What changed
What this update changes
ATZ CRM added a centralized Tags Library in June 2026. Instead of every recruiter creating slightly different labels, teams can manage tags from one place and keep naming more consistent.
Tags are useful when recruiters need flexible labels for skills, campaigns, priority groups, client categories, sourcing sources, or follow-up themes.
A central library gives teams a better foundation for filtering, reporting, cleanup, and shared workflows.
Why it matters
Why it matters to recruiters
Recruiters are often measured on speed, quality, and follow-through. This update is designed to reduce manual work, protect useful context, and help teams keep hiring activity moving with fewer handoffs.
Better team alignment
A shared library helps teammates understand what each tag means and how it should be used.
Easier cleanup
Admins can reduce duplicate tags and keep the tag system useful as the database grows.

How recruiters use it
How the workflow works
The exact setup depends on your workspace and permissions, but the core workflow is built to keep recruiters closer to the record, the next action, and the right team context.

Audit existing tags
Review which tags the team already uses for candidates, clients, campaigns, and workflows.
2
Create standard labels
Build tags that are clear, reusable, and easy for recruiters to understand.
3
Apply tags during daily work
Use tags when sourcing, importing, reviewing, or segmenting records.
4
Clean up over time
Merge habits around preferred tags and remove unnecessary variations when possible.
Feature-specific details
Extra context for this update
Some releases affect more than one recruiting workflow. These notes explain the practical details recruiters, admins, or managers may want to review before rolling the update out to the team.
Data hygiene
A practical tagging approach for recruiting teams
Tags work best when the team agrees on clear labels before everyone starts creating their own variations.
- Use tags for flexible context such as campaign source, niche skill group, availability theme, priority pool, or client-specific shortlist status.
- Avoid creating multiple tags with the same meaning, such as “Java Dev,” “Java Developer,” and “Java Engineer,” unless your team has a clear distinction.
- Review the library regularly after imports, sourcing projects, and outreach campaigns so the tag list stays useful instead of noisy.

Quick answers
Common questions
What is the Tags Library?
It is a centralized place to create and manage tags so teams can organize records with more consistent labels.
Why does tag consistency matter?
Consistent tags make filtering, segmentation, cleanup, and handoffs easier across the recruiting team.
Are tags the same as folders?
No. Folders group records into working lists, while tags label records with flexible attributes or themes.
Who should manage the Tags Library?
Usually admins, operations leads, or senior recruiters should manage the library so tags stay consistent across teams.
Can tags help after a bulk import?
Yes. Tags are useful for marking imported records by campaign, source, event, niche, or cleanup status after a large upload.
How many tags should a team create?
Create only tags that recruiters will actually use for filtering, follow-up, segmentation, or reporting. A smaller clean library is better than a large confusing one.
