Candidate data comes from too many sources to stay tidy

Job boards, referrals, spreadsheets from hiring managers, and ATS exports all end up in the same tab. Duplicate people and inconsistent formatting are the normal state, not the exception.

  • The same candidate from two sources under two spellings
  • Emails with trailing spaces that break outreach tools
  • Start dates and interview dates stored as text
  • Exports with merged header rows

What CTS Guard checks

  • Near duplicate people, not just identical rows
  • Email and name formatting inconsistencies
  • Dates stored as text or mixed formats
  • Whitespace inside cells
  • Empty rows and columns
  • Structural issues that block an ATS or HRIS import

How it works inside Google Sheets™

  1. 1Open your sheet in Google Sheets™ and launch CTS Guard from the Extensions menu.
  2. 2Run a check. Guard scans the tab and shows what looks off, before anything changes.
  3. 3Apply the fixes you want. Your original values stay in the sheet until you approve a change.

Sheets recruiting and hr teams already have

  • Candidate pipelines

    Duplicate applicants across sources and referral sheets.

  • Onboarding trackers

    Start dates as text, inconsistent department naming.

  • Roster and headcount exports

    Spacer rows and totals mixed into the data.

  • Interview scheduling sheets

    Date formats that do not sort correctly.

Safe to send

Reduce the chance of contacting the same candidate twice or sharing a sheet with obvious duplicates.

Import ready

Check the sheet before it is loaded into an ATS, HRIS, or payroll import template.

The FAQ

Google Workspace Marketplace™ Review

We've found this tool to be a great fit for the kind of spreadsheet work we do at Lombard Toyota. It helps turn large, messy data exports into something much easier to read and work with, without requiring a lot of manual cleanup.

What we especially like is that it seems to understand the structure of dealership data instead of treating every column the same. That saves time and makes the finished spreadsheets much more useful for our day-to-day work.

Definitely a helpful tool for an automotive dealership working with a lot of data.
