— A Story from the Team Behind the Product

When we first began building HrClerks ATS, the goal wasn’t just to launch another SaaS product — it was to solve a problem we faced every day at EWN Bangladesh Limited, our own software development company.

As a growing team constantly juggling active projects and tight delivery timelines, hiring the right people quickly (and without breaking process) was a challenge. We had job applications coming in through LinkedIn, email, and personal networks — and no real system to manage it all.

So, we decided to fix it — for ourselves first.

How at EWN We Streamlined Our Hiring with HrClerks ATS

🎯 Why We Built It (and Needed It)

At EWN, we needed something that could:

• Centralize all applications in one place
• Allow us to screen and shortlist faster
• Help multiple team members collaborate on hiring without creating chaos
• Build a reusable database of great candidates
• Be lightweight and simple enough for startups like ours

We couldn’t find a tool that truly aligned with our workflow. Either it was too bloated, too expensive, or too focused on large HR departments. So, we built HrClerks.

⚙️ How We Use HrClerks at EWN

Here's how the platform fits into our daily hiring operations:

✅ Structured Screening Built-In

Every job post includes carefully crafted screening questions. This alone saved us hours per role — no more reading irrelevant resumes.

🧠 Talent Pool That Actually Works

We no longer lose track of great candidates. If someone isn’t a fit right now, they’re one click away from being added to our Talent Pool for future roles.

👥 Role-Based Team Access

Our hiring team includes the MD (me), a project manager, and a team lead — all with different levels of access and focus. HrClerks lets us collaborate without stepping on each other’s toes.

📈 Built for Clarity, Not Clutter

We see the full picture of each hiring process. No more asking, “Did anyone follow up with that candidate?” Everything is visible and logged.

🌐 Dedicated Career Page

We embedded our branded career page right on our website. It's clean, minimal, and takes minutes to set up.

💡 What We Learned by Using Our Own Product

Building a product is one thing. Using it in production daily is another. By using HrClerks ourselves, we:

• Identified bottlenecks in real workflows
• Improved the UI to reduce unnecessary steps
• Made sure features were simple, useful, and startup-friendly
• Prioritized performance — because no one wants to wait for their ATS to load

HrClerks has become an essential part of our hiring toolkit. It’s not perfect yet, but it’s real, battle-tested, and constantly improving — because we use it just like our users do.

🚀 What’s Next

We’re currently working on:

• AI-powered resume ranking
• Job description generator
• Task and interview coordination tools

Every feature we plan is driven by something we’ve experienced firsthand while hiring at EWN.

🧭 Final Thoughts

Building HrClerks has made us better at hiring — not just as a product team, but as a company.

If you're running a startup or a lean team and hiring feels more chaotic than it should — give HrClerks a try. We built it for ourselves, and we’re pretty sure it’ll work for you too.
