Recruitee Software

A Mixed Bag with some really shiny aspects besides some disappointing letdowns

Recruitee is a Tool which gets the Job done. It makes you scream at times and the UI makes you wonder wether the curses you just heared actually really came out of your own mouth. Then again it provides a hassle free way to set up Job offerings, keeps applicants in a clean status and supports your day to day work with simplifications that save you time (once you learned the UI). My general opinion is, it actually Recruitee still IS worth the price but I somewhat fear for the products future as in my impression Recruitee has been overrun by its own success, growing much too fast and loosing track of the fact, that a feature is only as good as its useability. Hopefully it does not choke on going too fast and finds its way back from a bucket list of features to delivering them enjoyably and in a user oriented way.

Pros

Back weh we started to use Recruitee we had a bunch of Email boxes and excel files. All our Job offerings were hand made and someone had to invest a huge amount of time making connections, answering emails and often only one step ahead of mishaps, confusion and losing potential candidates. This all changed when we introduced Recruitee. All of a sudden we had Trackable job offerings, Pipelines for candidates, a truly reliable control for who had access to what, Email templates and even some basic reporting. It was like a whole new world for us, and a great one. Today soe of the Features remain great. The Pipelines and Process structure for aplliccants works like a charm. Also building job offerings and integrating them into our career portal works really fantastically. Email templates are used a lot still as are the team discussion functionalities for applicants. Also sharing an application for a limited time with key members of the team he is supposed to work in is really easy, reasonably secure and easy to do.

Cons

All the Core Features are there and are okay. In May Areas however the user Interface suffers. PDF files, especially for the CV is a chore to use with magnification functionalities that make me scream. Also lot of the simple and clean user experience from teh early days has been cluttered up by additional features. As someone who designed UI and UX for a living I feel okay to say: Especially the recently added Email functionalities have never been properly user tested. The UI is hard to learn and in this particular area. The support works fast and is verry willing to help but often helpless regarding (our specific) cases. Basically a major UI Overhaul is something I would whish for intensely, especially if it could bring back the simplicity and ease of use from the early days

Simple to set-up

Pros

It was very easy for us to get this system set up and start using.

Cons

Still learning, but I would like a way to include videos to the application process and have them attach to the file.

Excellent value for money

I wanted to be able to publish a job offer, collect applications, evaluate the applicants and have an helicopter view of the whole process. Recruitee allowed me to publish our career site in 3 clicks, manage applications and follow our pipeline of candidates very easily.

Pros

The solution is user-friendly and packed with features. I was looking for a Lever replacement (I work in a SMB and we don't have the budget for Lever) and I'm very happy with Recruitee.

Cons

The user interface could be easier to understand. One of the features I use the most (the pipeline) is about 3 clicks away from the main dashboard.
I had a hard time figuring out how to create an evaluation template as well.

A good tool for recruitment

overall, much better than what our company used before :)

Pros

- Pipeline view for managing the applicants is very useful
- very simple and user friendly platform

Cons

- sometimes CVs dont load on the applicant page
- some unnecessary info if you are a hiring manager (not HR), like where the applications come from, i didnt use anything except "jobs"

Regarding this form - people already take time to give feedback, minimum requirement of characters is not necessary!

Very complete suite

Pros

Very useful is the capability to see all the history about people send their CV: from the possibility to merge candidates forms that are equal, to the list of conversation and e-mails between candidate and recruiters. Finally, recruiters comments, that can leave to help others recruiters, are visible and helpful

Cons

There is really a lot of information, so it happens that sometimes it is not so easy to find that chart or that stat that you know it exists but you don't remember exactly where

I enjoy working with this tool

In general I am happy about the tool

Pros

I see a very clear process of recruitment for each candidate and I can customise it whenever I want. There are comment fields, action points and tasks, notifications if needed. Its simple to use.

Cons

I would like to have instant reporting (to excel) by criteria I choose. Sometimes support comes with delays.

A cloud-based applicant tracking and hiring platform.

Pros

The application is very intuitive, user-friendly and easy to set up. It is very cost effective with respect to the features it provides. It helps to enable job promotions and source talent for your organization. You can create notes for your team. It enables to schedule interviews and tracks the activities of your team. They have a chrome extension that does job postings to several job websites. The application collaborates with both the hiring desk and the applicants and thereby you can schedule interviews with ease. Based on the number of vacancies available, you can adjust the hiring workflows. The customer service and support team are very quick in response and are available round the clock. Recruitee allows easy navigation.

Cons

There is no Linkedin integration and google calendar sync. It lacks advanced reporting features. The program does not implement Boolean searches.

Drag & Drop, Super Powerful Recruiting Software

If you are a 10-200 employer you should seriously think about implementing Recruitee - great product!

Pros

If you are looking for recruiting software that is enjoyable to use then Recruitee should be on your list. I find the drag and drop functionality really great. These guys have also taken so much time to think about flexibility. From custom hiring process to job advert template and even so much flexibility on your sourcing strategy. You can have Recruitee setup without having to get any technical implementation teams involved and changing a few things is also something you can do quickly and by yourself. Dashboards are custom, useful and easy to use.

Cons

It is more suitable to smaller to mid size companies who are looking to implement something quickly, easily and do not want to be locked into predefined process like the larger providers do. No cons at all.

Terrible Customer Support - OK Software

OK Software, but I wouldnt engage with them as you'll eventually need support, and then you'll be stuck wishing you choose another platform.

Pros

OK Product. Really not bad, it's relatively easy to use, and you can get quite far with it in terms of automation.

Cons

Terrible, terrible support. Every time I've had a (simple) question it's resulted in a disappointing customer service. Their customer support team is as helpful as if it were a pre-written bot outputting random responses.

Great product with even greater customer service

Pros

Recruitee is a great software but what's even better about it is the customer support that you get with it. I've always been helped very quickly in a friendly and professional manner. One of the rep, in particularly stands out as a great customer representative - always going above and beyond to help you.

Easy to use, with a focus on the things that really matter in the end.

Just a super good product with a great team behind it. I recommend using the tool to all of my customers (as an HR & Recruitment Specialist consultant).

Pros

Quick implementation, easy to use, really clear content on usability, great customer service, just an "all you need recruitment tool".

Cons

You have to do a lot of self-study to keep yourself up to date on features and I tend to be a lazy recruiter who does not do that.

It was one of the best choices I've made, it saves tons of time for our recruitment team!

This software saved a lot of our time for adminitrating resumes and also helps to monitor the recruitment processes very easily. It is simple and easy to use.

Pros

Recruitee software is easy to use and if there are any questions, customer support reacts very fast. There are the main functions that a recruitment team needs and recruitee offers on-time developments and additional functions.

Cons

I couldn't name any cons regarding this software, the updates we're in need specifically for our company have been implemented as the Recruitee team works very well and reacts very quickly to our requests and ideas.

Extremely easy to use for both recruiter and interviewers

Re-organised all the recruiting channels around Recruitee, benefited from integrations such as importing from Linkedin. Career website easy to set up and clean

Pros

Ease of use, follow the progress of a role search, add reviews for a candidate, add interviewers with limited access, browse through history of candidates

Cons

The career website customisation can be improved with further customisation. cost is quite high for smaller organisations

Great value for money

Pros

Recruitee is an easy to use ATS and career page builder, which is very user friendly and helps to collaborate with the hiring team and communicate with candidates. It's perfect for small/midsize organizations and great value for money.

Cons

I'd like to have more custom styling possibilities of the careerpage. Furthermore, support isn't always as fast as I would like

Super simple, great end product

Pros

It was extremely easy for me to set up on recruitee and list my job. I got a lot of great applicants as a result

Cons

Potentially it could have been done manually, but realistically it was worth it in terms of time saved

Well-structured platform that helps you at work

Pros

Great technical support easy to use an easy design a very didactic screen to understand it. Improve your performance when you start using it your business increases in great potential

Cons

Some problems with synchronization with Gmail. It has some flaws with the storage of its own servers but we hope they can improve it

Revolutionised our recruitment process.

Revolutionised our recruitment process.

Pros

It has made it so much easier to keep track of the process and actually get us to bring in better candidates and smooth out innefficiencies.

Cons

Not supported some features on hand-held devices which would be really useful in the future. They should really implement that and I am sure that they will.

Our recruitment best friend

Pros

it's super easy to use. Our recruitment process is so efficient and its really easy to use with our clients, we are all able to look at the same organization and candidates while sharing notes and thoughts without having to meet in person.

Cons

There needs to be some features love. There have been lots of features released since we started using the software, however, some Canadian job board love would be awesome!

An excellent experience throughout the trial period - exceptional support from Recruitee personnel

Pros

Everything from the ease of use to how much time it has saved me in my working day - it has completely transformed the way we handle our business.

Cons

Nothing at all - but would be a 'nice to have' if Tasks were visible on the iPad app version and phone.

Recruitee - easy and worth for price

Give it a try! It´s easy to use to promote openings and handle applications.

Pros

This product is very simple in use. It supports your recruitment process in a collaborative way making sure you do not lose candidates. You also can adjust recruitment workflow based on the nature of vacancy. It allow certain people with certain admissions, it is User-friendly, easy to get up and running, clear dashboard, amazing support team with a good sense of humor. Way better than some more 'well-known' ATS. They really focus on making the product, but stay at super reasonable and affordable prices. Provide clear overview of pipeline and all kinds of customized adjustment per job. Supports career site. Love the team notes, review and task feature - so helpful. Very nice reports with data. Involve team members in recruitment and make communication easier and faster. Too many good functions! Love it as a recruiter.

Cons

Not possible to work with authorizations if we are looking for some particular visa status like cannot search for H1B or usc or green card
