### "Easy to track candidates. "

June 5, 2018

4.0

Pros

Able to track all my candidates and see where they are at in the hiring process. I enjoy the \`notes feature as well.

Cons

Can be hard to navigate at times. Especially if someone new is trying to learn the program. Very easy to pick up on after a while though.

5.0

Pros

Easy to read historical applications, candidate info, and position postings

Cons

Not easy to select email operations. I'd like to be able to select my work email service as the default so when I click "email" candidate" it immediately opens a familiar screen

### "Applicant stack review"

December 10, 2019

5.0

It is definitely a time saver on a lot of different levels.

Pros

I really like not having to schedule people for an interview. The applicant gets to schedule themself instead of the constant going back and forth.

Cons

I wish that as a user you can edit more things. I understand the admin can do everything but it is kinda a hassle whenever a resume comes in and it says their name is time management and you have to let your boss know to change it.

### "From Job Board Posts To New Hire Onboarding!"

December 16, 2018

5.0

Pros

ApplicantStack is an amazing platform that we've recently started using to help the process of finding new recruits, to actually bringing them on board. It's been such a struggle prior to using ApplicantStack, now we are able to see exactly where our recruits are in the hiring process and know exactly what needs to be done to move them along!

Cons

It's been a bit of a shift for our team to learn how to utilize this platform compared to what we were previously functioning with. You will definitely reduce the amounts of unnecessary paper and gaps in follow up with recruits when using ApplicantStack!

### "Review for ApplicantStack"

April 20, 2021

4.0

Pros

I like the features the applicant stack has such as being able to pass on workers to their second choice location and the email triggers that accompany each stage that automatically gets sent out to students.

Cons

The format can be a little messy sometimes. It is hard to search for a specific student and the user interface can show filters in easier-to-access places.

### "Applicant Stack Review"

December 16, 2019

4.0

We have just started our marketing campaigns about 8 months ago. This software has been beneficial in getting the program off the ground. It is very simple to use and their templates are extremely useful. Something I would like to see improvement on are support tools for reporting.

Pros

This software is easy to use and makes your life easier when you can schedule emails to go out - that's the best part.

Cons

I wish you could send yourself reminders on when emails were going out - or reminders on how long it has been since you sent emails out. This would be beneficial for reporting.

### "Great Way to Recruit"

June 1, 2018

5.0

Pros

This program has a great way to get everything set-up for a company. It allows individuals a way to get the word out about your company. When setting everything up it is sure to be easy as it walks you through the different pieces.

Cons

To sign-up for an account takes a bit. Much like using any new software it does take some time getting used to it.

Great applicants. Easy to use.

Pros

Easy to navigate. Always posts ads close to the top of the job boards. We have great applicants coming through who are qualified for the job.

Cons

Hi Stephanie! Thank you for taking the time to write a review about ApplicantStack. Thank you for the suggestions. I will forward them to our development team. BTW - you can paste a job description in the listing box but we recommend using the paste as text and then add in any formatting via ApplicantStack's formatting tools. This will ensure that your jobs will look the best across multiple platforms as well as the different job board.

### "It has given me the ability to track all applicants and the stage of each one. "

April 19, 2018

5.0

ApplicantStack keeps track of every application that has come into UDK. It also keeps track of the conversations between UDK and the applicant.

Pros

I like being able to see the history of each applicant and what has been put into the system. This allows me to review what was put in prior to me taking over.

Cons

There isn't anything I don't like about applicantstack. I use it daily to review the candidates and haven't had any issues.

May 31, 2018

3.0

Speed.

Pros

Easier to use than Lever for sure, easy to set up stages and self assessment tests, resume previews work well.

Cons

Feels complicated at times, poorly thought out tasks, if you complete feedback for a candidate, outside of a given task, it doesn't count it and keeps spamming you with emails, even though you left feedback after the call/interview.

Hi Josip! Thank you for taking the time to write a review about ApplicantStack. We are disappointed that you find some items complicated. Please contact support so we can assist you. Also, we provide weekly training webinars as well as a help center full of articles and videos. That is correct, if you assign yourself a task, with email reminders and do not complete it, you will receive a reminder email. It is however easy to turn off the reminders if you already added feedback another way. Please contact support so we can assist you.

### "Applicant Stack Review"

October 12, 2018

5.0

ApplicantStack was a tremendous help for us as we are a large, community mental health organization with a small but mighty human resource department. As a program coordinator, I began receiving applications immediately without delays through applicantstack as opposed to a human handoff and I am also more capable of quickly responding to candidates. As a team across various departments, we are much more efficient at coordinating interviews for candidates interested in multiple jobs within our large, non-profit organization.

Pros

ApplicantStack is super easy to use and helps me organize my hiring process for multiple jobs!

Cons

I have found no issues when using applicant stack. It took me a while to stop clicking the job title on the home screen and instead switch to the candidate tab to see applicants, but I have it down now.
