Knowing is half the battle.

Open Applicant is a powerful Applicant Tracking and Candidate Assessment tool available to the public. Through our developer community, Open Applicant is able to bring a wide variety of features and capabilities to Human Resource Professionals and Hiring Managers to make the recruiting and hiring process easy and effective.

I can do it myself.

With a little time and effort you can have Open Applicant downloaded and running in your own environment by the time you make your next hire! You'll need a Tomcat application server and a MySql database, and of course, the free download of Open Applicant.

What the heck is a war file?

Since you might have better things to worry about than downloading, installing, and hosting a web application, we've put together a low-cost, hosted version of Open Applicant just for people like you. For as little as $10/month, you can be up and running in no time!

We're here to help.

Whether you need help installing, customizing, benchmarking, training, or integrating Open Applicant into your enterprise, our expert support and development team are here to help! We wish we could do it for free, but unfortunately payrolls don't pay themselves. But we can work with you and your budget to deliver enterprise quality support tailored specifically to your needs.

Take a look under the hood.

Open Applicant was originally developed by Originate Labs and is now open source. We welcome the development community to view, comment, and contribute the future of source code. There is plenty of work to do, so definitely jump in and help.

Open Applicant is free to download, install, and use on your own. It is also immediately available through our hosted service for a nominal fee (to cover hosting costs) with zero setup. And for those interested, Open Applicant also provides enterprise level support, customization, and other services.
