CATS is applicant tracking software for recruiters and staffing agencies.
See every integration →Candidate and new hire name, personal email, mobile number, job, department, location, hiring manager, recruiter, offer and start dates, application stage and your custom fields.
You pick the fields that sync and whether the connection is read-only or also writes approved fields back to CATS. Sensitive fields report coverage only, never values, when your team asks an AI assistant about them.
Editors only see what their role allows, and every change is logged.
When something changes in your system of record, the right people hear about it on the right channel. Nobody on the People team presses send.
When a placement is made in CATS, the worker gets onboarding for that assignment by email or text.
The new starter gets their first-week plan, and their manager gets a prep checklist.
Workers coming off assignment get a heads-up and what to expect next.
The team hears who is joining and when, in a welcome note you approve first.
Hiring managers get a short guide to the process and their part in a great first week.
The hire is handed to onboarding, so the same journey carries on into day one.
Start the welcome from CATS the moment an offer is accepted, so new hires feel part of the team before they arrive.

Most new hires go quiet between signing and starting. With CATS connected, ChangeEngine fills that gap with a welcome, what to expect and who to meet, then hands them to onboarding when your HRIS record is ready.
Placed workers and contractors get onboarding and updates for their assignment, and your internal recruiters get the news that matters to their desk.
Most teams start read-only. If you want ChangeEngine to send data back to CATS, you approve write access for specific fields, every change is logged, and you can switch it off at any time.
Your services team runs the setup with IT. When you need something that is not in the box, your forward deployed engineer builds it.
Meet the forward deployed engineer →Your CATS admin approves access for ChangeEngine, read-only or read and write. We send the exact permission checklist ahead of the call, so IT knows what it is signing off on.
On a working call, we map the CATS fields you want to use: job, department, location, hiring manager and start date. You choose what comes across and what stays in CATS.
