### "ease of implementation and useage"

July 13, 2018

5.0

Pros

Once acclimated to the system, very easy to navigate and administer. Integration with company website and with exterior websites quite beneficial.

Cons

when toggling from the Jobs page to another page and then back to the Jobs page, the jobs are reordered in chronological order rather than alphabetical by office as set up

Really love it! First software program I launch everyday when starting my day. Very user friendly.

Applicant Stack is a very easy tool to learn and adapt to. It's easy to navigate! If any problems, customer service will answer any questions or concerns promptly.

Some limitations on reports; depending on how detailed you need them.

I am not a heavy-end user with the software, but I do use it weekly.

June 7, 2018

5.0

It allows you to speak with and decide whether you would like to interview quality candidates.

Pros

I was added as a user within the last 6 months as I was placed in an HR position with Home Instead Senior Care. I use the software every day. I enjoy using this program because it is very user friendly. Simple to contact candidates.

Cons

There isn't anything that I don't like about the software. It helps you to interview quality candidates. As I stated before it is very user friendly. I enjoy using it. Nothing I can complain about.

### "The system is great! There"

April 26, 2018

4.0

Pros

The multiple locations for posting from one single source! Cloning jobs so no need to start from scratch! So many great features!

Cons

When launching a position, it would be nice not to have to rekey the location but have it pull from the location option on a previous screen. Reporting! Seems there are some kinks with it and it would be awesome to be able to print a report and feel confident it is accurate! Integration with HRIS system would also be nice so we can hire candidates from the selection pool.

### "Everything a Recruiter Needs in One Place"

October 15, 2019

4.0

Applicant tracking and compliance is the number one reason we use ApplicantStack. It is easy to use, and can support multiple users with somewhat cost effective pricing structure. Integration with job boards is a definite plus which saves time and money.

Pros

Easy to use, historical data storage helps companies maintain compliance. Candidate experience is not cumbersome. Customer service is above average with good response times. Cost effective.

Cons

Training could be improved during implementation with more "hands-on" vs. recorded videos. Once software is up and running, training should be expanded and possibly formatted in stages in addition to the helpful snapshots currently provided.

Reason for choosing ApplicantStack

Easy to use, easy to train less experienced recruiters. More cost effective that other products.

### "Review"

November 6, 2018

4.0

Pros

I like how ApplicantStack keeps track of all the documentation needed for hiring process.

Cons

I don't like how ApllicantStack now sends out automatic reference request lately I have been receiving calls inquiring reference checks by just having staff apply to a position.

### "Work with ApplicantStack daily"

May 10, 2018

5.0

Pros

I like how all the applicants are in one place. I also like how you can keep up with any feedback needed for the applicants. The fact you can move applicants from one place to another to keep track of the position applied for is great. I like how you can create task to help with scheduling interview (that cuts way back on the amount of paper wasted).

Cons

I can not think of a con with ApplicantStack at this time.

### "ApplicantStack"

December 13, 2019

4.0

Overall experience is positive, it's not stressful or hard to figure out. However, there are a lot of modern features that could be implemented.

Pros

It is very user-friendly, easy to navigate, I enjoy the texting feature as well.

Cons

I don't like how many duplicates are created in the system, We should be able to have one candidate file, and you should be able to look at their complete history in that file.

### "It is so beneficial to our organization."

June 1, 2018

5.0

Pros

I like the easy flow and navigation. I like the way you can sort it in different ways. I also like that I can email candidates saved emails directly.

Cons

Sometimes when you make a change it does not go back to the place where you were working, like if you had sorted it a certain it does not stay with the sort, it defaults back.

### "Everything you need"

May 10, 2018

5.0

It organized our resumes, and encourages us to look at past candidates for new openings. Having a folder of resumes didn't allow for that as easily.

Pros

Posting to multiple job boards by the click of a button, the search function to find skill sets, as well as notes to remind you what you thought of these candidates!

Cons

Its really good, not much I don't like about it! I would say that if we could have the same feature for attachments that we do for the resume (be able to view online vs having to download) that would be one.

December 13, 2019

I will continue to stay with this software for recruiting new candidates. Helpful for all managers to be on the same page.

Pros

I have used this for about a year very easy to post jobs and look up candidates and SUPER affordable compared to other products I looked at

Cons

Nothing really. At first we had the onboarding and the training wasn't that great

Reason for choosing ApplicantStack

really liked the demo straight to the point and had what i needed for recruiting pushing to social

April 19, 2018

4.0

Qualified candidates.

Pros

The ease with which you can set-up your questions to find qualified candidates. The ease of which you can find if they have a criminal record.

Cons

The fact that you can not see their resume along with everything else on the first page. The fact that those who have a felony do not write what the felony is for.

### "I like the new upgrades."

June 1, 2018

4.0

Pros

That it does the work for you. It's like an electronic file cabinet for applications that always you to sort any way you want.

Cons

That when you make a change and it refreshes it does not take you back to where you were. I also wish if you seatch someone by name it would show a date so you would know which one was most current.

Ease of use and many applicants delivered right to my desktop.

Pros

East to use and does about everything very expensive systems do without all the implementation and configuration cost. Easy to train people to use and be productive

Cons

I really like it! I have used Cornerstone on Demand (intense does things I will never need) and other products but this is so nice.

Tremendously helped with our hiring process!

Pros

The ability to be able to look back on past applicants with great ease. And be able to track an applicant throughout the entire hiring process.

Sometimes there are so many features, it can be overwhelming. I think it would be nice for the screen to be a little more streamlined.
