How our tech is disrupting the industry
Smarter Integrations
The best ATS integrations you can find
Yardstik integrates smoothly with your ATS and HCM tools to keep you and your candidates in your workflow—eliminating extra clicks, duplicate data entry, and the endless browser tab shuffle. We partner with actual customers to build these integrations, so they fit your real needs. Get ready for special features that make hiring decisions easier for your teams and applications and onboarding easier for your candidates.
Sequential Screening
Customizable workflows that save you time and money
Yardstik’s Sequential Screening technology lets you screen only the candidates who meet your requirements. If a candidate doesn’t pass the first check, you won’t pay for the rest. Most providers force you into an all-or-nothing workflow—so you pay for unnecessary screens. Not here. Bundle a handful of screens like national criminal, county criminal, motor vehicle checks, drug screens, and more with a custom workflow that makes sense for your business, increasing speed and decreasing cost.
Data & Analytics Dashboard
Real-time hiring data no one else gives you
What if you had full and real-time access to your hiring funnel and spend? We know that’s important, so that’s exactly what we built. In Yardstik’s Data & Analytics Dashboard, available right in the platform when you log in, are metrics like conversion rate, hirable rate, most hirable by state, and cost per candidate. It’s the kind of data that drives speed, savings, and accuracy for your screening program.
Robust API
Build a custom integration with fewer dev resources
Most legacy screening APIs are clunky, slow, and a nightmare to implement. Ours isn’t. It’s built for speed and flexibility—so your dev team can integrate faster, with less effort. You’re looking at weeks, not months to get started and our team is here every step of the way to get you set up and reducing all unnecessary screens.
