Reviews
(26-50 of 89)Recruiting made easy!
- A lot of functionality
- Ease of use
- Great reporting capability
- More flexibility on certain parts of the recruiting workflow.
- More options for custom templates and being able to share templates
- Constantly updating the technology
- Asking what your needs are as an organization
- Bringing recommendations to the table to help you recruit more efficiently
- I would like to see Canvas for texting applicants further integrated into Jobvite - but I think that's already in the works
- I would like a way to boost ads through Jobvite on popular job boards like Indeed to increase visibility on those hard-to-fill positions
Jobvite is excellent!
- Extremely user friendly!
- Excellent customer support!
- Everyone can get access to the information they need, meaning that hiring managers do not need to depend on the recruiter.
- Helps provide a great candidate experience!
- I wish the reporting was a little more robust in the area of canned reports.
- Tracks applicants through the hiring process
- Allows for quick communication with applicants
- Provides direct links to job boards
- The mobile app is still weak such that none of our users are actively using it
- The website reporting lacks integration with Google Analytics or some other BI tool
They understand the TA landscape & where it's going.
- Candidate experience.
- Ease of use by recruiting team.
- Reporting.
- Jobvite Engage could be easier to use.
- Some detailed reporting is difficult and requires customer service.
- Jobvite Engage is great to build out recruitment marketing campaigns. This is relatively a new area for recruiting so if you don't know how to do it effectively, Jobvite is a great partner to really establish a great foundation to build recruitment marketing programs.
- The "Jobvites" feature makes submitting referrals, advertising job postings, and tracking referrals super easy for the employee and the company.
- You can customize the system to really meet your business needs at different periods of growth. Take the time to really optimize the system to help run your business!
- They were recently acquired by a private equity that in turn also acquired multiple other companies and they are putting them under the Jobvite name. It has been very confusing to go through this transformation and you really don't have a great idea of how it is going to all come together. I'm sure in due time they will rebrand things to make it easier to understand.
- Onboard needs to be built out further.
Jobvite Offers a Modern Tool for Talent Acquisition
- Jobvite provides an excellent candidate experience, and we're able to minimize the time to apply and conduct all interactions through the application.
- The Engage CRM has robust capabilities around constructing and executing marketing campaigns for events such as college career fairs.
- The On-Boarding module is efficient and effective at providing an excellent new hire on-boarding experience. New hires are able to complete all but a handful of tasks prior to their first day on the job, improving time-to-productivity. Internal surveys have demonstrated a high degree of employee satisfaction with the process.
- The reporting functionality is not as robust as we would like to see. While improvements are underway, it is not as intuitive for building reports as desired.
- The implementation methodology for new customers left room for improvement. Not having an assigned resource who was accountable for the end-to-end implementation resulted in some delays in launching that could have been avoided.
Jobvite Improved Our Candidate Experience
- Email campaigns
- Candidate status
- Web application process
- Downtime
- Grouping on candidates.
- Linkage between engage and hiring portions of the product.
Jobvite: Exceptional Customer Support!
- Dedicated Customer Service is available to support the strategic and tactical needs of our team. We meet at least monthly to discuss areas of concern and resolve quickly.
- Jobvite has great training resources to train users on features and functions of the system. They are web-based, on demand, and some onsite, if you desire.
- The reporting capabilities are robust with canned reports that may be customized. They will also partner with you to build reports that do not exist to meet your organization's needs.
- The system does not currently enable you to have a library of job descriptions to pull from when creating a requisition.
- The system does not enable you to have multiple logos on user-facing emails. For example, I wanted to send a campaign across my enterprise inviting my employees to refer candidates. It would only allow me to use one of the company logos, and I have four different divisions.
- The scheduling feature does not work if you have multiple email clients in your organization. You can only choose one email client, leaving other entities unsupported by the email scheduling feature.
- The system does not have a candidate reference checking tool. We had to build this in a separate system. Otherwise, reference checking was manual.
- The system does not allow you to have an external job title and an internal job title. We often find that a job title resonates more with a candidate than some of our internal titles. The system does not allow you to have both, like iCIMS does.
- The onboarding functionality is very difficult to use. We have done a lot to customize onboarding; however, it is difficult to "dial it back" post original implementation. The onboarding process can be daunting to candidates due to multiple steps.
- It would be great if you could send hiring manager satisfaction surveys like iCIMS.
Highly recommend using Jobvite as an ATS tool!
- Candidate correspondence.
- Ease of scheduling.
- Ease of working with hiring managers.
- A dedicated account representative instead of a chat feature.
- The chat feature often times out without a response.
- A customer service number rather than the chat feature.
Jobvite Review
- Building Campaigns
- Make the scheduling of interviews more timely
- Search feature
- Very user friendly
- You can only use each Job Requisition once, so we lose history
- The reporting functionality is not robust
Jobvite is in a class of its own
- Customization
- Social Friendly
- Customer Support
- Continuous Improvement
- Some settings are "one for all" across different departments/categories
- Some training needed for end users (hiring managers)
- Onboard has a "mass export", but you can't customize what is included in that export
Fantastic all-in-one talent acquisition platform!
- Easy interview scheduling and candidate self-scheduling
- Automated emails
- Collaboration across all members of the hiring teams
- Ease of use for recruiters
- Built in training and reminders on how to navigate screens and complete tasks
- Support can be slow to respond at times
- Difficult to differentiate between external and internal candidates
- Customization - Easy to create customized workflows and templates.
- Ease of use - all our users have an easy time logging into the system and using it with minimal assistance.
- Reporting - As the administrator, we can rely on Jobvite reporting to accurately reflect our activity. They take a while to get used to, but once you are able to create one report, you learn how to create others.
- Navigation - Admin page can be challenging to understand. I think there is some room for improvement on the way things are identified (i.e. Hire vs. Communications, Configurations, etc.) I always have to search what I'm looking for or access the community for answers.
- The ability to disable candidate application emails by requisition. Some of my managers prefer not to receive these in their inbox vs. others that have a strong preference. Would be nice if we could disable by req.
- User Permissions. Schedulers don't have access to perform all their required tasks. For example, a scheduler cannot actually schedule in some cases. Additionally, if you don't want them to see comp info in the candidates application, there isn't a way to control this. I've had to disable my scheduler's access (our receptionist) for this reason and can no longer use his help.
Jobvite - ATS for every size organization
- Jobvite makes it easy to post new jobs and have the requisitions approved by managers
- They send automatic notifications to applicants and the dispositioning tool is easy to use
- Customer service has been great in the 4 years I've used the site, no problems.
- I would like to see more reporting capability within the system.
- Integrations with background screening softwares is welcomed.
Great tool!
- Keep track of applicants.
- Entering notes in the system based on specific interviews.
- Able to auto-share open positions through social media platforms to encourage applicants.
- I know there were some difficulties in the back-end/HR side of things, but I'm not familiar with them.
Jobvite Review
The recruiter (me) uses it, as it is integrated with our website. The recruiter and hiring manager communicate through Jobvite. It keeps all things related to the candidate within a req in one place.
- Applicant communication.
- The hiring manager and recruiter communication.
- Integration to our website.
Cost Effective and Reasonably Feature-rich
- Post jobs
- Collect incoming resumes
- Collect compliance information
- Collect initial screening information
- Distribute resumes to job boards
- Integrate with LinkedIn
- Manage candidates associated with requisitions
- Book interviews
- Directly message candidates
- Track a candidate's history with our organization
- Book and manage interviews
The quality of support is excellent.
- Sharing jobs on job boards and social media.
- Intuitive use and administration.
- Collaborate with recruiting colleagues on candidate statuses, moving candidates through the process.
- User access control - The ability to restrict certain recruiters to access requisitions and candidates associated with their office, country, or region.
- Is application-centric vs candidate-centric. If I search for John Smith, it looks like there at 10 John smiths in results, whereas in reality there is one who has applied to 10 jobs.
- Ability to integrate with multiple instances of Office365 for calendar/interview booking reasons.
- Don't need to segment access to information on the basis of office, country, or region. If you need user access control on this basis, it will probably not meet your needs
- Want a cost-effective, mid-market product that lacks in certain areas of global enterprise-type features.
So easy and great to use!
- It is easy to manage and create reqs and move candidates from one to another.
- It offers a lot of personalization.
- You can communicate to the candidate or the managers involved in the process through the app.
- Offer letters don't always send properly.
- Would be easier to make categories with candidates from different applications.
- The notes from one candidate should be saved to all the applications that he/she has, that way we can track them easier.
It works, but there has to be better
- It works
- Has basic functionality
- Slow to load new pages makes reviewing resumes hard
- Sometimes I have issues with single sign on
- Resumes do not always load well on mobile especially when using the Outlook web client
- Not great collaboration features for commenting on resumes
Jobvite is the best rated ATS for a reason
- Ability to leverage the platform to connect all of your users and their social networks to promote your jobs.
- Very easy to use interface for users, leaders, and applicants.
- Greatly improves the candidate experience.
- Integration with LinkedIn is a game-changer.
- Reporting could be a bit more robust, especially with custom reports, but they are working on that now with some improvements coming out soon.
- More customization with security for roles would be great. Restrict or open up what managers can or cannot see etc.
- Doing more to ensure there are no duplicate entries, meaning, the same people with different profiles in the system.
Jobvite Review
- Visibility is good, and Jobvite really stands out in its graphic design.
- The interface is easy to use and intuitive, which in turn feels like its helping productivity.
- Lastly, the statistics and summary options are frequently used as a measure and analysis or our hiring process.
- As an applicant tracking system, there could be options to improve functionality with our payroll system.
- Having more options for a summary of recruiters, using these summaries as KPIs.
- Automating a lot of the recording options would be nice.
- Well designed UI
- Intuitive use cases
- Good supports
- Lack of reports customization
- Needs training for managers
- Alert users of updates
Jobvite has exceeded expectations!
- Simple distribution of jobs to various job boards.
- Excellent user interface and very simple for new users to learn.
- Customization tools make it easy to make changes to application
- Candidates are not required to create an account when submitting applications. Greatly speeds up the process and lowers our drop off rate considerably.
- Robust, simple reporting feature.
- Like to see a mass update option for assigning recruiters, hiring managers, etc., or making changes to a large number of requisitions at once.
- Wish that texting option was a standard feature and not a pricey add-on.
Jobvite to the rescue!
- The integration of the whole process with HR was excellent.
- Employee referrals.
- Very user-friendly.
- Very resourceful tool, but we'd love to see integration with Outlook.
