Texts, emails, five different job boards — if that's where your candidates live, you're not tracking hiring. You're chasing it. CareerPlug's applicant tracking system puts every applicant in one place, so you always know who's next.
Helping 60,000+ franchise businesses grow winning teams
The Cost of Guessing
A resume in your inbox. A text you meant to answer. A callback you made a day too late, while someone else already made an offer. It's not that good candidates aren't out there. It's that nobody's tracking where they went.
Your best applicants disappear into the noise
Nobody can tell you who's stuck, or where
You're guessing at "the right fit" instead of knowing

Why CareerPlug?
Most franchisees aren't HR professionals, and they shouldn't have to become one just to run an applicant tracking system. When you sign on with CareerPlug, a Hiring Expert trains you one-on-one, walks you through your account, and gives you guides written in plain language instead of technical jargon. If something trips you up next month, that same expert is still the person you call.
A job board, like Indeed or Ziprecruiter, gets you candidates, and a generic ATS hiring platform gets you a workflow. CareerPlug gets you both, plus a team that's already solved this exact problem for 400+ franchise brands.
FAQs
An applicant tracking system, sometimes called recruiting software, keeps every job, applicant, and interview in one place instead of scattered across five different tools. It's what stops good candidates from slipping through the cracks.
Even a few hires a year is enough to lose a great candidate to a slow follow-up. An applicant tracking system isn't about volume — it's about not losing the two or three people who actually mattered because they got buried in a text thread.
Pricing depends on your team size and number of locations — book a demo and we'll give you a real number, not a "contact sales" runaround. No surprise charges for job board postings, added users, or extra locations; it's built into your plan from day one.
Most businesses post their first job within 48 hours of signing up. A Hiring Expert walks you through setup one-on-one, so you're not learning a new system alone — and if your managers get stuck later, that same expert is a call away, not a support-ticket queue.

Yes. CareerPlug gives franchisors a rolled-up view across every location, while each franchisee manages their own jobs and candidates independently — one system, without losing local control.
