Reviews
(1-25 of 129)Best ATS I have used!
- Simple backend set up and admin training
- Intuitive workflows
- Could be easier to organise back to back interviews
- Reporting is mostly very good but can end up with some duplicate data
SmartRecruiters an efficient ATS
- Multicast
- Delayed response
- User Management
- Personalized consultation of different tabs
- Viewing the CV
- Extensive but complex configuration
SmartRecruiters review
- Compliance
- Centralize all applicants and historical data in one solution
- Templates, mass emails
- User friendly page
- I wish SmartRecruiters could let you reject an applicant from all open requisitions at once
Best TA Suite out there
It was essential in getting our applicant-to-hire ratio to 200:1, with a time to hire of 40 days, and only half a recruiter on it. Through its workflow automations and off-the-shelf integrations we ensure excellent candidate experience, hyper-efficient recruiters, and happy hiring managers. All compliant.
- Attracting hundreds of applicants
- Bulk candidate management
- Templates
- Automation
- Interview self scheduling
- GDPR compliance
- career site builder for small companies
- Sending interview and self-schedule interview invitations directly from the platform and integrated to Outlook.
- All sorts of possibilities to ask questions or add important information about the candidate (screening questions, forms, specific and customized fields such as notice period, salary range or expectations, etc.)
- The recruiter interface is really good, with lots of details to allow the team to be more organized and efficient
- Too many filters that are not the most important ones. Sometimes it's hard to find what we are looking for
- I'd like the possibility to customize the fields and filters more (especially on the candidates tab)
- Because SmartRecruiters is SO complete, it can be complex to do some setups or to use all its functionalities sometimes
Recruitment coordinators review
- Logs all activity on candidates and roles
- Offers support and advice on new products
- User-friendly
- Sometimes changes are made and they don't need to be made. Example: the scheduling page layout
SmartRecruiters...really is the Smart choice!
- Data insight
- Simple workflow management
- Easy to use interface
- Configurable to our requirements
- Customer Service and support
- Collaboration with other customers using the community
- Job template management
- Restriction of editing Job advert fields
Using Smartrecruiters it is never wanted other product !
- we can post our jobs at once in all partners
- we can manage all candidates really quickly
- platform really clear
- template management
- multiposting done automaticly and not by hand
As I now working through all countries of Europe to put Smartrecruiters within our colleagues I can see that when we have to use the platform in all countries the using and setting can be complicated.
The rolls of the ATS market !
- work perfectly with lots of other tools
- Is almost 100% adjustable to your specifc need
- Help recruiting manager to keep track of what's going on with their vacancy
- The websites are not as adjustable as the rest of the application
- Smartrecruiters don't ask for money for an API integration to work, but some partners do.
Great ATS, can always be better as any software but User Voice is nice and our CSM is really helping !
Allowing us to track properly the candidates paths and improving the overall candidate experience, it also allows us to keep an history and track the right KPIs.
- Interview scheduling
- Provide detail data
- Easy posting
- More automation on some settings
- Fields for recruiters other than notes (with privacy access)
- Being able to build our own dashboards
Very happy with my SmartRecruiters experience!
- Job advertising
- Candidate experience
- User assistance (best HelpVenter and support team ever!)
- Integration via API of Pole Emploi
- Sharing reports with groups (not individual users)
- Be able to give read access to settings sections for custom system roles
Smart or Not SmartRecruiter
- Design of platform
- Ease of use
- database
- scheduling
- Actual link or window to subscriptions
- better pricing for more known job search engines
- ability to renew old job search titles
Candidate selection process streamlined
- Provide multiple functions
- Good CV linking
- Referral system
- Difficult journey back to my open roles
- Always pushed to a homepage of all vacancies in company vs individual dashboard
Reliable Applicant Tracking System
- Job Advertising
- Candidate Tracking
- Candidate Communication
- Background Checks
- Interview Scheduling
- Onboarding
- Feedback tracking
- Resume viewing- does not always show
- Note Tracking
- Candidate Searching
- Candidate's Applicant fields do not follow the candidate when they are moved from job to job
Smart ATS
- Offer template customisations
- Being able to set up multiple different approval chains for jobs and offers
- Applicant tracking
- Settings page can be difficult to navigate & find what you're looking for
- Job approval chains would be better with additional qualifying fields so that we can segregate different areas of the business better
- The ability to edit an existing offer template in-system would improve the experience, rather than having to edit offline and upload a whole new version.
Love it
- Outlook integration
- user functionality
- Autosaves summaries when you dont click submit
- I would like to see the reporting change a bit so that a recruiter's name stays with candidate's offer so we can track what recruiter hired who. (when you change the recruiter on the REQ it names that recruiter for all the hires and offers)
- Stronger LinkedIn integration
- I would like to see an option for noting a role can be remote but either in a single state or certain states
Amazing end to end recruitment tool
- Sourcing candidates
- Tracking progress
- Scheduling interviews
- Integration with Oracle HRM
- UI for filtering could be more intuitive
- Sort by feature could have more enhanced options
Regarding less appropriate- none.
SmartRecruiters--a great applicant tracking software!
- Applicant tracking--we can add applicants to the database and add them to available jobs.
- We can add documents and comments to an applicant's profile and view them as and when required.
- This offers great mobility and we can do this as a team to choose our team members.
- SmartRecruiter's integration with other platforms is quite a hassle--it needs to be smoother.
- The job posting on the platform doesn't yield great results.
Good starting place for an ATS
- ATS that can be customized
- Integration with LinkedIn
- Ready availability of a careers page with an application portal
- More flexibility in designing the careers page
- Ability to add application widget to company website instead
Great Job Posting and Application Tool
- Job Referrals - can easily refer others to a job posting and view the status
- Job Postings - can easily search for job openings and read job description and criteria
- Application online - Can easily apply for the job directly and see who the hiring manager and hiring recruiter is
- Log in - sometimes difficult to log in if [the] password was forgotten
- Email Notifications - would be great to add email notifications for every status change after applying for the job, currently would need to log in to see updates
SmartRecruiters is easy to use
- User friendly
- Multiple ways to complete a task
- Easy to communicate
- Monthly/quarterly training
- Easy reporting tools
- Task reminders
- Easy to use
- Can do tasks multiple ways
- Easy to communicate with the candidates and other staff members within the organization
- Tracking Candidate Data at one place
- Managing recruiters data in one Dashboard
- Can get single individual report at just one click
- Made recruitment easy using smart recruiters
- User Interface is very attractive and we can use it easily
- Not having feature of referral data, who has referred
- Another problem is that in [the] emails section it shows 'company name' field will show as Smartrecruiters vs. the name of our agency that will make confuse to [candidates]
- Major problem of this is that it does not support api in the free version
SmartReview of SmartRecruiters
- Easy to navigate, clean interface.
- Good communication with recruitment and hiring managers.
- Candidate rating system.
- Easy to book interviews with candidates and hiring managers
- Connection to Microsoft Teams
- Adding a functionality where it is possible to parse a resume via Outlook.
- When a candidate applies to more than one role and is hired to one role the rest of the applications should be eliminated so he/she doesn't remain available.
- Address input in the profile section.
- Sending job postings to other social media/job aggregators for free.
What works well with smartrecruiters is that they are always listening to their clients' needs and updating their app to suit our needs.
SmartRecruiters is an ATS Worth Investigating
- Organization - SmartRecruiters is not so busy that I cannot easily tell what I am looking at. Everything is easy to navigate and follow intuitively.
- Workflow - SmartRecruiters allows me to set up logical connections to automate subsequent fields in job creation. This aids in accuracy of job creation to match our payroll system, plus makes the process of creating a new requisition/ad faster.
- Approvals - Approvals of job requisitions and offers could not be simpler.
- Customization - There is very little that cannot be customized and/or branded to fit my organization's needs, including connecting to my other business platforms.
- Reporting - There are several fields that are not easily reported on in SmartRecruiters. They have made some significant improvements, but there are still inaccessible fields in the reporting tool that would help me avoid using another service to build my reports.
- Posting Partners - SmartRecruiters has made recent changes in their contracts with high visibility platforms like LinkedIn and Indeed which may not fit with what I am trying to do or what I have done in the past.
- Offer Templates - Creating a good looking offer template that goes to the recipient exactly the way it looks when I built it is nearly impossible. The import mechanism only accepts .doc (but really wants a .doc created in LibreOffice if you want spacing and paragraphing to work perfectly). In short, there is a lot of guessing to getting offer letters just right, unless you want a plain text offer letter (and who does?).
A great choice for helping small and large teams grow
- Candidate page collects feedback, interview notes, and resume all in one place
- Integrated email management keeps all communications together
- Feedback form makes it easy for hiring panels to discuss observations
- UI is not very snappy and sometimes is slow to move from candidate to candidate
- More canned responses in form emails
- More focus on keeping initial screening questions in one place
