Download a populated XLSX tracker for a small hiring cohort, then move to the connected Jodoo ATS when interviews, permissions, reminders and audit history outgrow one file.
The workbook gives one team a clean starting point: one register, controlled lists, decision-ready formulas and a summary dashboard. Move to an ATS when multiple roles need governed access and connected records.
The workbook uses English sheet labels and sample data. Formulas, dropdowns and dashboard measures stay visible while you replace the examples with your own candidates.
One row per candidate and role application
Controlled values for consistent filtering
Live counts and follow-up indicators
Safe setup and operating notes
A stage describes where the candidate is. It does not replace the person accountable for the next step or the date by which it should happen.

Record terms, response and start or close reasonAccepted, declined, withdrawn or rejectedA spreadsheet is a useful starting tool, not a badge of maturity or a failure. Move when the operating risk becomes larger than the convenience.
The connected ATS is available when the process grows.
The downloadable workbook may be sufficient for the current job.
Use forms, permissions, workflow and source-linked dashboards.
A shared workbook is no longer a safe system of record.
Use the Jodoo workflow alongside the recruiting service the team selects.
Choose a specialist ATS when these capabilities need to be built into the core product.
Include candidate, role, source, stage, owner, priority, applied date, next action, due date, interview status and final disposition. Keep stage, owner and next action separate.
Yes. The workbook contains representative candidates, controlled dropdown lists, formulas and dashboard measures so the operating logic is visible before you add your own records.
Move when multiple roles need different access, one candidate relates to several jobs, reminders and approvals matter, or managers need dashboards that open the source record.
The workbook is organized as a clean register that can support migration planning. Confirm field mapping, privacy, duplicates and related-record design before importing live candidate data.
Use Jodoo when the team needs requisitions, applications, interview evidence, offers, permissions, reminders and dashboards to work as one system.
