Reason for choosing Glider MSP recommended Review Source SE Selena E. Delivery Coordinator Information Technology and Services Used the software for: 6-12 months ### "One of the best decisions we've made" December 15, 2021 5.0 Overall, our business loves using Glider.AI and we plan on continuing such usage moving forward. Pros The ability to cross check identities and watch the assessment playbacks has proven incredibly useful. We have caught multiple bait and switch candidates, which would have been otherwise overlooked. By having this feature, we have saved our company quite a good amount of money. The overall program is very user friendly. Cons I feel that while this software is user friendly, there are multiple times we run into errors with certain question types we need or tools that cannot be implemented or added into our assessments, but they clearly have them listed as possible options to pick from... Reason for choosing Glider Glider.AI seemed the most user friendly, hands-on and the customer support and trainings were an added benefit. Review Source DC Dhruv C.

We have been able to weed out mediocre candidates and it helps us in presenting the right talent to our clients. This also helps in shortening the hiring cycle for our clients. Pros All the features ranging from Assessments, Screening Bot as well as Screening helper tool, Interview tool. Ability to build and customize tests for IT as well as behavioral skills. The in-built artificial intelligence of the tool that captures every minute detail wherever there is any red flag. Proctoring capabilities, candidate search capabilities, integration with Job Diva which is our ATS as well as assessment ranking capabilities and the way Glider displays the report which is short but very useful. Cons If there can be a helper bot added for first time users which helps with navigation of the platform.

Date Engineer Computer Software Used the software for: I used a free trial ### "A 19th Century understanding of software and what were they thinking?" August 1, 2019 1.0 Horrified. Pros Some of the ideas that the company has about debugging a complex algorithm may be quite good. But the test is broken. First the 3rd question enables people to actually put programming commands into the interpreter. However questions 1 and 2 do not. Although starting with question 4, we are supposed to type into gliders make-shift "IDE" question 1 gives the user the impression that it is not about programming at all, but about reading someone else's complex lambda expression. Question 1 slaps the user on the wrist if they open a terminal window and try to type into it. It then shuts down. 10 points off. Question 2 comes up. It has a set of illegal syntax that looks like this 1. "x = X(); Of course this is an illegal statement. Why wouldn't it be? No statement is going to start with a double quote. But yet the question expects someone to actually have an answer. What was the point? In Question 1 we aren't allowed to program. In Question 2 we are given a program that makes no sense and then asked questions about it. I skipped it. Then came question 3 which was a very short simple "Double jeapordy " style "do you know this" kind of question. Finally after 2 nonsense questions and a trivial pursuit THEN glider suddenly says "great... now get out your coding pencil and figure out how I glider messed up this tree algorithm." Forget it. Cons It was designed by a software illiterate to ask programming questions and in one case A) not let the programmer run the code B) in another require that they DO run the code, and C) in a 3rd feed someone garbled nonsense.

January 16, 2018 4.0 Pros Tool work flow is simple and neat. Proctoring and candidate engagement scoring feature is very good. Customer support team is awesome. Cons I feel for technical assessment reviewing user interface should improve little bit. The employer branding section should get auto updated with company's real time updates. Review Source VR Verified Reviewer Assistant Manager- TA Computer Software Used the software for: 6-12 months ### "Glider is one of the best product to use." January 12, 2018 4.0 It's easier to filter the candidate need to call them to office has reduced. Need to for question bank is gone they have taken all the pain to keep adding questions. Pros Question Bank is what you can look at any time for any skills, they keep adding question and the AI make it sure that the questions are set according to the level set(Easy, medium and Hard). Simulator is one of the function to have. Wonderful support team they are approachable anytime for help. Of course the cost for using it doesn't burn your pocket. Cons The User interface need to be improved,for a first time user its might be difficult to use. Help section where we can refer what to do if stuck so that we don't contact support for each issue.

" January 18, 2018 4.0 Helps in hiring the best talent for the organisation. Pros The workflows are seamless, features like stack ranking of candidates, technical assessment, ability to customize these and proctoring are all very useful. These features help TA focus on the best available talent filtering the clutter Cons Glider must invest more on brand building so that there is greater awareness in the IT talent community. Currently we sometimes face issues with candidates refusing to take up assessments on glider. Once there is more awareness there will be lesser resistance on taking up assessments.
