Greenhouse, Reviewed.
Greenhouse is the current tool used to assist with internal department job openings. It is used across the entire organization. I feel we could get much better use of the product. At present, it is mostly a staging site as it seems other platforms are used as well as Greenhouse.
- Track application progress
- Provides an index of job listings
- Intuitive User Interface
- User Interface could be streamlined
- Several action items within the product lead to the same spot, they are redundant.
- Not aesthetically pleasing.

Great ATS
Greenhouse is used across the organization as our applicant tracking system. We use it to schedule all interviews, review scorecards, and as a guide for debriefs on all of our candidates that we are hiring for our roles. It's a powerful tool used by everyone at our organization for many years.
- Applicant Tracking
- Interviewer Scorecards
- Streamlining Candidate Experience
- More focus on core competencies
- Better visibility about candidate lifecycles

- Difficult to navigate, implement, and validate customizations
- No customer service.
- Mobile application is not functional.

Greenhouse for internal recruiting and hiring
Our Recruiting department owns Greenhouse and each hiring manager has a log-in to review resumes and record interview notes. Each person in the company also has access to Greenhouse to refer candidates. It keeps recruiting efforts transparent and streamlined and allows the entire company to get involved in some way.
- Custom referral links for social media - I use these to advertise job postings. It is especially nice to have when there is a referral bonus on the line.
- Allows each interviewer to share interview notes between one another and allows you to rate each candidate you meet. The interface is user-friendly.
- I wish I had more control over the automated emails I receive through Greenhouse. I receive some but have not been able to configure others that would be nice. For example, an email is someone uses my referral link to apply to a job posting.

Greenhouse is the best ATS I have used in my career!
Greenhouse is primarily used by our Recruiting team as our ATS, but by design, it is also used by our entire organization. We use this to review applications, post jobs, integrate with various software, work effectively with recruiting agencies, collect feedback from interviewers, and run reports to gain better insight.
- Organization wide collaboration
- Application review with hiring managers
- Collecting feedback from interviewers
- Scorecard customization for various roles
- Sending technical assignments
- More robust reporting functionality

Organized and Efficient Employee Referral and Interview Software
Greenhouse is currently used throughout all departments to facilitate the hiring process of new candidates. It allows current employees to refer new candidates and to also quickly run through the interview process and summary. Greenhouse allows easy scheduling of interviews and keeps all candidate information organized in one place for quick review.
- Candidate referral system
- Job interview summary
- Organized job interview process
- UI/UX could be improved

Good Value for What it Costs
We use Greenhouse as an external and internal applicant tracking system. The tool is primarily used by our Recruiting team as well as Hiring Managers during the interview process. We are heavy users of the score cards functionality which is very customizable and robust. Last year we also launched the Diversity and Inclusion features.
- Score cards- very customizable and provide ability to track more tangible and objective feedback.
- Customizable offer templates- allows you to store many different offer templates that you can pick from.
- Branded look and feel.
- Integrations/API- very limited integration capabilities due to inability to store a lot of demographic information about the job that can then be passed to an HRIS with minimal manual data entry. HR still has to key in a lot of job demographic details about new hires. It would be great if Greenhouse was able to store more of this data and pass it on to other systems via integrations.
- Custom Reporting- our teams are often unable to report on certain data in a way needed at the company level for analysis and this leads to having to dump data into a BI tool so we can report on it in the specific way we need to.

Greenhouse- The Right Match
Greenhouse is a very useful software specially to track the recruiting process. It helps the recruiting staff to manage the data of the candidates. It also helps us to put the right person into right place as per the needs of the manager .It helps to put the process of recruiting in a very systematic way that one can track the process and progress .
- Different recruiting processes
- Rounds of recruitment
- Data of candidate
- Right person in a right position
- More customization is needed to add more relevant data of the candidate
- Business specific processes
- Role based interview steps

Greenhouse--Structured hiring at scale
Our talent acquisition team primarily uses Greenhouse to calibrate the hiring process so that every candidate is measured on the same parameters irrespective of any bias. One member of the hiring team is unable to see the feedback of the other members, thus making sure that the existing feedback doesn't cloud one's judgement. Each interview has a specific objective and a corresponding scorecard to assess the candidate, which makes sure that the hiring manager is making the assessment for different candidates on the same performance metrics. The final hiring decision is made after collating the feedback of the entire hiring panel, making the process more unbiased and fair for the candidates.
- Candidate scoring and assessment occurs within the system and one needs to submit the evaluation within 24 hours of the interview.
- Greenhouse comes with a scheduling tool, which helps the recruitment team coordinate with the candidate for the time slots in accordance with the hiring panel availability.
- Greenhouse provides complete control and flexibility to customize the recruitment process for different roles and positions and also integrate existing solutions like Google Meet and Zoom for video interviews, which is imperative in current pandemic times.
- There is no way to configure different access for different users
- Scheduling functionality has bugs, and very often one needs to go directly to Outlook or Google Calendar for scheduling interviews
- Pricing is on the higher side, which can prove very expensive for smaller companies

Greenhouse - An investment which is worth every penny
Greenhouse is primarily being used at our organization for hiring new talent. This is being used extensively by the entire organization to make the hiring process structured and avoid unconscious bias in hiring. Overall Greenhouse provides an interview kit for the interviewer which has everything required to conduct an effective interview at one single place like Job Description, Case study or questions to be asked, candidate's CV and finally feedback and scorecard.
It also helps to make sure that candidates are hired on merit and one interviewer is not influenced by the feedback of other interviewers.
It also helps to make sure that candidates are hired on merit and one interviewer is not influenced by the feedback of other interviewers.
- Helps make the interviews organized through the interview kits.
- Removes any bias from the process as feedback of one interviewer is not visible to others
- Supports integrations with tools like Zoom to make the entire process seamless which is essential in the new post COVID era
- No option to set reminder for the interviewer to give feedback in the defined timeframe.
- Doesn't support all the video calling platforms like Hangouts
- User interface seems to be archaic and needs to be updated

Recruitment with ease
Greenhouse is used by HR and recruiting team of the company for recruitment management. Right from job requisition to referral to hiring happens through Greenhouse. Resume shortlisting to auto movement to next step happens.
- Custom workflow for approval and review at all levels
- Meaningful alerts and status updates
- Profile tracking and referral management
- Does not have comprehensive steps post selection or rejection of candidates profile

Greenhouse Fan - My Kind of Look and Feel
Greenhouse is used as our applicant tracking system. It is used by everyone at the company to hire, interview and share job postings with their networks. We use it to collect and track applicant data, schedule interviews, collect interview feedback, generate offer letters and run reports on our hiring. It solves the business problem of being able to hire and scale our hiring practices as we grow.
- User Interface - it is nice to look at and easy to use.
- Reporting - the ease of building and pulling reports is really helpful.
- Scheduling - they've enhanced and supported easier scheduling in the tool.
- Reporting for diversity pipeline fields by job.
- Navigation when viewing candidates in a job -it takes you back to all candidates and you have to filter again.
- Capturing offline activities like texting candidates.
We use it across our entire organization to handle all aspects of recruitment, as well as move jobs internally, and recommend potential candidates. It helps keeps recruitment and talent needs/steps all in one place and provide a synchronized experience both to the potential candidate and help internal employees track that candidates journey.
- Guide candidate through hiring journey.
- Allow internal employees to search for posted jobs.
- Allow internal employees to recommend a potential candidate.

- More details on the platform when following another candidates journey (timeline etc.).

Greenhouse is the best hiring tool
Greenhouse is a really great resource for our human resources team to allow them to interact with members of different departments throughout the organization during the hiring process. It provides for a simple to use platform for all parties involved in the hiring process to communicate their thoughts and feedback on prospective candidates.
- Simple to use platform.
- Easy to communicate between departments.
- Clear and concise feedback on candidates.
- More opportunities for collaboration.
- Ability to discuss candidate feedback on the platform.
- Ease of onboarding new users to the platform.

Greenhouse Review
Greenhouse is a solid ATS in my opinion, for in-house recruiting. It isn’t efficient for staffing or consulting.
- Organization.
- Good job applicant experience.
- Integrations.
- Difficult to parse multiple candidates at once.
- Lack of high level visibility.
April 21, 2021
I strongly recommend Greenhouse
Greenhouse is a powerful recruiting tool that is used by our HR and admin team. The tool is used to simplify and create more ease for the hiring process for our team. It is a popular job posting platform so we do receive a lot of interest in positions that we use Greenhouse for.
- Integrations.
- Syncing.
- Customization.
- Job board.
- Customer support.
- Implementation.
April 20, 2021
Clean, simple - could use better visualizations
We use Greenhouse as our ATS. We also use it to help debrief and compile packets for hiring or no hire decisions.
- Applicant tracking
- Pipeline visibility
- Collaboration
- No AI
- No metrics
- Dashboard integration non existent
April 29, 2021
Greenhouse is a very solid recruitment tool!
Greenhouse is used by the whole organization as it really meets all of our needs for managing candidates and allows for us to make good decisions that impact our overall hiring strategies. It is also the best way to collaborate on our group interviews as everyone can then submit their feedback on the candidates directly after the interview for the rest of the team to see.
- Interview feedback submission possibility
- Very User Friendly
- Great reminders
- Score card feedback pretty basic
- Reports should be more dynamic
May 13, 2021
Best ATS out there!
We implemented Greenhouse about a year ago for a 40 person company, and we are now 150 employees. This has streamlined our hiring process and allow for easier hiring across multiple offices.
- User Friendly
- Customizable
- More tools for pulling data and analytics
- Would like to see some trainings for interviewers
April 22, 2021
Greenhouse is flexible for small to medium company needs; struggles with big company needs like reporting
We use Greenhouse as our primary applicant tracking system.
- Flexible integration options (for example, with Workday)
- Customizable fields and workflows (to an extent)
- Needs more robust ability to customize workflows and fields
- Needs more robust ability to preset field choices (for data consistency in reporting)
- Needs more robust reporting options for leadership and exec level reporting
April 21, 2021
A fresh data-driven approach to recruiting and hiring!
We had a great experience using Greenhouse for the complete applicant lifecycle, from recruiting to hiring to onboarding. The tool provided a seamless workflow every step of the way, and excels at clear communication and status reporting from all stakeholders. We used Greenhouse to simplify our recruiting and hiring pipeline.
- Ensuring hiring process is equitable.
- Dashboards to provide a data-centric approach to hiring goals.
- Best-in-class mobile experience.
- More integrations with 3rd party tools.
- Spam filters occasionally flag legitimate emails.
- Option for self-hosted service for heavily-regulated customers.
April 21, 2021
Greenhouse: Great Internal Job Board!
Greenhouse is the company's internal job board. All departments within the company refer to it for open listings, to get referral links, and to track referrals in the system. It's an easy place for the hiring team to point to whenever they make an announcement that there's an opening in any given department.
- Easy access to referral links
- Ability to see all department openings at one time
- Tracking system for applicants
- More intuitive interface when it comes to the menus
April 21, 2021
Greenhouse is a startup must!
Greenhouse is used across our entire organization. With our rapid growth, it is extremely valuable to have an online portal that we check when we come across a possible candidate. Referrals are huge in our growth and continued success and Greenhouse helps provide a level of transparency into available positions. It will also help you track a referral through their interview process.
- Referrals
- Interview process tracking
- Makes everyone an effective recruiter
- Updates during the interview process can be delayed
- Duplicate referrals
April 20, 2021
Greenhouse offers what we need for full cycle recruiting
We use Greenhouse as an ATS, Applicant Tracking System. Applicants through Greenhouse submit their initial application, any skills tests in the process, and any other questions we send them. Then our recruiters and hiring managers review applications and use Greenhouse to screen out unqualified people too.
- Screen out applicants based on triggers we set
- Track applicants across different stages of the process
- Manage notes from interviewers, including keeping them private when needed
- Clunky UI: sometimes there is too much information and too many options
- Customizing homepage: again, too many widgets on one page
My organization uses Greenhouse in all HR recruiting efforts including candidate screening, tracking, interviewing and hiring. Greenhouse is a great, centralized place for everyone on a hiring team to access candidate information, record notes, score candidates and more. We're also able to immediately submit whether or not candidates should be pushed through to the next stage of the hiring process. Additionally, we're able to track referrals for our own internal referral reward program.
- Usability
- Tracking
- Information inclusion
- Customizability
- Conference/video set up
