Emily L
Director of Investor Relations
4.0

Emily: Hi, this is Emily. I'm a business strategist, and I would rate Recruiterbox a four out of five. And for more reviews, click below. Before I started using Recruiterbox, I was mostly recruiting off of LinkedIn and we weren't getting as wide of an applicant pool with various backgrounds that we were really looking for. And so Recruiterbox helped us pull in from a lot of different sources and we got a much wider range of applicants. There are a lot of reasons we ended up choosing Recruiterbox. For me, I really loved how easy it was to customize the workflow for my specific needs, all the way from screening through first interview, second interview, and ultimately through the offer stage. I also really liked that different members of the team were able to submit their feedback for each applicant after they were able to speak with them. It was really simple to get started with Recruiterbox. The platform is really intuitive and easy to use. If you're considering getting Recruiterbox, I highly recommend it, it's really helped streamline our recruiting process. So it comes highly recommended for me.

Christos L
Senior Compensation Analyst
4.0

Christos: My name is Christos. I am a senior compensation analyst, and I work for Braze Incorporated. And the headcount, I can give as well, which is 1,500 employees. Workday HCM, I would give a four out of five. Workday HCM is used for our payroll services within the company as just a generality. We use it to keep track of leave of absence, time off, bonus requests, just various different HR systems, things that we need. However, now we are using it to store salary bands, and that's more of where I come into play, where we're building out bands and storing them within job descriptions and job profiles within each individual employee and department. I just really enjoy the user-friendliness of the platform. It's really easy to navigate between the landing pages. Even for the compensation team, we have our comp dashboard, which allows us to pull this various reports that we're looking for, so that's very helpful and intuitive. But even as a user of just even being an employee of the company, it's very easy to go through my compensation, my pay history, my pay stubs, my bonus cycles, even just my managerial tree. It's an easy to navigate system, which I can appreciate. Especially if someone hasn't seen it before, it's easy to teach. I'm not necessarily the systems expert when it comes to loading in data and whatnot, but we do use a separate system for our comp cycles, which I understand can happen in Workday. However, from my experience, the reason why it wasn't a five out of five is just the way that the two systems read off each other. For me, Workday, even though it's intuitive when it comes to loading data, it's very fickle in certain circumstances since I've used it for the last three years, and I would just like to see a little bit more improvement in being able to be more modified towards these new systems that we're using, like the AQMS and the Oracles. I just found it rather difficult to... It's been the same for a while. I'd like to see a little bit more uplift when it comes to the loading of data. However, with that being said, I know there's room for improvement just from the platform's perspective on that, from a system side.
