The Best Free ATS system for start-up recruiters.

Starting a Recruitment Agency is tough, which is why we're giving you a free applicant tracking system to get your business moving.

Unlimited Data & Tracking

Most "Free" systems claim to be free but are actually just a free trial. With Giig you get a truly free ATS that is 'Free Forever' and allows you to track unlimited Candidates, Contacts, Companies & Jobs.

Your Business Your Rules

Legacy systems force you to use their rigid, irrelevant industry lists. We give you a blank canvas. Build your own custom tagging matrix to track niche skills, immediate availability, or hot prospects. Organise your ATS system exactly how your brain works.

Create Relevant Shortlists

Tagging candidates is pointless if you can't find them when a job drops. Forget wrestling with clunky Boolean strings that crash your screen. Layer your custom tags to instantly pull up a targeted shortlist in one click.

Stats Dashboard

Your ATS should tell you exactly where your business stands. Giig's free ats for recruiters comes with a Stats Dashboard that gives you an overview of your recruitment pipeline. With one glance, you can track exactly how many candidates you have shortlisted, submitted, and interviewed. Crucially, it tracks your final hires and top-line sales, giving you instant clarity on your cash flow.

The Truth About 'Free' ATS Systems

Most legacy software providers offer a “free” applicant tracking system that is practically useless. They cap your candidate limits, block essential features, and hold your data hostage so that you are forced into upgrading to a massive enterprise contract. Giig is built differently. We engineered our Free Forever tier specifically for the risk takers stepping out on their own. You get unlimited candidates, unlimited jobs, and unlimited CVs. Your data is your data, and you can use the system for as long as you need to. 

Drag-And-Drop Pipelines

Running a busy desk off an Excel document is a guaranteed way to lose track of candidates and leave cash on the table.

We built our free ATS to include a slick, Kanban-style board that gives you an instant visual snapshot of exactly where every single person is sitting in your process. Instead of fighting through rows of confusing data to figure out who needs feedback, you simply click, drag, and drop them from “Submitted” to “Hired”.

You won’t find another free applicant tracking system with a feature like this.

Custom Candidate Tagging

Stashing your candidates in an Excel spreadsheet just creates a massive, dead list of names that you can do absolutely nothing with when you land a new role.

The Giig Free ATS gives you a complete blank canvas to build your own custom tagging matrix instead. Categorise your talent pool exactly how your brain works.

Whether that is by niche skill, availability, or salary requirement. When it is time to hunt, simply run a search against your custom tags  and pull up a targeted shortlist in one click.

Frequently Asked Questions About The Free ATS

Here’s some bits you might want to know! 

Q: Is the Giig Applicant Tracking System actually free?
A: Yes. Unlike some platforms that limit your usage, our Free Forever plan is designed to help start-up recruiters build their business without overhead. It allows you to track unlimited candidates, clients, and jobs. You don’t even need a credit card to sign up.

Q: What is the difference between an ATS and a CRM?
A: An Applicant Tracking System (ATS) manages the candidate journey tracking CVs, interviews, and placements. A Recruitment CRM (Customer Relationship Management) focuses on business development and client relationships. Giig combines both into one unified platform, so you don’t have to pay for two separate pieces of software.

Q: Can I export my data if I decide to leave?
A: Absolutely. We strongly believe that your data belongs to you. Even on the free tier, you have full flexibility to export your candidate and client lists whenever you want. We rely on the quality of our software to keep you around, not restrictive contracts.
