Icims is our current ATS. This system is used across the country by our recruiting team and hiring managers.
  • Overall, it is pretty self explanatory. Which makes it easier when you have users across the country, beginners to advanced. Moving the candidate from one "bin" to another does make sense. You can move candidates individually or in groups, which speeds your time.
  • The communicating piece - creating and editing templates to use in mass emails is easy.
  • The ability to create specific job related questions for each individual position is helpful.
Cons
  • The search capabilities needs some work. It is not user friendly at all. You want to be able to "pipeline" and this system hasn't developed something that makes sense or is easy to navigate. This is there biggest area to work on.
Search capabilities! Depending on the size of the organization using this system, that may not be a huge factor. However, nationwide, large corporations, this could be a pain point.

iCIMS is being leveraged across the organization as a Talent Acquisition applicant tracking system.
  • Binning of candidates and the process flow is seamless and logical.
  • iCIMS collects relevant data and allows for robust reporting.
  • Good integration with job posting sites or aggregates like TalentBrew, LinkedIn, etc.
Cons
  • The search-ability of candidates is clunky and requires extensive training to become proficient. I estimate that to become fully proficient in searching tools requires a few hours, but also significant practice.
iCIMS is well suited for collaborating with hiring managers. The CRM capacity is basic, but helpful.

iCIMS ( I C that I aM Successful) with the iCIMS ATS!

We "FusionStorm" are using iCIMS for the recruiting and onboarding process. We also use it for the background, application and posting abilities.
  • Allows us to post from one site to several
  • Allows us to track where we are with our requisitions and candidates
  • Allows our hiring managers access to review candidates
Cons
  • I need to take more classes from iCIMS as I am not utilizing EVERY aspect of its abilities
I like the new "video cover letter" addition; however, we have not implemented it yet.

Great solution for organizations hiring at scale!

Galileo Learning is a multi-site summer camp that operates at scale serving dozens of locations in multiple states. Because the camp operates only during the summer, there is a high-volume recruitment and selection process that is in high gear from December through late May every year. During these months, a team of <10 collaborates to source, screen, hire, and onboard over 2000+ staff. There is simply no way to manage an operation at this scale without a well designed applicant tracking system that can support a complex, multi-stage process.
  • Easy to use pipeline interfaces that allowed me as a senior team member to allocate applicants to our team of screeners in a sleek, intuitive fashion.
  • Good support for email templates, our communications looked and felt like they came from our organization rather than clunky automated forms with iCIMS branding plastered over it instead of our own.
  • Lots of features used by our onboarding team to manage documentation process for more candidates than any human would be able to keep track of using memory alone.
Cons
  • Occasional technical bugs and outages, without a strong customer service presence. It'd be nice to see the company invest more in taking care of their enterprise clients.
  • We had to use a 3rd party scheduling software to manage our interview calendars, due to some limitations in functionality on the iCIMS platform having to do with managing interviewer availability.
I would absolutely recommend the software to anyone hiring at scale. If the volume of your hiring is beyond the power of the human brain to manage, this is essential software. For organizations only hiring a handful of roles at a given time, there may be more affordable/straightforward software that would do the job just as well.

We use ICIMS both on the Mosaic and Acosta Corporate recruiting side, as well as for any full time field hires. If we hire them or pay them in ADP vs. Ceridian, we are using it to hire that candidate. The rest of our recruiting team for field hires uses Taleo. ICIMs works much more quickly than Taleo in terms of big data, and the visual/buckets set up (resume review, send to EBI, send to ADP) corresponds best to our on boarding process. It also integrates a bit as a CRM as it allows us to track our communication with the client teams by sending correspondence through it (reviewing candidates, setting up drug screens etc.).
  • Integration with job distributors - scraping to outside job boards.
  • Integration with other on-boarding systems- ADP, EBI etc.
Cons
  • Resume preview - would LOVE a feature that allows me to hover over resumes and preview them more easily.
  • Workflow progression - too many click thrus with adding notes, etc., vs. going right to the next step.
It's well suited for our corporate hires - our field hires are a bit too large to incorporate into the system, as that many resumes in buckets seems to get a bit clogged up. I also think integration with "turning on" job board scraping could be easier, but I know our team has elected not to take advantage of this piece.
