CareerSiteBuilder vs. SilkRoad Performance

If you have a job opening or a high turn around rate like we do. (we are a staffing company) [CareerSiteBuilder] is a great place to to start. It is affordable and reaches hundreds of potential employees. When you search resumes sometimes when you enter keywords you have to play around with it to find the right phrasing. Its not difficult just time consuming.

No, we just had a bad experience unfortunately.

Incentivized

• Search features.
• Quantity of resumes.
• The format that the candidates information is presented.

Incentivized

• Unfortunately our experience was very poor, so I don't have anything for what they do "particularly" well.

Incentivized

• There are some missing functionalities that could be addressed such as fusing resume search and recruitment edge.

Incentivized

• Transparency about the capabilities of their system. We would have never chosen WingSpan had we had a clear picture of the limitations of their system.
• Ease of use - as an administrator we found it to be difficult to work with. Of course, improvements may have been made in this area since we used it last.
• The user interface could use some updating.

Affordable, quick, easy, super user friendly, well known, offers a large variety of job seekers[.]

Incentivized

We used Cvent following our WingSpan experience. It worked out much better and had more capability than WingSpan.

Incentivized

• We have been able to present MORE candidates to our clients in the staffing industry, and therefore fill more positions.
• We are able to find MORE QUALIFIED candidates using search features, to in turn fill more direct-hire positions.
• We have to pay or Career Builder for thousands of people, so that takes away from ROI.

Incentivized

• I feel it set us back a bit, and also caused us to lose credibility with our management team after it turned out to be a "failed experiment."
• We have gone back to a manual system of doing goal setting that works better for us.
