Odoo website career page
- Share openings via social media or external job boards
- Accept applications online with easy form submissions
All candidate applications are funneled straight into your Applicant Tracking System (ATS) automatically.
Applicant Tracking and Pipelines
