Applicant tracking systems pricing
Applicant tracking systems disagree on what to charge for: some price per recruiter seat, some per open job slot, some by company headcount and some only by quote. The published prices run from under 20 dollars a seat to several hundred dollars a month for a small company, and the enterprise vendors publish nothing at all.
