Paradox Conversational ATS vs. Linkedin Recruiter

While my company is not in the high volume hiring space, it appears to be built very effectively to support high volume hiring positions and companies, reducing recruiting efforts around the initial stages of the screening process. The paradox is good at quickly integrating into your Mail Server System (like Outlook) to get their scheduling product up quickly as a baseline.

I can manage candidates from the search to moving them to projects to messaging in one place, which makes it a more streamlined and efficient process. If a candidate does not respond to an outreach message from my LinkedIn recruiter mailbox, I can then send a connection request and a message directing them, to the recruiter message.

• The scheduler is my most favorite part of Recruiter. Super easy and organized to use.
• It also can integrate with my applicant tracking system when and if I hire from LinkedIn Recruiter.
• The fact that you can see an applicants full profile gives more information than just a resume when selecting candidates to interview.

• UI - Their UI is very mobile-focused; we are not a mobile-first company when it comes to our candidate's experience. It would be great if the experience was just as seamless and welcoming for the desktop as it was for mobile.
• Adding interviewers is not intuitive; it usually is a pain point for new users.

Incentivized

• For some reason, whenever I click "View in Recruiter" it takes me to the project summary screen instead of that candidate's profile in Recruiter
• It would be nice if candidates got automatically moved to the appropriate stage when an action is taken (ie "Contacted" after sending them a message)

LinkedIn Recruiter has the largest reach globally. I mean, if you're not on LinkedIn, do you even exist? ;) It is the only real game in town for one-stop-shopping for candidates. The service is premium, and so is the price. However, there is nothing that I'm aware of in the market that can compete.

Incentivized

• Refined search for the appropriate candidates.
• Emails sent are not sure to be delivered as there is no notifications.
• Not worth the amount spent in getting the service.
• Contact information unavailable to get in touch.
• Limits in the daily use of InMail.
