SeekOut

SeekOut is well-suited for recruiters/sources who do not have access to the Linkedin Recruiter. SeekOut has a great search function, much like LinkedIn, but there is little upside to using SeekOut over the Linkedin Recruiter.

SeekOut may be helpful to someone in Talent Acquisition when looking to add extra candidates for an interview process in hard-to-fill geography.

SeekOut has helped me on a ton of hard-to-fill roles where I struggled to identify talent. I love the AI functionality and the way that it serves up candidates. It's helped me influence hiring managers and find candidates who have been excellent for my organization.

SeekOut is best suited for DEI candidates, Security clearances, and any role that needs specific areas of expertise. I cannot think of any reason why SeekOut is not best utilized for seeking out talented candidates. Easy to use and narrows down the search to find exactly what you need. I use SeekOut first and then move to other resources if needed.

I think SeekOut is a great tool if we have a dedicated source I wish we had a better and higher response rate for the applicants we find I wish there was a feature where we could hide candidates that are already viewed I really like using this for confidential search that we aren't advertising to build a pipeline

The customer service has been amazing! Our success rep has helped us by maximizing our package and optimizing our reach outs to candidates. The platform is easy to use and to teach to new hires and Carrie has been flawless at teaching us tips and tricks to learn how to use Seek Out to it's fullest potential. The Biggest problem this is helping us solve is finding qualified candidates to reach out to and try to hire. Right now hiring is our number one priority- so this has helped us reach out to candidates!

I find SeekOut very well suited for sourcing in general. It is also very beneficial for targeted sourcing as you can really narrow down the criteria. As for casting a "wide net", SeekOut can be beneficial if can be smart about the search string used.

Very well suited for a lot of professional services recruiting, specifically for diverse sourcing. It provides a different queue of candidates than LinkedIn and the search fields are more varied. Less ideal for hourly workers/industry-type roles.

It has powerful filter with great talent pooling.It has supported features, elaborating skills mapping, utilizing existing skills landscaping, wide-range of candidates screening, various reporting, definition, role, candidates modelling, talent discovery, candidates evaluation, candidates scoring and internal mobility. Seekout basically ensures that you hire the right and well qualified candidates, who are not only capable but have a learning attitude to adapt to the changing scenario.

SeekOut is a great platform to find talent for hard-to-fill roles.

It is a larger-scale recruiting tool, but their location tools need to be better. If I am sourcing for a role in Los Angeles, I shouldn't be getting candidates located in India as a match when I am sourcing for a 50 miles radius. Also, to get their email addresses, it uses a credit, and the majority of the time, these are email addresses that bounce back or the person doesn't actively use. So the metrics look like it was sent because they will send an email to every single one listed as a match to that candidate. So if they have 7 email addresses, it will count as a reached email if even one of those are current. That doesn't mean the person replies.

Seekout is extremely easy to use and very intuitive. It helps to reliably find top talent across EMEA and supports in identifying diverse candidates which makes an over all positive impact for DI recruitment. The tool has helped us recruit first in class talent which gives us an edge over our competitors.

Where ZipRecruiter is great for mostly non-technical profiles with confirmed contact information- SeekOut would be the next best thing for the technical side of recruiting. It does give you the chance for contact information. Sometimes that information is good, and sometimes it's not. When contact information is old or stale, going to their LinkedIn profile to send a connection invite and message through Linkedin Recruiter would be the next step regardless, but is as easy as just one click on their name.

SeekOut is great at finding new candidates that have not shown up before in my searches. The ease of use with the product is great, and their team is phenomenal at assisting their users.

It is very well suited for: Market Analysis, Candidate Identification, Candidate Contact Mining, Data Export and Import, DEI Search.

It is not well suited for Campaign Management, or customization.

If you are looking for a specific diverse group with specialized skills.

- Finding top candidates in their field, and reaching out directly to their emails.
- Diversity features to ensure no bias
- Finding contact info
- Creating project spreadsheets to kick off hiring

The features provided for sourcing candidates quickly and efficiently are effective and easy to use. SeekOut provides regular support to clients and have a team that is quick to respond in the case of any questions or issues arising.

The platform has the potential to be very useful, but some of the information is out of date, the campaigns are not easy to set up and I have yet to have success through the platform.

If you are building a list of candidates, SeekOut will be an invaluable resource. The platform's search capabilities are second to none and can provide a far greater number of results in a single search than what is possible through LinkedIn. This is especially useful when trying to fill multiple roles or when looking for candidates with highly specific skills or experience. SeekOut's powerful search algorithms and customized filters make it easy to quickly identify the most relevant candidates for the job, which can save a significant amount of time and effort compared to traditional recruiting methods. Additionally, the ability to save searches and filter criteria for future use, makes it even easier to build and maintain a comprehensive list of potential candidates. Overall, SeekOut is an excellent choice for any company looking to build a strong pipeline of top talent

I find the tool very well suited to most of the workflows I need to execute as someone in a Sourcing role (aka, the person who works with candidates from initial outreach through the middle stages of a hiring process). I could even see a use case for folks outside of Talent Acquisition functions who just wish to find quality leads (for sales, etc.).

I wouldn't recommend SeekOut for folks who work only on the later stages of a hiring process.

SeekOut is great for candidate searches and market research, even for very niche roles. Searching is easy and can be automated in several ways, including AI matching.

SeekOut has worked well for our company, again, in pulling data from specific diverse talent when needed.

For us, SeekOut was only used to gain lead/candidate names and then proceeding to find those candidates on other platforms. For us, the candidate location and contact information was never correct, which resulted in emails and messages being undeliverable. If you have the time to take lead names, seach and message on other platforms, SeekOut is right for you.

I love the search capabilities within SeekOut. It makes my life much easier finding qualified candidates. I can search on multiple sources and not just LinkedIn (i.e. GitHub is a great addition to the tool). I also like that I can filter by different Inclusion criteria. SeekOut provides a lot of helpful and useful information when it comes to the candidate search for my roles. It's a great tool for diverse talent as well. I also like that is super user-friendly. This is the cornerstone of a good product!
