Codility vs. HackerRank vs. ICIMS Hire

Planning an Exam Scheduling and running the exam Taking the exam Assessing the exam results All done for remote candidates. While working remotely from home during the pandemic many managers found it harder to examine techie talents. Right after when the market started to boil and competition for talent rose, we all tried ways to make it easier for talents, so remote exams become more common and friendly. The ROI, while not always quantified, is in candidate experience, and hiring manager satisfaction as per recruiting talents.

It's an excellent platform for individuals who want to practice coding, improve their problem-solving skills, and enhance their programming knowledge. Organizations used this platform to hire. you can practice coding on the platform and strong your logical part but can't provide you with the experience of a live project where you build something for the real world.

iCIMSis is really good in managing high-volume federal recruitment where visibility into each stage of the hiring process is essential. Changing candidate statuses (e.g., referred, interviewed, selected) provides clear insight into pipeline progress and helps coordinate across multiple hiring managers.

• 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.

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.

We just love iCIMS. Our hiring managers love iCIMS. I give it a 9 because some hiring managers do not have to use it as regularly and need reminders on what to do. It really improved our experience with our ATS overall and I wouldn't want to work in any other system in my job.

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.

We can think of no dissatisfaction with our daily use of iCims, involving its response time to commands or incompatibility with any other software we presently use.

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.

I wasn't involved with the implementation. It was before my time

This was the best that integrated with our TA system (Greenhouse) and we got positive recommendations. At a time we considered other talent acquisition systems, such as Success Factors, the integration was insufficient. Other than that, the talent acquisition Director was bios, based on previous experience, so as IT, we didn't have much of discovery or selection to make.

Though both are used as teaching mediums, hacker rank may be slightly better for beginners and is more generalized than the alternatives that would focus on just one aspect of computer science. However, they are not as large in terms of content as other products

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.

iCims is currently pretty good and the best TAS for us at our stage of growth - but further improvement and enhancements will only help make it even better.

• We implemented iCIMS Talent Cloud right before the pandemic. The pandemic created the most difficult recruitment environment ever. I cannot say that iCIMS Talent Cloud has helped us realize any advantageous success in this battle we are fighting. It gets the job done, but we have realized anything like filling jobs faster or having resources within iCIMS Talent Cloud to allow us to attract candidates differently. Status quo, I guess.
