I've really enjoyed using Hirehive as an individual contributor. It's got a great user experience on the recruiter side while also creating a strong candidate experience. The interface is intuitive and easy to understand, with strong customization options in almost every area of the platform so the entire system can be set it up for how your team best operates. At the individual level too, customization options allow you to work as you do best - I can create my own private email templates, etc. On the candidate side, a simple process to submit an application is important when considering capturing talent. The Hirehive team has reliably provided support, updates, resolved any bugs quickly, and has been very receptive to feedback from our team.

Pros

\- Really great interface and UI: very clean looking, easy to visually navigate, friendly enough for anybody to jump into a recruiting team or into a specific requisition and clearly know exactly what's going on. - Strong customization: you can create templates for emails scalable across your entire team or private to yourself, with variables such as candidate name / job title that make it easy to process applications without much manual input. Can schedule out emails to send in the future. Can customize specific 'buckets' to move candidates through within each requisition. Can create custom tags that stick to applicants. I've almost never run into a situation where I've felt like, "wow I wish I could do that!" as almost everything can be adjusted/customized. - Sharing friendly: can easily add people not in the system into interview invites, share profiles and resumes with them, etc. and for teammembers in the system it's even better - copy/pasting URLs work for sharing, plus a tagging system. - Support: the Hirehive team is readily available for support and resolving any issues that arise - quickly too typically. Very open to our feedback and have implemented things we've suggested. - Easy candidate experience: applications are EASY to submit! one page lists the entire application - candidate's don't need to re-type their whole resume like in some systems, customizable questions. Helps capture talent and avoid losing them to a frustrating application.

Cons

\- Emails sent through Hirehive come across as a random combination of numbers and letters as the email address. This routes everything through Hirehive which is great for tracking, but can be confusing to candidates who don't understand they can reply to the email, or just end up in spam. - Candidates can re-apply to the same role repeatedly.

Excellent - the client support is fantastic - the team is responsive and as a long-time user (I've implemented in 3 workplaces over the years), I can see that suggestions made have been implemented.

Pros

It's easy to use and quick to get started. As a 1 person team, it keeps the hiring process clear.

Cons

I genuinely can't think of something I dislike or doesn't work for my needs.

Very good, helps a lot to organize recruiting activities.

Pros

Possibility to share Notes and make them restricted in case of need.

Cons

Non-existing category of reviewers category who don't see the Notes (peers). Non-existing possibility to move a candidate from different Hire Hive account (country). Non-existing possibility to hide candidates that I don't want to see. Too few colors to distinguish between different types of statuses.

I believe the experience with HireHive is good so far. I would like to be able to manage HireHive through my mobile phone. Release an App would be very important. With a few improvements in the platform, I believe Hire Hive will be the best choice for candidate tracking and recruitment management for my business. Thank you for your support so far, Kevin. I really appreciate it.

Pros

1- The customer service is very good, promptly responding to our queries, and genuinely dedicated to helping us and solving our difficulties in using Hire Hive. 2- AI-to write job posts. 2- Easy to track and control applications. 3- Possibility to advertise in many places and multilingual. 4- Application Form - good tool 5- Careers page 6- Hiring Team

Cons

1- Advertisements - My advertisements are not reaching out to the public that I need. 99% of applications are coming from my social media posts. Instagram and Facebbok. I was told that I need to modify my adverts in order to be visible on the jobs board, Indeed, etc. But I do not know the criteria. Would be good if we had a direction or autocorrection when the system could identify errors that will not be acceptable in Indeed, and other job boards, for example. In my resume, I would like to write down a job post that would be posted and accepted on multiple and multilingual job platforms at once. We have no time to write a job post and track if it is visible on the job board. For my type of business. I would like to be able to select the countries I would like to advertise, the language specific for each country, and the region or cities of the country I would like to reach. Because at the moment, I am sure the adverts are not showing to the public what I need. 2- Sharing candidate's profile: I would like to be able to share with my clients a short profile of my candidates besides a copy of their video clips. Set up a short profile of the candidates to share specific pieces of information about candidates ( not a full profile). For example show only his first name, date of birth, marital status, city where he lives, job applied for, functions and skills, years of experience, avoiding full name, and contacts. 3- Inbox emails: two things: First: Responding to emails through my email account, it does not show in the Hire Hive platform. There was a lack of information when many emails were exchanged. Second: I would like to feel safe on deleting an email in my email account so that it would not be deleted on Hire Hive. Because I prefer to have everything in control through Hire-Hive.

within the last two years I witnessed several improvements. Appreciate. In order that I highly can recommend it you need to work on the "cons", especially reporting :-)

Pros

\*the overview of stages and the sub-status within the status \*GDPR is covers and anonymity automatized \*different user rights and setting - this is great and really flexible! \*look and feel of job list (this covers our Corporate Branding Identity) \*filter possibilities of job list \*the notes section and that you can now have a layout \*the notification possibility in the note section

Cons

\*reporting, facts and figures \*no Corporate Identity in e-Mails (wish look and feel set up functions like in Outlook Mails (Font size, color, font type, bulleted lists in CI design....) at the moment it looks unprofessional \*no attachments on default basis \*it does not show how old an application is ("applied 14 days ago.. would be cool to see that) \*the history does not show the complete history (sent e-Mail, made a commend, ... this is missing)

HireHive is simple to use, affordable, and intuitive. It enables me to manage candidates, evaluate them, invite them to interviews, and keep track of all of our interactions in one place. Customer service is top-notch.

Pros

They are concerned with the UX for both recruiters and candidates. It allows us to evaluate the technical background and observe the candidate's communication style. It is a user-friendly platform that enables quick and visual management of the candidates. I enjoy how simple it is to get started; with only a few clicks, your job can be published.

Cons

The mobile version of the platform can be better. They should also create additional pre-boarding and onboarding tools, in my opinion.
