Electrical/Electronic Manufacturing Used the software for: ### "The Applicant Manager" June 10, 2014 4.0 Pros They were easy to work with and executed on our requests very quickly and accurately. The product itself is easy to use and has helped streamline and track our recruiting process immensely. Cons We've been using it for only a few months and still have yet to learn the tricks and shortcuts, so at this point, there is nothing we don't like about the product; there are just things we don't know about it yet. Review Source ND Nancy D. Philanthropy Used the software for: ### "10 Thumbs up!" February 25, 2014 5.0 Pros I love that the software is very easy to use and intuitive. It has exactly what I need as a recruiter but is not over the top with bells and whistles that I would never use. I like how they listen to customer feedback and incorporate what they can into each release. Cons Sometimes I can't view resumes in Explorer. There is a glitch in the system that hasn't been resolved. Review Source CB Craig B. Program Coordinator Philanthropy Used the software for: 6-12 months ### "Customer Service? Exceptional" June 28, 2017 5.0 Pros We spent an hour on a Go to Meeting call with a trainer who solved virtually every one of our requests with existing capability - no custom programming needed. The call was productive, fast and easy. Review Source LF Lisa F. HR Manager Legal Services Used the software for: Less than 6 months ### "Awesome - Exactly what I was looking for!" April 30, 2015 5.0 Pros The product is super easy to use, very logical and easy to view layout - implementation was so smooth I couldn't believe it! The team answered every questions I had and was very supportive. The best product implementation I've experience in my career by far. Cons Nothing so far. I am now working for a smaller organization and we do not do heavy recruiting. I needed something easy to use, that would implement quickly, save time with data entry and record keeping and provide periodic reporting. This was exactly what I was looking for. Review Source JM Julie M. Mechanical or Industrial Engineering Used the software for: ### "TAM keeps my resumes ogranized" October 15, 2014 4.5 Pros The software is great for tracking candidates and responding to applicants.

Computer Software Used the software for: ### "Great applicant tracking solution" October 29, 2014 5.0 Pros I like the slick interface.

They have been able to do everything I have asked. I have posted several jobs and have received many applications via the free job boards. I am able to see the status of all the applications and take my time to review them. Cons So far I am happy with my entire experience.
