CareerBuilder
CareerBuilder.com is better suited for positions that have a rotating door of employees. These are the positions that you are constantly hiring for such as a CNA. CareerBuilder.com is less suited for hard to fill specialized roles. You tend to get more hits on people who are unqualified, than someone of actual interest.

ICIMS
When we partnered with ICIMS in 2018, it met our needs. 8 years later, I think ICIMS can offer more. AI needs to be incorporated into its system to better service its customers. The other recommendation is that they should offer training and communicate more often with their clients. Their dashboard should also be improved to make it easier on the eyes.

Pros
CareerBuilder
  • In my opinion, take your money for nothing in return
  • In my opinion, over promise and under deliver
  • In my opinion, deceive customers
  • In my opinion, hold you to the terms of their contract, but will not take accountability for lack of results produced
  • In my opinion, poor customer service

  • The opt-out message after the 1st text helps weed out the people who are not interested.
  • Having the ability to have templates/answers to frequent questions saved and ready to use makes it easier/faster to talk to multiple people.
  • Being able to schedule text campaigns is amazing. Every Saturday I set up my campaigns for the next week. This gives me more time to focus on other things.

Cons
CareerBuilder
  • We did not see a large amount of applications in comparison to Indeed.
  • The applications did not turn in to actual employees. We were more often than not ghosted by the candidates, even though the team followed up with them in a timely manner.

  • It is a little difficult to track internal applicants that are already active with our company.
  • Some of the fields when hiring an employee are a little difficult to change.
  • Not a sure way of identifying "eligible for rehire" within iCIMS for those that re-apply.

We would highly likely renew iCIMS Hire because it consistently delivers strong value across our recruiting process. It streamlines workflows, improves collaboration between teams, and provides reliable reporting and insights. The system is scalable, user-friendly, and continues to evolve with new features, making it a dependable long-term solution for our hiring needs.

Usability
CareerBuilder
CareerBuilder.com is average in terms of overall usability. I am able to post my positions and figure the site out. However, finding out how many additional options you are is not something easily accessible. If you don't know where to look, you may not be able to find or know how many "boosts" you have to use for the month.

ICIMS
I would give it a 9.5 rating, if allowed because despite several gaps, the user's (candidate) feedback to us has been consistently within the 9-10 range, in the past year. The tool is clean, branded and efficient for the people we recruit and who apply to our job openings. It serves our needs extremely well and I for one, wouldn't replace it at the moment, given our hiring needs. It does have some reporting misses and the Mobile app is down to a 4 - however, the results we're seeing overshadow its functionality challenges

There is always ample advance notice before the software goes down for maintenance and this is usually done at off-peak hours. As for system failures - I can't think of any that have effected us in over two years od use.

Support Rating
CareerBuilder
I have had a positive experience with CareerBuilder's support. When the platform has been updated throughout the years, CareerBuilder's account managers have always provided our team with helpful live tutorials and demonstrations to help familiarize our users with new and upcoming features, as well as older features that will no longer be offered. Support team makes themselves available on an ongoing basis.

Before pandemic and iCIMS Talent Cloud acquisitions I would give 10 without a doubt. Unfortunately, I see a strong decrease in the support model, which seems to be mainly connected with the fact that acquired companies/tools/features need to be integrated with the platform, and knowledge of newly provided services and tools were not yet incorporated fully into the support.

I would say I believe iCims online training is very good. It's informative, visually appealing, and simple in explaining all the different aspects of iCims. I also really like the new candidate onboarding, and all the other training curricula you have up to be able to inform or send out to the candidate. I like you can attach a URL link for videos as well so you can really customize the training. I feel that overall, I would like to see more. Perhaps, more robust options with the training, if that's something iCims is expanding on in the future.

WizeHire is one of the most amazing systems I've ever seen. I've continued to share their information with many, and my hope is that they take the hiring world by storm! It's easy to use, they obtain great candidates and many. They're very responsive and always there to help. They care about their clients. I strongly recommend them.

Fully available automation, lesser bad data quality, more information is gathered at the time of applicant profile creation without having the need to ask for any follow ups or additional notifications. Integrates better with Oracle, Workday and SAP than other similar systems. Service tickets are resolved faster than other vendors we worked with.

Return on Investment
CareerBuilder
  • I feel I literally gave away $5K to CareerBuilder.com with zero ROI.
  • In my opinion, CareerBuilder.com set me back financially because I had to pay another platform to do what CareerBuilder.com promised as I still needed to find qualified candidates for my clients.
  • I feel I wasted a lot of time, money, and energy with CareerBuilder.com
  • I feel CareerBuilder.com caused me and my staff months of mental frustration

  • iCIMS has had a positive impact on our recruitment efficiency and compliance tracking.
  • The improved visibility across requisitions and hiring stages has shortened our time-to-hire by about 20%.
  • Centralized documentation and audit-ready reports have helped ensure adherence to EEO and federal hiring standards.
