I would love if Applicant Stack had a feature were we could track the status of each applicant as we move them through in interview stage. We do this manually in excel, where we identify if we are moving them forward for 1st, 2nd, and 3rd round interviews. It would be so much easier if this was an option in the application.

Talent Acquisition Specialist Electrical/Electronic Manufacturing Used the software for: 1-2 years ### "Effective Hiring Instrument with Potential for Customization Enhancements" August 13, 2024 5.0 I've had a good overall experience with ApplicantStack. The technology has greatly expedited the hiring process by streamlining the administration of job ads, tracking of applications, and communication between hiring teams and candidates. Time has been saved and manual labor has decreased because to its user-friendly interface and automation features. Still, there are certain things that might be done better, including making the reporting tools more user-friendly and offering more customization possibilities. ApplicantStack has shown to be a useful tool in the hiring process, leading to more effective and coordinated recruiting, despite these little limitations. Pros The user-friendly layout of ApplicantStack, which facilitates a quicker and more effective hiring process, is one of my favorite features. Time is saved greatly by having the option to automate repetitive processes and modify workflows. Furthermore, the integrated communication tools facilitate communication between recruiting teams and candidates, increasing teamwork. Robust reporting options enable comprehensive insights into the hiring process, supporting data-driven decision-making. Cons The fact that some of the pre-built templates have few modification choices makes it difficult to completely customize the system to meet unique demands, which is one feature of ApplicantStack that I liked least. Furthermore, even though the reporting tool is powerful, there is occasionally a learning curve associated with it, making it difficult to fully employ. It could also be more seamless for certain users to integrate with other HR systems, as data synchronization between platforms occasionally necessitates extra effort. Review Source Response from Swipeclock August 14, 2024 Thank you for the great review and feedback Lea! ED Elizabeth D. AP.Payroll.HR Manager Hospital & Health Care Used the software for: 2+ years ### "Okay but could use some tweaks" August 19, 2024 4.0 Pros It was pretty easy to move applicants from one part of the application process to the next. Cons You couldn't just mark someone as hired unless they did the new hire portion through it as well. We had an entirely different process for new hire paperwork and it just made it a huge mess after awhile. Also didn't like that there wasn't an option to text/email directly from the system, it would make it much easier to keep track of those if there were an all in one sort of thing.
