Hiring just got a whole lot easier!

Use Cases and Deployment Scope

We have a robust seasonal staff that we hire new every year. This can be as many as 200 hires a year, many of those being return seasonal employees but a large number being brand new employees. Conducting background checks can be an arduous process as well as the many hours spent interviewing candidates. Checkster makes this process far easier and allows us more time to find ideal candidates without having to work through a lot of the smaller issues that often weight us down in the process.

Pros

  • Decentralized input throughout the hiring process
  • User friendly access module that our entire staff can collaborate with
  • Outstanding detailed reports that we are able to combine with our candidate jackets

Cons

  • Probably not ideal software if you have very low turnover or are not hiring on a regular basis
  • While the reports are outstanding, there are not a lot of options available for customization
  • The learning curve is a bit steep, especially if you do not have a full-time Human Resources professional within your organization

Likelihood to Recommend

Checkster is best suited for organizations that hire more than 100 applicants a year. For organizations with high turnover, this is an outstanding way to weed out candidates early in the process and make more room for sound decision making with current hires. Organizations with seasonal and or hourly staff would benefit greatly from this application.

Use Cases and Deployment Scope

We use Checkster to run reference checks when requested by our clients. We also use it for internal hires as well. We used to personally call each and every reference check which took up a lot of our time and energy, and we were looking for a way to outsource this task Checkster does just that, plus it creates a neat and organized report to summarize the findings of the reference check.

Pros

  • It requires extremely minimal effort to start a reference check.
  • It is really user friendly.
  • It provides an easy to understand report that summarizes the findings of the reference check and overall themes.

Cons

  • Nothing! We love Checkster

Likelihood to Recommend

We use Checkster whenever we need to run any external reference checks for our clients or are hiring for our own organization. It's super simple to use, and it does all the work for you. Even if you need to remind someone to fill out a reference check, they have a button you can click that includes a pre-written template to send, and all you have to do is click a button to send it. If you personally want to talk to references, Checkster isn't for you, but if you want a streamlined process for running reference checks, Checkster is an incredible platform!
