If they have a new vacancy to fill, I’ll offer to walk hiring managers through it. Most of them will say, ‘No, it’s really easy and self-explanatory.’ I think that is such a positive aspect of Pinpoint—it is really user-friendly.
One of the biggest things is it’s a very modern, very clean platform.

ATS FAQs for manufacturing
Is Pinpoint suitable for high-volume manufacturing hiring?
Yes. Pinpoint supports high-volume hiring with customizable workflows, automation, bulk actions, and easy collaboration with hiring managers. You can streamline screening, schedule interviews automatically, and keep visibility across multiple open roles without adding admin overhead.
Can we use Pinpoint for both shop floor and salaried roles?
Absolutely. Many manufacturing teams hire for operators, technicians, engineers, supply chain roles, and corporate positions at the same time. Pinpoint allows you to create tailored workflows, templates, and permissions for different role types, while keeping everything in one system.
What if our candidates don’t have CVs or LinkedIn profiles?
No problem. Pinpoint supports mobile-first, login-free applications and customizable forms, so candidates can apply quickly, even without a traditional CV. You can also use QR codes for physical job ads and track employee referrals easily.
How do manufacturing companies standardize hiring across multiple sites?
Manufacturing companies standardize hiring by using a centralized ATS like Pinpoint, with location-specific workflows and role-based permissions. This allows headquarters to maintain process consistency, reporting visibility, and compliance controls, while individual plants or regions adapt workflows to local hiring needs.
What compliance and security features should a manufacturing ATS have?
A manufacturing ATS should include role-based access controls, configurable data retention policies, audit logs, and enterprise-grade security certifications such as ISO 27001 and SOC 2 Type II. These features help manufacturers protect sensitive candidate data and meet regional regulatory requirements.
