NIXZ Jobs links your job sources with OTYS. This way the vacancies automatically enter your system. No more checking job websites or monitoring an inbox full of jobs, but all vacancies in the central recruitment system, your ATS.

NIXZ Jobs retrieves all relevant job information from Dynamic Acquisition Systems (such as Mercell, Poolz or SalesForce) or job sites (such as Circle8, Magnit or LinkedIn) and puts it according to your ATS.

Benefits of NIXZ Jobs

During conversations with our users, we've noticed that most candidate interviews take place using tools such as Teams, Zoom, Google Meet, or Indeed Interview. Many of our customer’s beautifully decorated meeting rooms are now either unused or repurposed as spacious Video Interview rooms.

At OTYS, we're addressing this by introducing new and improved tools for scheduling and conducting video interviews.

Over the next few months, we will be introducing several new tools to make this easier and faster. Interview planning will become easier and will be seamlessly integrated with your Outlook or Google calendar, a significant improvement over the current available integrations.

This feature will be available for free across all editions of new OTYS Go! 

If you're still using an older version of OTYS, please contact OTYS Customer Success to explore the possibilities of acquiring a new version.

BTW ‘The new planner will only work with the scheduling features of M365 or Google calendars and sadly not with the OTYS native calendar. Connecting the native OTYS calendar with your Outlook or Google calendar is easy and the connectors are free to use. Check the FAQ in your OTYS account on how to setup the connection’.

The use of ChatGPT within recruitment is widespread. Many of OTYS’ competitors have added integrations with ChatGPT and offer an AI assisted vacancy editor. In OTYS this feature has been available for a few months now via partners such as Cortexter and Textmetrics.

Of course we have been busy integrating AI tools ourselves, but we have decided to do this in full compliance with GDPR.

So, we did not integrate ChatGPT, but we have integrated OTYS with GPT. We have our own GPT server located in Amsterdam. This also means that all your data remains in our care and that it stays within the EU as well. There is no possibility that data shared via OTYS-GPT will be shared openly, as might be the case when you use ChatGPT.

 We have also chosen not to only build the 'next' vacancy writer feature, but we have integrated OTYS-GPT in each screen of new version of OTYS Go!

You’ll find the assistant in your vacancy modules as well as in the email, in the candidate screens, CRM, placements etc. For instance, if you want to propose a CV to your client OTYS-GPT can help in writing an introduction for your candidate from the screen you are using now as well.

In each text editor widget or screen in new OTYS Go! you’ll see the OpenAI logo, indicating OTYS-GPT is available for you. We have made options available for summarizing, translating and beautifying texts. And next to the prompts OTYS engineers have created you can also use your own prompts if you want.

The OTYS-GPT screen will be rolled out in the following months and available in all editions of OTYS Go!  If you're still using an older version of OTYS, please contact OTYS Customer Success to explore the possibilities of acquiring the new version.

A typical day for a recruiter doesn't always go as planned. People can be unpredictable, and job applicants are no exception. This means recruiters working in an ATS such as OTYS Go! often must switch between various screens. OTYS Go! has had a Quick Search function for many years. But as things go the old Quick Search was really getting ‘old’ or maybe becoming a bit ‘obsolete’, depending on which customer we asked.

Improving the Quick Search function in OTYS ranked very high on the wish-list of many recruiters using OTYS Go! Therefore, I am delighted to announce that a completely revamped Quick Search is live as of last week in the new version of OTYS Go!

The new Quick Search will allow you to start a search from every screen and find the right candidate, contact person, or job vacancy by just typing a few characters in the search bar. 

Once you have selected the correct candidate, contact, vacancy or customer file you can use the new Quick Actions menu to create a note, reminder, task, etc. without actually leaving the screen where you were working when you started the search.

This feature is available for free across all editions of new OTYS Go!

If you're still using an older version of OTYS, please contact OTYS Customer Success to explore the possibilities of acquiring a new version.

BTW ‘The Quick Action menu introduced in the Quick Search will be added in many new or improved functions in new OTYS Go!

Many of you will probably recognize that working as a recruiter means getting ‘disturbed’ during work continuously. At least, that is often the nature of the game. Recruiters are dealing with people, and people are fickle. This means Recruiters must switch between files while unfinished tasks linger in their memory.

OTYS is introducing the new functionality OTYS history. This feature automatically keeps track of the screens and functions you have used throughout the day, allowing easy navigation back to the relevant vacancies, candidates, customers, and more.

This brand-new daily history feature goes even further and tracks also what you have been working on. Maybe you were working on creating a note or a CV for a candidate. Or perhaps you're taking a call from a customer and need to access the file of that customer. All these actions are recorded by your personal OTYS memory. When you deal with a customer request you can quickly go back from the customer’s file to that specific note in the candidate’s file. At the end of the day your personal OTYS memory is wiped so you can start with a clean slate the next morning.

When we introduced the daily history to a small group of customers for testing, we quickly learned that recruiters access many many files per day. Adding a search option was the main feedback from the recruiters that have used it. And that is what we have done, the daily history function can be found in every screen in the new version of OTYS Go!

This feature is available for free across all editions of new OTYS Go!.

One more tip. In OTYS Go! it is possible to open multiple screens and thus keep track of what you are working on. Although this is a great feature of OTYS Go!, it can however slow down your laptop when you keep many many screens active for the whole day. The history function reduces the need to have multiple screens open, on average 3 to 4 screens seems to be enough based on user feedback. Therefore using the daily history will not only allows you to navigate easier and faster but it will also ensure that your PC itself stays fast during your working day!

We are proud to announce that we will roll out a new version of OTYS Go! with a new UX design, color scheme and improved quick access menu.

The new version of OTYS Go! is more modern and prepared for a dark mode that will be introduced at a later stage as well.

There are many small and large improvements. This new version allows us to introduce new functionalities such as the Quick Search, Instant Match and Daily History functions but also makes the application easier to navigate due to the use of a consistent color scheme.

Although the current OTYS Go! does have a lot of color, it did not have specific colors for each module separately. This can cause confusion, especially for new users. In the new version, each module will have a specific color that will be used in the menu, dashboard, list screen and detail screens. This way it is easy to see where you are at any time.

The new version of OTYS Go! has been thoroughly tested by more than 1500 users during the last 6 months. Starting September 1st it will be available for every user. If you want to use it earlier, please let us know. To make the transition smoothly users can switch back and forth between the current ‘old’ version and the new version of OTYS Go!. When everybody is used to this new version the old version will be switched off for good.

The new version will be available for free across all editions of OTYS Go!
