Game Changer
I love having this new source of candidates. I look forward to using it daily.
PROSBeing able to attain personal emails & numbers in a matter of seconds is a game changer. I loved the quality of candidates I received back. Much better than LinkedIn.
CONSI wish, during the free trial, I could see what the ATS integration looks like. Also not all the data was perfect. I did get candidates that their cities did not match, or that they had just started a new job.
Reasons for switching to RecruitBot
It is much more effective, financially and productivity wise.

Awesome for Engineering Hires
Amazing platform and fantastic customer success team
PROSAn extensive candidate database, complete with LinkedIn profiles, for easy review. Advanced filters, including specific skill sets or programming languages. Machine learning results derived from data collected from 10 candidates who match our selection criteria and 10 who do not. Fully automated outreach. An amazing customer success staff that ensures not only the on-track progress of candidate search and outreach but also provides best practices to prevent your emails from being labeled as spam.
CONSLimited to what is explicitly declared on LinkedIn, for example, if you're looking for Next.js expertise, then the word 'Next.js' has to be explicitly declared in the candidate's profile. Unfortunately, there are candidates who do not keep their LinkedIn profiles detailed enough or up-to-date. However, for all other candidates, this platform is perfect.
Reason for choosing RecruitBot
Automated outreach and advanced filters for searching
Vendor Response
We're thrilled you're able to find some amazing founding engineers and tech staff with RecruitBot!

Recruitbot is a great addition to my sourcing needs
The customer service support during and post implementation is fantastic. When I am stuck on anything from search criteria to managing candidates, the response is quick and helpful. I have found great candidates through Recruitbot that I have not found through other sources.
PROSRecruitbot is very user friendly. I love being able to "set and forget" I can play with the parameters in realtime to find the right set of criteria to ensure the best matches.
CONSI would love to add industry (this might be unique to me, but I have quite a few niche searches) and be able to assign more relevant status updates.
Reason for choosing RecruitBot
I have reviewed many services but don't remember them all. Recruitbot was the only service I decided to try - and happy I did.
Vendor Response
Thanks for the great review! We're thrilled that RecruitBot is your top choice for sourcing and recruiting - we're constantly adding new search criteria based on user feedback and appreciate the comments.

Get Rid Of LinkedIn Recruiter and Get RecruitBot Instead
Easy to use and implement. Customer service is great. Sales team is fair. Pricing is great. Database is huge.
PROSRB is easy to use and affordable. The value exceeds the cost by far. The customer service team is 10X more helpful than LinkedIn has ever been. This is easy to use, easy to track, and easy to implement. We made 3+ hires our first week after implementing with dozens lined up for the next few.
CONSNo cons. I love this thing. I try to bring it with me whenever I stand up a new org.
Reasons for switching to RecruitBot
Cost, value, database, capabilities, and customer service.

Thanks Nick for the great review--glad we were able to help you and the team find amazing candidates and make several hires in the first week! Amazing!

RecruitBot is excellent value for AI talent sourcing
I have had a very good experience with the platform, its quality, and the service from the RecruitBot team. I recommend considering RecruitBot for your AI sourcing needs.
PROSThe first and most important takeaway I had with RecruitBot is how responsive their team was regarding my interest in AI talent sourcing. Their team really wanted to understand my business and the industry vertical I operate in to determine how I could maximize RecruitBot for my purposes. Beyond these initial steps they were highly supportive in my efforts to set the platform up for my specific needs. Once I was oriented with the system, I found it both intuitive and easily navigable.
CONSWhen conducting a search, the 'skills' section is not yet up to speed as a filter. However, having talked with RecruitBot about this function, I understand it will be fully online and operational in a few weeks.
Reason for choosing RecruitBot
RecruitBot was willing to work with me on scaling the pricing of the platform based on my use and needs. Additionally, I felt the platform interface was highly intuitive

We're thrilled you've been able to leverage RecruitBot and our machine learning/AI to help you find amazing candidates for your positions!

After years of using other Recruiting tools, Recruitbot is the better solution....
Would recommend this to anyone looking for a simple, easy to use recruiting tool that gives you the best response rate.
PROSI love how easy Recruitbot is to use. The user interface is simple, straight forward and allows you to get in the software and find exactly what you need without any complication. My absolute favorite part of the software is the email campaigns. Unlike other Recruiting tools, you can set up a campaign that directly sends from whomever (hiring manager, CEO) and unlike just sending a message ONE time, the campaign will send a customized message THREE times over the course of a few days. I have experienced amazing response rates after the 2nd and 3rd emails. Really, truly a VERY valuable tool.
CONSWould love to see an ATS as part of the offering.
Reasons for switching to RecruitBot
Much more cost effective and the email campaigns.

RecruitBot is my secret sauce!
RecruitBot is a fundamentally delightful product. I'm not a recruiter, but this product and team make it a joy to recruit. Deploying boolean searches on resumes makes identifying key candidates a breeze and I'm consistently impressed by the depth and accuracy of the db of candidates.
CONSThe platform has its bugs. Every once and while I'll get an error, but am consistently impressed by their support team's quick responses + ability to diagnose anything that's happened and rectify it in minutes. Beyond that, the platform is consistently improving + they take feedback to heart.
Vendor Response

Amazing. From the product to the customer service…everything is great.
PROSLinkedIn is saturated and has some limitations. Recruiters all know this. We just never had another place to go…until now. Recruitbot let’s me live outside of LinkedIn and outside of LinkedIn mailboxes. The search function on RB pulls quality resumes. I’m able to go direct to their personal inbox and “skip the line”.
CONSN/ACan’t think of anything right now. It does exactly what I need it to do.

Best recruiting tool out there. Found my best people through Recruitbot.
Recruitbot has been a godsend. I found my [SENSITIVE CONTENT] and two other top employees with their application. It allows you to reach people who aren't necessarily looking so you can get excellent candidates who aren't being inundated with offers.
PROSIt's so easy to create multiple searches based on very specific criteria (i.e. experience, location, language, etc.). The outreach is amazing. Candidates feel the messages are coming from me, not an automated app.
CONSNothing. It's intuitive and easy to use.
Reason for choosing RecruitBot
I tested it for two weeks and found my [SENSITIVE CONTENT]. Three years later, I can't imagine a more instrumental hire to our business.

Great leverage for Recruiting
RecruitBot has allowed me as a recruiting team of one be able to streamline my sourcing efforts and reach more candidates than I could on any other tool for the same amount of time spent. We also find candidates that match what we need much faster using the ai, and I'm able to calibrate with my Hiring Managers async.
PROSI love how easy it is to use and that I'm able to lean into the ai to find quality candidates to reach out to in bulk. I also love being able to search specifically for diversity.
CONSI've found that sometimes the data can be a little out of date, so it just means an extra click to clarify on LinkedIn before I reach out.

Thank you for the great review, we're thrilled you've been able to leverage RecruitBot to find amazing candidates - especially using our bulk outreach and search using DEI indicators!

Excellent!
- Candidate search and filters were excellent, 100x better than Linkedin search- Drip campaigns and templates were extremely helpful- Email support is amazing, fast response times- Helped us source and close 2-3 candidates
CONS- UI is a bit bareboned and the UX was tough to figure out at first. I'm forgetting specific examples but I remember having to email support to figure out simple things- Inability to cancel outbound scheduled emails (I believe?)- Didn't play well with multiple emails, which I needed because some emails were getting marked as spam due to large outbound volumes- Default setting to send me an email whenever someone opened my outbound was very annoying

I would never pay for this
If this tool was free, I would consider it (on days when I don't have anything else going on). However, there is no way I would ever pay for something like this...they are certainly NOT competing with LinkedIn.
PROSThey can verify some emails, that's really the only pro I can list.
CONSThe platform seems very old school and out of date. There aren't any candidates on recruitbot that I wasn't able to already find on LinkedIn. They claim their response rate to be so high but I got very little responses (I got way more on LinkedIn through Inmail). They claim the machine learning saves you so much time but it's not even accurate.

PROSHuge database of resumes with excellent search capability. I could make a useful search query within minutes and generate dozens of interesting resumes to rank. Automated emailing to prospect candidates is really well done and feels very personal to the people emails are sent to.

Great Ai sourcing tool
Overall expertise has been positive. The search function is pretty user friendly. Their customer success is absolutely fantastic, esp [sensitive content hidden]. He’s helped me with searches and re-doing my find to find more candidates, hopped on calls to consult with me and been very responsive and quick. Even when he was OOO the person covering for him knocked it out of the park. I have found other new sourcing tools to have more functionality at a lower cost though so hoping they come out with some new features since I’m locked into a year contract.
PROSThe diversity filters - especially the female first name filter.
