Abstract

A method for tracking referrals using a third party applicant tracking system (ATS). The method include receiving a request to display a web page at a URL from a client used by a job candidate, where the URL is associated with a job at a company and the job candidate. The method further includes providing to the client a web page associated with the URL that includes a description of the job and a link to an ATS, receiving a request for a web page corresponding to the job, where the request is initiated by selection of the link. The method further includes making a determination that the ATS is a third party ATS and, in response, generating a third party referral URL, a unique identifier associated with the job, and an identifier associated with a source type, and providing the third party referral URL to the client.
