I have recently started a new role, my first where "recruitment" is one of my responsibilities. The company is very "paper based" but is gradually making some technology and paperless moves in certain areas. 

Unfortunately, at this time, this does not include any kind of ATS. Instead, they currently use EXCEL, and even they admit that it is a little "messy". Does anyone have any "best practices" or examples of layouts using excel as an ATS?

This would be very helpful and allow me to try and keep our recruiting efforts more organized.

Thank you.
