Reviews
(1-25 of 90)Jobvite is a great time-saver with all of its automation capabilities!
- Allows for customization to each company's needs
- Saves time by automating administrative tasks
- Initial set-up is a very complicated process. Jobvite provided us with an implementation specialist who walked us through each step of the process. But it is a huge undertaking, and companies need to be aware of the time investment they are making.
- Support has been a bit rocky. Answers are slow to come, and often unhelpful. Our account representative is our go-to and we try to avoid support whenever possible.
Best in class in all categories - and only getting better
- Transparency - hiring managers and recruiters can see the full activity/status/communication with a candidate.
- Candidate management - the workflow helps manage your pipeline, especially with a high number of applications.
- Careers site - our site is beautiful and effective.
- Customization - workflows, forms, communications, etc. all customizable.
- Onboarding suite - can build custom forms (and use out of the box forms, too) to have new hires complete required paperwork.
- Onboarding - many fields can transfer automatically from the hiring side to the onboarding side of the system, but not all of them.
- ATS - the structure of candidate applications (one candidate profile, but each application for each job has it's own record/info) can cause some minor inconveniences, but Jobvite has mitigated them.

Jobvite--best applicant tracking system so far
- Asks and checks for our requirement of candidates.
- Recommendations provided more easily.
- User friendly.
- Chat option times all of sudden.
- Reports should be more customized.
- Sharing job postings is great. Spreading the word to internal and external networks of our job postings is great to get exposure and create awareness that we might not otherwise be able to do.
- Allows access for managers to see their own applicants to their own positions. This saves us recruiters time to do other pressing projects, while allowing managers to not wait for recruiters to get around to viewing their applicants. It cuts down on wait times.
- The layout and user interface is streamlined, easy to follow, and easy to use. This helps those that are less tech-savvy figure out the system quicker and cuts down on redundant steps for us recruiters, so it saves time and wasted efforts.
- Some of the functions and commands could be more linear, rather than taking you out of the logical step in a process and then having to back-track. This isn't a huge issue, but there are times where you have to back out or close something in order to get to the next thing.
- The wait time after clicking on an icon or doing a command is sometimes unusually slow. If I click on an applicant's profile to see information or a resume, it can take 10 or more seconds for the system to process and bring up a new window. This issue has been raised by my company, but so far no solution has been rolled out.
- Some of the self-guided tutorials and webinars could be shortened or made more interactive to ensure the content is retained.
The whole Jobvite package
- Tracks each applicant's files individually, helps us stay organized and pull up information quickly.
- Tracks all of our templates and helps our ops team generate the correct contracts.
- Syncs well with Workday - all of the information streams from one system to the other smoothly.
- The reports are hard to follow and use, a bit clunky.
- Sometimes the system works slowly.
Long-time Jobvite user, so-so experience
- Integration with onboarding
- Candidate history over time and across other applications
- User-friendly
- The user interface is not ideal. It feels vert antiquated
- Scheduling things like phone screens or interviews is not easy/calendar integration tools are poor
- Haven’t kept up with other ATSs that are doing interesting work around blinding resumes/adding features around bias mitigation
Jobvite literally has all the answers!
- It is great at personalizing user experiences for each type of user we have.
- Very customizable!
- Easy to add locations or delete locations.
- Easy to update job descriptions.
- So far I haven’t found anything I would want to change!
Ace Applicant Tracking System with Very Big Benefits
- User friendly for both internal and external users.
- There is so much that you can adjust or modify to suit your org or team's specific needs.
- The application process is seamless from start to finish with Jobvite including applying, application screening, changing statuses, recording notes, messaging candidates, submitting/sending offers, signing/accepting offers, onboarding, and hiring.
- Building reports feels a little clunky, and often requires more support, but we do not need to use this too often, as once reports are built they are mainly untouched.
- At times it is difficult to submit tickets with Jobvite, as it often takes a long time for Jobvite support to understand what the need is and to resolve an issue.
- We have also had some issues with consistency of what Jobvite support does for us vs. what we have to do on our own. These issues have only arisen in the last few months.
Jobvite works for large-scale, multi-department recruitment
- Applicant tracking.
- Sharing candidate details - The ability to share candidate information across teams and hiring managers is a huge plus.
- Candidate screening / video interviewing is a big time saver.
- Campaigns and integrations into social media could be better.
Jobvite experience
- Candidate sourcing.
- Candidate tracking.
- Candidate sharing.
- More details in candidate demographics when sharing.
Overall a good product
- Easy application process for applicants.
- Easy to move candidates through interview process.
- Tracks all communication with candidates so team members can also view messages.
- Prescheduling drip-communications for automatic follow ups on interview requests.
- easier customized reports.
- Job alerts are location specific and cannot be used by multiple locations in one region.
I love my ATS
- Workflow- I love that you can immediately see where in the process a candidate is.
- Dashboard- The customization and overall feel of the site.
- Feed- The fact that you can see the feed from the candidates other applications is a plus.
- Primarily the analytics they have worked on this recently but it does take some deep diving to really understand how to put it to use.
- Knowledge Base- Easier search criteria.
- Back Button- For some reason my browser does not like when I want to go back, a lot of time I just start over.
Solid ATS
- Standard ATS module is efficient and fairly customizable.
- It's fairly easy to add new custom fields, although those less familiar with the system should reach out to support to confirm they're setting up fields in the correct way to ensure there are no "trickle down" effects.
- Our assigned Customer Success Manager is fantastic and a great partner to work with on issues and new initiatives.
- Their knowledge base is pretty extensive, and I like that I can submit product feedback/suggestions and upvote any suggestions already created.
- Reporting is awful. They updated their reporting structure and it is *not* the most efficient. We've always had issues with Jobvite reporting, and while some things have improved, others got worse.
- We lost the ability to run certain fields, or even entire reports, due to Jobvite no longer letting us pull data that's obviously available in the system. I don't know why we can't pull data *we gather* in our system, and I haven't been able to get a solid answer on it other than "we just can't do that anymore."
- They've also removed the ability to share a report with a single user, which is a hindrance when we have confidential or restricted information we need to share. I don't want to set up individual user roles, set up a reporting folder, and have to move a report over to that folder, especially if it's a report they previously had access to prior to moving over to the new reporting system.
- Jobvite support is really hit or miss. Some support employees are extremely helpful, actually listen to the issue, and provide assistance accordingly. Others seem to skip over questions and facts entirely, answer from a predefined script, and "solve" an issue that wasn't even being asked.
- There are also often *very* long wait times for chat support (I'm talking an average 30-45 minutes waiting to ask a simple question - at that point, why even have the feature?).
- I'd like to see better integration and setup abilities between Onboarding and other systems. It's difficult to make necessary changes or updates without "breaking" something or having to use paid Jobvite services.
Couldn't be happier!
- Updates to the system based on user needs.
- Customer support.
- Data available for reporting.
- Would like video interview to automatically move to completed status.
Talent Acquisition Game Changer!
- Requesting candidate availability for scheduling
- Approval processes
- Candidate workflow
- Incorporating real-time video interview links (like RingCentral) into the scheduling without cutting and pasting
- Ability to send ad hoc candidate forms
- Ability to set permissions based on data components (like locations or department)
- Ability to have different internal vs external application processes/forms (also, the ability to forward application forms to candidates that come in through other means--like referred by a friend, added candidate, etc.)
- Ability to customize the in-app apply form from within Jobvite (vs the career site apply page)
Jobvite is a life changer!
- Workflow--super easy to set up and maintain.
- Candidate experience--it is a smooth, professional experience for candidates. The text feature makes it feel personal.
- Onboarding experience--use of tasks makes the onboarding experience easy to administer, and easy for new hires.
- Custom fields--custom fields do not follow the candidate from hire to onboarding. This is problematic because we then have to recreate on the onboarding side to then import into our HRIS.
- Onboarding picklists are time-consuming to populate. We have to enter options one at a time, rather than being able to do an import. Also, field mapping on Hire is a lot easier than having to set up tags on option sets in onboarding.
