Use Cases and Deployment Scope

We have used Greenhouse extensively in our organisation for Recruitment related activities. I being the Head of Engineering there worked with HR team to write Job postings in the application, review candidature profiles, set up interviews, give feedback for the candidate for the same. Also a use case is where we have used Greenhouse to track referral activity, anyone referred by internal employees for the role is easily tracked and the person who referred would have good visibility on the status

Pros

Greenhouse super simple when it comes to feedback on interviews, I had my new Engineers take interviews and they were able to easily understand and use the system to write feedback
As a person who refers to multiple people, I can see the status of each role and person I have referred to.
Greenhouse is the most simple ATS out there in the market, its ease of use helped us onboard new members in our hiring team and scale them

Cons

Intergration with external tools like codility, etc can be done
Their support is late to respond in case of issues, they can improve their support service and reduce turnaround time
They can start supporting video interviews

Return on Investment

Faster interview scheduling process
Scaling up when it comes to multiple recruitment profiles
Closing recruitment for Internships a lot faster by screening 1000+ candidates easily

Use Cases and Deployment Scope

We use Greenhouse to manage and track our recruiting process as well as tracking our job posting. This is helping to keep our candidates organized as well as the interview process streamlined for a better candidate experience. We also can track any employee referrals which is very helpful.

Pros

Tracking the progress of a candidate
Integrates well with our existing other vendors
has good privacy settings for managers

Cons

Not a fan of the privacy settings on when you've moved on from a candidate, it hides resumes that even admins can't see which isn't helpful

Return on Investment

It's very expensive, so unless you're actively and massively recruiting, you won't need this
It great when we're massively hiring, employees are able to easily see job postings
It's very intuitive and helps with our HR processes with the integrations

Use Cases and Deployment Scope

We currently us Greenhouse for managing recruitment processes. Greenhouse makes it incredibly easy to gather interview feedback through easily customisable score-cards. The centralised candidate information works brilliantly and I love how easily I can onboard my new team members on Greenhouse.

Pros

Centralised candidate information for all recruitment processes.
Customisable score cards for the panel members.
Automated nudges to the panel members to put in their feedback after the session.
Easily trackable referral processes.

Cons

AI guidance on framing the feedback, at time not everyone is a native english speaker, some help with words / phrases can really make the product shine.

Return on Investment

Thanks to Greenhouse, we can keep the feedback collection time after the interview process under 24 hours.
Fast closing of positions.
Streamlines referral tracking.
