Simplifies the process
We enjoy the features of the service and the customer service is top notch. We have a steady stream of qualified applicants for each position. It's been a good service for us.
Pros
The visual presentation of our Careers page is very professional, and the 'text to apply' feature makes it easy to get potential recruits to the Careers page even when I'm out and about.
Cons
In the early days of using the service, there were many tasks that required contacting support. The numbers of these are decreasing as they iterate and it has become very user friendly.

Thunder Pies Hiring
We have used the platform on and off again for the past few years. We do not intend to leave again. The response on HIgherMe has been the absolute best in the industry. We have many times more applicants to work with than all other platforms combined!
Pros
The integration of the hiring platform was exceptionally fast and accurate
Cons
Nothing comes to mind. I had some issues with the HR platform that we initially wanted but we have since decided to not use it.
Reasons for switching to HigherMe
We needed results

Response from HigherMe Software
Thank you so much! We are glad that you have decided to stay and look forward to continuing to help you move people forward while earning your business for a long time to come!

Multi-unit Managers - this helps a lot!
It has helped us improve our hiring program immensely.
Pros
I'm able to keep track of my individual location managers hiring progress by simply logging in and seeing their tracking of each candidate.
Cons
Talent pool functionality isn't 100% all the tie.

Very pleased with HigherMe
I was struggling with highering enough new staff, quickly enough. I had overpaid Indeed for help and while I did get applicants, in wasn't worth it financially. HigherMe is fairly priced. Their customer service is tremendously responsive- I'm having an excellent experience.
Pros
Ease of use. Clarity. Organized. The software improvements have been useful as well.
Cons
I am not able to repeat the same message to each interviewee. I need to cut and paste in the information each time I invite someone to interview. I'd like to have my template within HigherMe instead of needing to use my googledoc.

Is it different than any other hiring resource?
It's given me just one additional avenue to find people, but....
Pros
I get regular emails and it's easy to navigate the website, forward or communicate with applicants
Cons
Software it's fine, quality of candidates is always the issue for the restaurant industry
Reasons for choosing HigherMe
Intuitiveness, cost and honestly, just to try Quality of candidates, testing etc seems to not make any difference...

Higher Me helps Hiring for Me
The biggest problem was finding qualified candidates and HigherMe provides an abundance of potential candidates at a very reasonable cost.
Pros
HigherMe does the initial screening for me so I don't have to consume my time reviewing applications and screening out the unqualified candidates. The program is very easy to use and intuitive. It is easy to find what you need and it is very logical and straightforward.
Cons
There really isn't anything I don't like as it does exactly what I want it to.

New Customer
Overall, good but would like them to expand their technology.
Pros
We like the ease of set up and the affordability. This is a great way to test out a new technology without a lot of overhead or set up.
Cons
Limited functionality - as the administrator I do not have access to to any of the technology. Customer service provides the information.
