Does Perfect have its own applicant tracking system?
Yes. Perfect has a built-in ATS with per-position Kanban boards, a global pipeline, a company-wide candidate database, custom fields and candidate profiles with application history. You do not need an external ATS to use these native tracking capabilities.
What is the difference between the pipeline and the candidate CRM?
The pipeline organizes applications by position and stage. The candidate database brings together the people your company has engaged, with searchable records, custom fields and touchpoint history. The two views connect application progress with candidate context.
Which pipeline stages update automatically?
When Perfect outreach sends a message to a candidate, the card advances to Contacted. When the candidate replies, it advances to Replied. Your team can also move cards manually and mark candidates Hired or Rejected.
Can I see candidates across all positions?
Yes. The global pipeline shows applications across positions, while the company-wide Candidates page provides a searchable database of the candidates your team has engaged.
Can I add custom fields to candidate records?
Yes. Perfect’s company-wide candidates table supports custom fields defined by your team.
Can Perfect work with an ATS we already use?
Perfect supports external ATS connections as well as its native ATS. The available capabilities depend on the connector and configuration. Confirm your system and required data flow rather than assuming every integration supports the same fields, triggers or sync behavior.
