Newton Software is a company that designs and develops a software as a service (SaaS) applicant tracking system targeted towards small and medium-sized employers.
Newton Software was founded in San Francisco, California in 2009 by former recruiting professionals, Joel Passen and Steve Hazelton. After working in corporate recruiting programs for over 10 years, the two set out to improve how employers manage their recruiting processes by offering cloud-based software that provides better tools for recruiters and hiring managers to make decisions and collaborate.
As of 2013, Newton has several hundred customers, primarily small and medium sized employers with between 30-3000 employees.
Newton was one of the first applicant tracking vendors to launch a native tablet application in September 2012, Newton Touch, which enables employers to check on job applicants from their iPad or Android tablet devices.
Newton also distinguishes itself on providing employers with a real-time recruiting performance dashboard that breaks down all conversion rates in each part of the hiring process, as well as the time it takes to move candidates through each stage of hiring.
