Zoho Recruit offers several default modules for recruitment activities including Job Openings, Candidates, and Interviews. These modules have predefined business logic, including page layout, reports, and workflow automation, which feature limited customization and may not meet all your requirements. You may require modules that are unique to your organization to meet all your needs and accommodate all your business processes, to store data that is relevant to your business and which are linked with the other standard modules in your account.
You can create your own modules to address your recruitment requirements using the Custom Modules functionality in Zoho Recruit, you can develop new modules using built-in tools that do not require you to have any programming skills.
