### Most mentioned pros

- Some useful aspects of Jobvite include the Requisition tab which is very intuitive and has search options you can refine (freeform search field, company, locations, department, requisition type, etc.), I also enjoy how it has the recruiter and hiring manager names on the job postings and an easy way to see what jobs you can send a "Jobvite for".
- Using Jobvite is a bit like exploring a high-tech hiring hub it’s filled with good features that make recruitment more efficient, but it also comes with a learning curve and challenges that new user may take time and high effort to learn the whole process.
- I enjoy having an internal platform to leverage to search for internal job openings and send referral invitations to external applicants!

### Most mentioned cons

- I think the "Jobvites" is less intuitive than the "Requisitions" tab.
- There are a few things I do not like about JobVite's interface that can be improved.
- The system could occasionally lag

### Jobvite does the things a Talent Attraction Pro needs...without a lot of fuss

- Overall rating: 5/5
- Reviewer: Bill W.
- Verified reviewer: Yes
- Industry: Information Technology and Services
- Company size: 5001-10000 employees
- Product usage: Used daily for less than 2 years
- Reviewed: April 2019
- Review source details: This reviewer was invited by us to submit an honest review and offered a nominal incentive as a thank you.

I have used all major Applicant Tracking and Applicant RM systems. Jobvite is the cleanest of what might be termed the "minimalist" systems. It gets the job done without a lot of fuss. Very user-centric and intuitive, ramp-time is fairly short. Some of the bells (Campaigns, email "slams" etc.) have a steep learning curve; this is problematic for me since I am working specialist positions rather than commodity positions.

#### Ratings breakdown

- Ease of use: 4/5
- Customer support: 5/5
- Functionality: 4/5

#### Pros

There are three elements with Jobvite that are just the best: 1. Each landing page is clean and consistent. Any TA Pro knows that every implementation of a system like Jobvite is modified to meet the needs of the client. I've used Jobvite at two companies and while there were the expected differences, the overall look, feel and function was essential the same, module to module. 2. Jobvite has done a great job of integrating the Engage side with the rest of the functionality. One of my personal metrics for ATSs is "can I get from Point A to Point B in four or fewer mouse clicks." Jobvite has done themselves proud in meeting a metric they likely didn't know existed. 3. Jobvite has sufficient points for adding significant information about a candidate as the candidate moves through the selection process. This is important for many reasons and most TA Pros know what they are.

#### Cons

There is one issue that drives me up a wall with Jobvite and it is pervasive throughout the application. Data and information that should be passed to 1. other common applications or 2. stay with the applicant as the applicant is moved within Jobvite to other requisitions (and this is a hyper-common occurrence) JUST DOESN'T HAPPEN. Two examples: 1. Jobvite makes it very easy to send a quick note to a potential candidate from within a requisition. Problem--that note doesn't get passed to the primary email client AND if the candidate tries to reply, the reply does not go directly to the primary email client. Drives me up a wall. 2. In my organization, we have very close control over visa sponsorship. If I reject a candidate for requiring visa sponsorship and note that fact in the NOTE function, that is not married to the candidate's record. Having this functionality would save Talent Attraction team time.

### Great for talent acquisition

#### Ratings breakdown

- Ease of use: 5/5
- Value for money: 5/5

#### Pros

The jobvite platform has made recruiting a breeze for our talent acquisition team. The user interface is intuitive and allows us to easily schedule interviews and track candidates throughout the hiring process.

#### Cons

The reporting tools could use some updating, but we track all of that separately anyways. We have a great experience tracking on boarding, but better reporting would be useful for streamlining insights into how we could improve our hiring process.

#### Reasons for choosing Jobvite

More robust functionality and more competitive price point

#### Cons

The system can sometimes be finicky and changes will happen with little to no explanation. Our customer service rep is always able and willing to help resolve the issues, but it would be helpful if they didn't happen in the first place!

Overall my experience is great, I like that Jobvite is easy to use and you can pretty much jump in and start using it and figuring things out without worrying about "messing" anything up. Recruiters and sourcers alike will find that it does not slow down the process and if the company switched to Jobvite they would not be unhappy.

#### Ratings breakdown

#### Pros

The pros for Jobvite is that is customizable and really easy to use. You don't need very much training and it links to your social platforms so sending automated announcements is easy!

#### Cons

Cons about the software are that it can be slow at times and there is not a texting feature YET.

#### Reasons for switching to Jobvite

I believe it was for cost, however Jobvite is easier to use that iCIMS but very similar, if you have used iCIMS you can use Jobvite.

I had a great experience, except for working out the integration glitches, as it cost me my position and was not discovered until later - HR did call and clarify what happened after. I am sure that it is all configured correctly, as it has been 5 years since this happened. I love the ease of use of JobVite over previous products such as iSIMs and BrassRing.

#### Ratings breakdown

- Ease of use: 5/5

#### Pros

I love the ease of use of this product and that I could have pre-set questions in one panel while being able to view the resume in another. The ease of scheduling through the platform and integration to Outlook is fantastic.

#### Cons

Sometimes, Outlook meetings scheduled through JobVite would not show up in Outlook or be captured in JobVite but only in Outlook. This was disappointing because I had scheduled meetings that counted toward my KPI, and they would appear in Outlook but not in JobVite. This led to punishment on my end. After discovering what happened with this glitch, it was too late for me.

My overall experience with Jobvite has been positive. As mentioned before, I've used Workday for jobs after I get a job offer to be hired. It's super easy to use and access. My favorite part about Workday is how easy it is to access all important documents and information. When getting a new job, the onboarding process can be overwhelming some times with all the paperwork you need ot fill out

I used Jobvite to set up my profile account when I first got hired for my current job. Workday was my one-stop go to when onboarding where I was able to find all my documents I needed to fill out for hire and information about the company.

#### Cons

I do not have any negative reviews to say about Jobvite. I've used Jobvite for multiple jobs which speaks for itself to show it's a trustworthy website to use.

Last time I reviewed JobVite, I wasn't quite as satisfied with it as I am now. It has definitely improved and I can say I am happy with it. The new search function just got updated, so I haven't been able to use it much, but from the demos I've seen, it looks quite promising. We also recently got a new account manager and she has been very good about communicating with me and so that is always a plus too.

### State of the art social media recruiting platform with a lackluster recruiting workflow.

#### Ratings breakdown

#### Pros

The Social Media platform integration is still best in class. It works well and allows easy visibility for your company's jobs across all social media platforms.

#### Cons

There are several things, but the actual ATS part of the system seems to have been designed as an afterthought. The workflow is not intuitive and there are too many features that just are not there for a modern search firm, and I imagine it would be very frustrating for an internal corporate recruiter as well. The worst feature though is their enforced branding through email. If you use Jobvite, every time you send an email through their platform it will go out with a jobvite.com email address. This means that many of your candidates will just not see the emails you send because their junk mail filters are picking up the jobvite.com email address as spam because they have a very high junk mail score and also because the word job is in the email address. When I used Jobvite as a corporate recruiter, I was constantly having to call candidates to see if they had received my emails and when I found out they had not I was resending messages from outside of Jobvite. When I called Jobvite, they said this was not a feature that could be easily turned off, and that the only way to do this was for our sys admins to make changes to the company domain settings and if your admins are like mine, they are not going near that with a 10 foot pole. This an idiotic feature and a deal killer for anyone in the recruiting industry.

It gets the job done and it's useful for us as a small business to have a place where people can apply online without building our own application process on our website. It's simple for applicants to fill out, but it is time-consuming on our end to get the applications ready.

#### Ratings breakdown

- Ease of use: 3/5
- Customer support: 5/5
- Functionality: 3/5

#### Pros

I like that you are able to put pretty much anything and everything on the screening forms. So many other software/websites make their application so simplistic that we barely get any information from our candidates other than a resume. We have a full application that we like our candidates to fill out so it is nice to be able to put all the questions we want on the screening form. It's also a convenient way to keep all of our recruiting needs in one spot.

#### Cons

It's not as user-friendly as I would like it. Creating the screening forms is very time-consuming. It's difficult to be able to delete requisitions or candidates which I understand, but at the same time, it would be useful to have. I inherited the software from our previous HR rep and there were so many things that were incorrect and what not and it's really difficult to clean up requsitions. I'd also prefer if we could turn off the general application as we get so many resumes for positions that sometimes don't even exist.

In my overall experience with Jobvite, I found it to be a powerful and reliable solution for streamlining the recruitment process. The ATS functionality, coupled with features like candidate screening and interview scheduling, provided a comprehensive platform for managing the end-to-end hiring journey. Jobvite's robust capabilities significantly contributed to optimizing recruitment efforts and enhancing collaboration among hiring teams. With improved accessibility to advanced features, Jobvite has the potential to be an even more valuable tool in the talent acquisition landscape.

#### Ratings breakdown

- Ease of use: 4/5
- Value for money: 5/5

#### Pros

One of the standout features I liked most about Jobvite was its robust applicant tracking system (ATS). It provided a seamless and organized platform for managing job applications, tracking candidate progress, and collaborating with hiring teams. The ability to customize workflows and automate various stages of the hiring process was a significant time-saver and improved overall efficiency.

#### Cons

One aspect that I found slightly challenging about Jobvite was the learning curve associated with navigating its more advanced features. While the basic functionalities were easy to grasp, fully utilizing some of the more complex features required a bit of exploration and familiarization. Improved onboarding resources or tutorials could alleviate this learning curve for new users.

It serves as a one stop product for all things recruiting related from, communicating with hiring managers to candidates and everything in between.

#### Cons

The reporting could be stronger, an more fluid approach with LinkedIn Recruiter, and better email options. The ability to add a signature in the email templates that doesn't look generic.

#### Reasons for choosing Jobvite

Some of our business partners had positive things to say about the produce, our contact at LinkedIn shared that they were using it and love it and the ability to have our people share our jobs through social media with very little effort.

#### Vendor response

Vince, thank you so much! We appreciate you!

We used to have trouble managing job postings across multiple platforms and it was hard for different hiring managers to work with HR to know if they had candidates. Everyone was on a different page or doing their own approach to hiring and we weren't getting the right candidates.

Jobvite easily syncs within our website we are able to have jobs display across our site and easily update them in Jobvite. I can create custom links for social media to track how different jobs are drawing in candidates.

#### Cons

My one con is that I cannot customize automated social media postings to employee's profiles by job. It's a great feature to have and would be even better if I could write custom text for each job.

Jobvite is a useful tool that is essential to tracking an applicant and making the process easy for everyone. There are a wide range of features for many use cases.

#### Ratings breakdown

- Ease of use: 4/5
- Functionality: 5/5

#### Pros

I have used the applicant tracking the most. It is easy to create links to send to applicants that links them directly back to you as the one who recommended them. I like how there are a number of ways to share a job posting and it will provide analytics over which postings are the most successful.There are multiple phases an applicant can go through that make it easy to track the status. I am not in HR, so there is a whole side of this that I haven't seen. From a hiring manager stand point, this product definitely gets the job done!

#### Cons

The interface can be a bit tricky to get used to. Some controls are in places I wouldn't expect. There are multiple ways to achieve the same thing, but sometimes your ability to do something depends on what method you chose to get there.They recently updated their login technology to be more secure. This is great, but it's a bit clunky. When you time out, the page does not redirect you to the correct login page. I keep having to manually change the url to get to the right place.

Jobvite is very user friendly and makes it easy for us to train new employees on. I really like the side bar that walks you through anything that you are not sure on. I am also a fan of Jobvite Publisher, great to have social media posts while you are sleeping... set and forget.

#### Cons

It's need to move a little quicker with the times! Needs to have text message capabilities.. we should be able to text our candidates through the system... we should be sending an auto text 1 hr before their interview with address link and 1 hour after interview thanking them for their time. It should also have option for a Bot Recruiting assistant... one would be scheduling interviews and chat feature to pre-screen our candidates. Similar to systems like textRecruit and Paradox Olivia... do not like that we have to go out to additional vendors.

I had to use Jobvite on a daily basis. As a new user it was not so hard to understand its use. It helped to concentrate all hiring processes. The numbers were also helpful.

#### Ratings breakdown

- Ease of use: 3/5
- Functionality: 3/5

#### Pros

I used a lot the search tool, notes, and messages. Being integrated with email tool was amazing and I could reply right there on Jobvite. Notes was important since I could communicate internally and also include important observations to other recruiters. Search bar was one of the features I used the most since I remembered a name of a candidate and typed it on the search bar.

#### Cons

I missed the favorite button where I could "save" some candidates. I was hiring for a junior position and there were a lot of candidates. Not all of them should go to resume review phase but I'd like to save the ones I liked to possibly move them to Resume Review.

### Challenges on two topics: Boolean Search and Dashboard

#### Ratings breakdown

- Ease of use: 4/5
- Value for money: 3/5
- Customer support: 4/5
- Functionality: 4/5

#### Pros

JobVite does a decent job in terms of our workflow and processing candidates to the next step. The communication to hiring managers and candidates and tracking that info works.

#### Cons

The Boolean Search is very basic. I should be able to quickly view candidates on my req when searching by a name. Candidates that are active on a req somehow should have priority on a list. Also the dashboard sometimes is hard to read - would be nice to change the color or somehow differentiate the reqs. When you have a big list and look the same in terms of font size and links, it takes time to scan and find your req. The boolean search of candidates is very basic. The Engage part of CRM is kind of rough.

### Would be better if they had good Customer Support and their platform was more stable

It's not horrible, if you've never used an ATS before, you'll think it's terrific. If you've used some of the others like Level or Greenhouse, you'll think it's fair but not great.

#### Ratings breakdown

- Ease of use: 5/5
- Value for money: 4/5
- Customer support: 1/5
- Functionality: 4/5

#### Pros

I like the ease of use, it's somewhat intuitive and has a lot of good features. They have a lot of good training tutorials online so it's pretty easy to get hiring managers to use it. For the money, it's not a bad ATS, I'd give it a B- if I were grading it.

#### Cons

Their site goes down quite a bit which leaves you stuck not being able to do anything. Customer Support is super hard to get in touch with, you'll stay on the phone waiting for someone to answer for hours, if they ever do they are not very helpful. The reporting leaves a lot to be desired. It does some very basic reporting, but sometimes the numbers are not accurate and trying to get support to help understand why is impossible.
