SkillSurvey, now part of the iCIMS Talent Cloud vs. StorySlab

SkillSurvey really is great for reference checks and how to communicate with the contacts provided. It's a great way to easy view the reports, ensure that someone is not filling out their own reference information, and being able to contact passive candidates that have interest in your organization. The templates are easy to generate once you use them a couple times.

I would recommend the app to another colleague if they were only going to manage 1-2 brands or channels. I believe in typical Eastman fashion, we had one idea of how we were going to use StorySlab and now a few years later our vision has changed. Items are starting to get cluttered.

• It is very easy to use, so we don't have to spend time training others how to process reference checks.
• SkillSurvey seems to gather many more responses than other vendors used. This is great because it stops us from having to physically call additional references.
• We're able to gather leads from the references who complete the link and opt to be contacted by a recruiter. In the HR/recruitment world, this is seen as free leads!

We use Marcom Central for one brand. They do not have a mobile app or mobile capabilities, which is unfortunate. We also use it as an e-commerce site for our customers to log on to as well.

• We're able to collect more references, which allows us to clear candidates to start their jobs quicker.
• The additional leads collected are sent to recruiters who are then able to have more candidates to reach out to for potential future employment.

• Positive- we took the responsibility off of reps to keep updated materials.
• Positive- easy to use.
