ATS migration workflow

Move from old ATS data to a working recruitment desk

Use ATZ CRM migration planning to connect candidate, client, job, activity, pipeline, submission, and placement data to the workflows recruiters need after go-live.

01

Assess the current ATS export

Review source system access, export formats, record counts, attachments, active jobs, and any limits in the old platform.

02

Decide what should move

Separate useful candidate, client, job, note, submission, and placement history from stale records that should be cleaned first.

03

Map stages and custom fields

Translate old statuses, owner fields, tags, sources, and custom fields into ATZ CRM pipeline and record structure.

04

Review a sample import

Check candidate records, client contacts, jobs, notes, attachments, and stage movement before approving the full move.

05

Run the final move and delta check

Plan the final export, capture new records or updates, and confirm what changed between sample review and go-live.

06

Validate the live recruiting desk

Have recruiters inspect active roles, submissions, follow-ups, reporting views, and search before ATZ CRM becomes the daily workspace.

Keep live desk context visible

Migration is successful when recruiters can use the data, not just see it

Candidate history, client context, jobs, submissions, notes, attachments, and stages should land where recruiters can search, review, follow up, and report without rebuilding the desk manually.

Current pressure

Your old ATS is holding useful history hostage

Slow, expensive, poorly adopted, or fragmented systems still contain candidate notes, client conversations, job history, and placement context your team relies on.

Keep useful history without carrying every bad habit forward.

Desk risk

Active jobs cannot disappear during the move

Open roles, callbacks, submissions, interviews, feedback, and follow-ups need a clear go-live plan before recruiters switch workspaces.

Plan migration around the desk work already in motion.

Bring the details that decide migration scope

A useful migration plan starts with the real shape of your recruitment desk: records, fields, stages, attachments, active jobs, and validation owners.

Walk through the workflow

Current ATS and export access

Confirm the source system, export format, API or file access, attachments, and any timing limits from the current provider.

Candidate records and resumes

Review candidate profiles, CVs, source history, ownership, tags, skills, notes, and recent communication activity.

Companies, contacts, jobs, and submissions

Keep client companies, hiring contacts, open jobs, submitted candidates, feedback, and placement context connected.

Notes, activity, attachments, and custom fields

Identify the history recruiters need daily and the fields that should be cleaned, merged, renamed, or left behind.

Stage mapping and pipeline cleanup

Map old statuses into ATZ CRM stages so recruiters can trust candidate movement after sample review.

Go-live timing and validation owners

Assign who checks sample records, who approves final migration, and when the desk changes systems.

ATZ CRM is a strong fit when you need

  • You are moving from an existing recruitment ATS into ATZ CRM.
  • Your recruiters rely on old candidate notes, source history, stage movement, and job context.
  • You need client, company, contact, submission, and placement data close to candidate delivery.
  • You want a sample import and validation flow before final go-live.
  • You need reporting continuity for source, activity, pipeline, placement, and team performance where historic data supports it.

You may also need specialist tools for

  • Migration scope depends on the source ATS export, record condition, attachments, field structure, and approved mapping.
  • Specialist payroll, tax, accounting, background-check, coding-assessment, VMS, onboarding, and statutory compliance tools may still be needed outside ATZ CRM.
  • Recruiters and agency leaders remain responsible for validating records, communication permissions, hiring decisions, and final use of migrated data.
  • Every custom field, attachment, message, integration, or historic activity may not always move exactly as it appears in the old system.

ATZ CRM supports ATS + CRM migration planning, import, validation, and recruiting workflow setup. Your team remains responsible for data review, privacy decisions, legal guidance, communication permissions, and final approval before the new workspace becomes the system of record.

FAQ

Recruitment ATS Migration FAQs

Can ATZ CRM migrate data from our existing recruitment ATS?

Yes. ATZ CRM can support recruitment ATS migration planning and data movement from exported source data. Scope depends on your current ATS, available export formats, record condition, attachments, and approved mapping.

What recruitment data can usually be moved into ATZ CRM?

A migration plan can review candidate records, resumes or CVs, companies, contacts, jobs, notes, activities, attachments, pipeline stages, submissions, placements, and custom fields. The final scope depends on what your old system can export and what your team approves.

Will our candidate notes, jobs, and attachments come across?

They can be included in the migration review when the source export contains them in a usable format. The safest approach is to validate a sample before the full move so recruiters can check notes, jobs, attachments, stages, and record relationships.

How do we map old ATS stages into ATZ CRM?

Your team should review the old statuses, decide which stages still matter, and map them into ATZ CRM pipeline stages before approving the migration. This avoids bringing messy or unused stages into the new workspace.

Can recruiters keep working while the migration is happening?

The migration plan should account for active jobs, callbacks, submissions, interviews, feedback, and follow-ups. ATZ CRM can help plan sample review, final export, delta checks, and go-live timing so the team knows where to work during the change.

What should we clean before moving data from the old ATS?

Review duplicate candidates, outdated contacts, inactive jobs, unused custom fields, stale talent pools, old tags, missing owners, and records that no longer support your recruitment process or data retention requirements.

How long does a recruitment ATS migration take?

Timeline depends on database size, source-system access, attachment volume, field complexity, sample review speed, and final approval timing. The demo should clarify the likely phases for your current ATS and team.

Do we need managed migration or can we import files ourselves?

Focused files may be suitable for structured import. Larger databases with candidates, clients, jobs, notes, attachments, and stage history usually need a managed migration plan so mapping and validation are handled carefully.

What happens to duplicate candidates and inactive records?

They should be reviewed before full migration. Some records may be merged, cleaned, filtered, or left behind depending on your data quality, retention needs, and how your recruiters use the database.

How should we review candidate data privacy before migration?

Recruitment data can include personal and sensitive information. Review retention needs, access permissions, consent or communication preferences, and regional obligations with the right internal or legal owners before approving the move.
