We use The Resumator to post open job descriptions to our website and free job boards, accept inbound applications, screen resumes, message candidates, and track the hiring process for every department across the organization. It streamlines our entire hiring workflow and allows us to collaborate on evaluating and selecting candidates. Without The Resumator, we'd still be manually posting job openings, sorting resumes, and struggling to track applicants through the hiring process, which is made especially challenging given our globally distributed team.
- Creating job descriptions and syndicating them to free job boards to attract inbound applicants.
- Simplifying the candidate screening process by organizing applicant information, resumes, interview notes and feedback, and more all in one place.
- Allowing teams to collaborate on candidate reviews and post comments for others to see.
- Mass messaging candidates.
Cons
- Merging duplicate applicant profiles is difficult to do in bulk and weeding out spam or accidental / incomplete profiles can be time consuming.
- The Resumator allows applicants to apply via LinkedIn but doesn't pull in much social data (i.e. who are my shared connections with an applicant) or serve up data from other social accounts like Facebook, Twitter, etc.
- The mobile version of the site is almost impossible to use.
- I wish I could create interview notes templates for certain departments or positions with the questions I plan to ask each applicant and then fill in my notes on their responses during an interview.
