### "Applicant Stack Review"

March 18, 2016

3.5

Pros

Takes the application process out of my hands, saving me time to run my business, and allows our job posting be to broadcast to multiple sources. The screening process also saves me additional time by ranking the applicants based upon an assessment that has been personalized for the type of employee I wish to hire.

Cons

The website is not very user friendly. I am still unable to figure out how to edit the auto-generated e-mails, and have given up looking for the answer.

### "User friendly and easy to use!"

March 10, 2016

4.5

Pros

This is extremely easy to implement and easy to use. Although it doesn't have some of the extra features offered by other systems, it certainly meets all major needs.

Cons

Reporting could be slightly more customizable. Also, I wish a customized application was more easily creatable without going through Applicantstack.

### "We use Applicant stack to house all of our applications. General Mngr"

March 22, 2016

5.0

Pros

Single point entry and communication tracking ability with applicants

Cons

When running reports such as the new hire report, it will only pull up those applicants that were hired and applied within the same trim frame set. EX. New hires for the month of March. If they applied in Feb, they do not show up in this report.

### "ApplicantStack is a great product"

October 12, 2018

4.0

The software helps us to save time when hiring an employee and walks the employee through what needs to be complete.

Pros

This software has simplified the hiring process for us and made it a breeze. What we get for the price we spend is great.

Cons

Sometimes the employee fills out one form and thinks that was it. I don't think this is a software problem though.

### "So many features"

October 24, 2018

4.0

Pros

Applicant Stack has lots of features when it comes to interviewing, planning and hiring your staff.

Cons

Because of all of the features, your organizers need to be well versed in the utilities available for applicant stack. Take some time to look at everything you can do so you get the most out of the tools provided.

### "I love ApplicantStack. I can see and maneuver all applicants with ease. "

June 8, 2018

5.0

Being able to maneuver applicants and discover potential applicants through talent pool

Pros

Being able to see who attempted to fill out an application in the talent pool. The automatic email responses is a plus as well.

Cons

Sometimes I cannot see that there is a duplicate application until I later look up the applicant. I wish there was a notification for when an applicant is sitting in a certain category for a long time.

Thank you for writing a review about ApplicantStack. The idea you mentioned about highlighting a candidate that has been sitting in a stage too long is something we've talked about in development. We should see that in the future.

### "Reporting makes the difference"

April 23, 2021

5.0

As a small, technology-focused company, our hiring is limited and when we do hire, we need specific skills and experience. ApplicantStack delivers good candidates and EEOC tracking at a price that is reasonable given our limited use of the product. Of the companies we found that met our needs, ApplicantStack was the one that seemed most focused on listening and delivering.

Pros

The software is easy to use and easy to get started with. The support has been great. We have gotten excellent returns for our highly technical positions, which is a pleasant surprise.

Cons

We had a lot of trouble finding any candidates for an accounting assistant position. We were very surprised by that as it is one of the least specialized positions we have. I am not entirely certain it was the software but being able to get help analyzing problems like that would be helpful. Not really a con so much as a room to be even better.

4.0

Pros

Great way too save time posting/managing on multiple job boards

Cons

Some of the workflows/UX choices in the application are nonintuitive. For example: Editing a job posting - way too many clicks. Cannot edit the posting as a whole, have to navigate thru many screens.

March 18, 2016

Coming from placing candidates names in a spread sheet and attempting to track the hiring process manually, this is leaps and bounds above what we were doing. It is accurate and it runs all of the reports that used to drive us crazy.

March 22, 2016

5.0

Pros

The product brings applications from all of our job boards, employment web sites and media sites into one source.

Cons

When computing the Hire Percentage, the product looks at the applicants' created date which may not be within the same month of the hired date. This brings the percentage down.
