LiveHire Reviews
Pros
We are starting to see strong benefits in reducing our time to fill roles, with better quality talent, at reduced costs.
Great product, easy to use and we're supported by a bunch of heroes for whom no task is too much.
The ease of integration with other innovative tech such as Xref & Enboarder has been a huge win for the TA team, reducing the steps involved & time to complete the hiring process.
Overall, my experience with LiveHire has been very good. They have a very well thought recruitment system in place and an excellent platform for talent pooling candidates and connecting with them.
Cons
Irrespective of pedigree, dogs require an awful lot of work whereas a cat simply gets on with the business of being a cat. Livehire is a cat and with a little bit of feeding, it just purrs away.
There is limited functionality between LiveHire and outlook.
If the candidate doesnt claim his profile there will be no option to send SMS. After claiming profile there is no edit option to make any changes.
Also, our project manager for the implementation was very inexperienced which made a frustrating implementation process.
"Intuitive & Proactive ATS+CRM really delivers genuine results - more so than any other ATS I've used"
Overall: We are starting to see strong benefits in reducing our time to fill roles, with better quality talent, at reduced costs. We're also finding the talent are highly engaged within the platform and our hiring managers love the custom configured visibility of where things are up to for their vacancies.
Pros: It's simple to use, the UI UX is incredible, and it does more than just a traditional reactive recruitment system. You can honestly start hiring more proactively via a curated talent community of people that are wanting to work for your business. Easy communication via unique 2way SMS where candidate responses land within the candidate profile - making engaging with talent so much easier. Inviting candidates to job opportunities via talent pools is so easy, it's reducing our reliance on Agencies and Job Boards.
Cons: The only negative part to mention is that some adhoc features are still in development. But that hasn't stopped us in any way - it's more the nice to have features like automated interview scheduling - but it's in the pipeline and what I have found is that the product roadmap is delivered on - and the feature rollouts are exceptional and done fortnightly.
"LiveHire Review - Hitachi Construction Machinery "
Overall: Overall, my experience with LiveHire has been very good. They have a very well thought recruitment system in place and an excellent platform for talent pooling candidates and connecting with them.
Pros: This system is very easy to use and provides an excellent snapshot of a candidates profile, the other thing I like about this system is the ease how we can communicate with candidates via text and email, however the best feature of this system is the ability to match candidates to the job before we post the job, this feature has saved us time and money in finding the right candidate.
Cons: I think the area where this system can improve is by providing the ability to produce reports on demand. There is a useful dashboard, however, sometimes our department do need some ad-hoc reports which we cannot produce via the system.
"Easy to use"
Pros: Overall easy to use. Also like the analytics feature.
Cons: Sometimes has some technical hiccups, take a while to load.
"Ease of setup, responsive and agile support team"
Overall: Excellent. Great product, easy to use and we're supported by a bunch of heroes for whom no task is too much.
Pros: Talent Pooling, Live Market searching, Communications capability within the system.
Cons: inability to edit a candidates profile, but i understand the reason for the approach.
"A game changer for our organisation"
Overall: LiveHire has completely changed the candidate experience for our organisation, and has allowed me time to step back and ensure we're hitting strategic targets etc, without ever faulting on the CX. I couldn't recommend it highly enough.
Pros: LiveHire is incredibly intuitive, meaning that the change management I have needed to go through to introduce the software to our organisation has been minimal. It is easy to follow and keeps the candidate experience front of mind at all times, meaning I can rest easy knowing I can't miss anything.
Cons: Hard to say - everything has been incredibly positive so far. Perhaps the spreadsheet used during implementation wasn't entirely clear, however the support is A1 so I've never had an issue.
