(1-25 of 28)Good Product, But the AI Can Be Improved
- Searching
- Candidate outreach
- AI
- More intuitive UI
- Better Filtering
- Allow for automated searching
SeekOut is an overall good tool, but quite pricey
- Diversity filters are well done
- It combines GitHub profiles to the LinkedIn profiles, so all of the information is in one place
- you can customize your filters and create new ones as needed, saving time for future searches
- Diversity filters are not 100% accurate
- The analytics/reports section has a UI that is not the most pleasing
The Best Platform for Finding Diverse Technical Talent!
- SeekOut highlights diverse talent well. I love that I can filter to view Women in Technology, for example.
- The platform's UI is easy to use and the integration with LinkedIn is superb.
- The ability to run messaging campaigns in a quick and easy format saves both time and effort.
- I have seen duplicate candidates several times and wish that feature was tightened up to possibly 'turn off' a profile.
SeekOut not recommended for Japan Market
- Filetering
- Collecting personal information
- Easy to use UI
- Customer Success/Support
- Collecting personal information on side of the U.S is weak
- Would be nice to have more accurate suggestion
- Need to have Project function where we can share with others search better
- Able to review candidates profile on same UI/Page is very important to have
-Hard to get personal information
-For Japan needed to expand search and not narrow the search as not enough candidates and so was not so useful
-Filter ability was not too bad
-Not able to see candidate profile on the same UI/Page was not useful
-Not able to see candidate profile on Linkedin Recruiter mode was negative as sometimes I did not want to leave the footsteps/history the I have reviewed certain candidates
-Overall Seekout did not really help with my need for search
SeekOut does a lot of the work for you!
- Identifies diverse talent easily
- Great AI search feature
- Honing in on geographic locations that are suited for specific talent
- Pulls data from other sources outside of LinkedIn
- Profiles could be updated on a more regular basis.
- The AI could be improved to show more accurate results (although this will come with time and more users taking advantage of the feature)
- Adding boolean into certain areas could be improved o na UI side.
- Advanced Boolean Search
- Source attribution (there's no way to track which leads/prospects/candidates you source using SeekOut)
- More reliable contact information
- Ability to message/contact prospects/leads/candidates in system
- Ability to collaborate with team members (visibility into which prospects have been viewed by team members or contacted, etc)
- Better prospect management capabilities (viewed, contacted, not contacted, not-interested, unresponsive, etc.)
SeekOut delivers unmatched search capability
- Diversity searching
- Robust boolean capabilities - to search specific portions of profiles for keywords
- Provides great analytics
- Some of the integrations with CRM's don't always work well
- The UI tends to change a lot and can be confusing
- Would like to see a CSV download option for search results
Must have for anyone filling tough to hire jobs!
- Helping narrow down what skills are in specific geos
- find candidates that dont have a linkedin
- reach out to candidates that we dont have the ability to message
- UI could be better
- being able to create email drip campaigns
- integration with Greenhouse
SeekOut: A great all-inclusive recruiting platform
- Automated Email messaging campaigns
- Concise summaries of candidate profiles without clicking on them
- Easy to edit messaging campaigns, user friendly UI
- Integration with Linkedin Recruiter, it is still very manual
- Ability to edit email messaging campaigns when paused, even if campaign hasn't been completed
- a way to sort candidate in a project by whether they have a "found email" or not
Mostly Positive Experience
- Sourcing
- Linking GitHub accounts
- Providing GitHub analytics for a quick view
- Accuracy of most recent / current role to reflect LinkedIn
- UI separating each individual role listed within a company rather than just the company. Our searches value candidates that grow within a company but prefer LinkedIn's UI layout to quickly glance how long they have been at the company.
- Accuracy of picture of candidate. Especially if candidate has gone through a gender transition.
SeekOut is a game changer for teams that care about representation and bias mitigation.
- SeekOut's UI is intuitive and easy to use.
- SeekOut's data aggregation is probably the best in its class.
- SeekOut's bias reduction search features are impressive and extremely useful for companies looking to improve representation and inclusion.
- SeekOut's smart filters sometimes skew too broad when it comes to candidate skills and experiences
- SeekOut's UI can sometimes feel a little cluttered.
Needs More for Digital Product and Design.
- Diverse pipelines
- Redirection to LinkedIn
- Filters
- No Product and Design Talent
- Many in the pipeline are job hoppers
- No diverse Product or Design Talent
SeekOut review
- Power Filters
- Features
- Gender filter
- Algorithms
- Power filters limit
- Gender diverse, some times male profiles appears
- Product and Service companies filter
SeekOut is Fantastic!
- Power Filters
- Contact Information
- Shows more candidates than LinkedIn does
- The data can be a bit old, meaning I don't think data refreshes with LinkedIn as often as I would prefer.
- Contact information could be more accurate.
Seekout - Sourcing tool that delivers!
- Very easy to use UI
- Clear search filters
- Returns relevant search results with contact info
- n/a
Great hopes on Seekout, but...
- Diversity sourcing.
- Get direct emails.
- easy and simple UI.
- Does not have all the people like LinkedIn does - I have cross-referenced this with both resources.
- The search is not so intuitive.
- Responses rates were poor - was anywhere from 2-5%.
SeekOut is a total game changer for sourcing candidates!
- Useful and applicable Insights
- Awesome filtering functions
- Intuitive UI, dark mode
- When I click on a candidate in SeekOut, I would prefer the link to open the candidate in Linkedin Recruiter instead of just standard LinkedIn.

SeekOut allows you to find diversified talent!
- I can efficiently find diversified talent and the filters are very helpful.
- The look of the page is very easy to navigate.
- Being able to use power filters is a plus.
- Although the site has good UI/UX, there could still be some improvements to make it look better.
- Diversity filters are not 100% accurate but are good enough.
- I would like the confirmation of the email feature to be more accurate as well.
Will not renew
- Talent insight based on geography
- Offers to view based on ideal profile
