It always gives the best experience while searching and choosing the candidate. Also, Workable's user friendly interface makes it easy to navigate and do the tasks more easily. The recent AI implement within the product helps us a lot in managing our roles, and hiring the right candidates for our organization.

Well, Workable is a great tool for recruiters, the easy UI, and features are makes it a great tool. Also, the integrations with job portals makes it easier for us to post our new job roles to most of the portals in just a few clicks. The best part is that we can change how we look for specific candidates with our unique requirements to match what we need. And we also have options to automatically post our new roles to social media easily.

Use Cases and Deployment Scope
We use Workable across our who organization to recruit, receive and track applicants to all of our roles, end to end. We use it to post jobs to our careers site and integrated job boards (linkedin, etc); receive applicants; upload other profiles that come through other sources; track feedback and key info on the candidates throughout the interview process; and do background checks.
Pros and Cons
  • Fast & seamless publishing to job boards
  • Ease of feedback entry and collaboration with hiring team
  • Ease of management across multiple open reqs
Likelihood to Recommend
Workable suits our mid-size company well, whether we are in a slow hiring (eg 5-10 open reqs at a given time) or fast hiring (eg 20-30 open reqs at a given time) mode. It may work less well for companies dealing with much higher volumes, or for companies who are intaking candidates from multiple sources (eg agencies, etc), because Workable has a limited number of integrations so the upload of profiles is often manual. Overall, it is easy to understand and use, so team members and new Hiring Managers can get up to speed very quickly and with minimal training by HR.

I was the main user of Workable. Worked on it as recruiting system / ATS. Also, hiring managers worked on the system with me on specific jobs. Workable helped us manage the hiring process better, to track candidates, to improve the flow and to easily contact recruiters and candidates.
Pros and Cons
  • Track the hiring process
  • Provide templates for every step, help us be more professional
  • Increase exposure of job post on relevant job boards
Likelihood to Recommend
All in all, Workable is an easy to use system, gives good answers to our needs, [and] provided even more than we needed as a small company (candidates evaluation tools, employees referral, annual planning). For me it was good and easy and I will be glad to work with Workable again. I didn't use reports too much so I can't tell how good it is. I'm sure that for bigger companies it will be a helpful tool.

I used Workable to apply for a new position. I found it to be a seamless experience and it was easy to complete my application. Even better, I ended up receiving the jobs, which means the company was definitely looking at Workable -- it must have been easy on the backend to see the responses I gave to their application questions.
Pros and Cons
  • Good interface
  • User centered features
  • Easy to navigate
Likelihood to Recommend
Workable is well suited to use in the context of providing questions and collecting information about job applicants. As a user, it was easy to navigate and felt like a polished interface. On the back end, I imagine it helps to centralize data about various applicants to easily compare. Useful when collecting resume and cover letters, as well.

Use Cases and Deployment Scope
Workable is used by the Talent Acquisition team within the HR function as well as the Hiring team to coordinate and conduct interviews. Workable offers a world class Applicant Tracking System which takes care of all the recruitment task from defining a job description to posting it at hundreds of job boards, conducting the interviews over video calls, and finally the onboarding of the hired candidate. It is backed by the cutting edge Artificial Intelligence recruiting platform which allows us to reach not only the active potential candidates but also the passive ones.
Pros and Cons
  • One can literally hire people without even opening their laptops. The mobile apps are present across Android and iOS devices and are powerful enough to get all the work done.
  • Customer support is at the next level. It's the best I have seen so far for any technical vendor.
  • Help[s] us tap [into a] more diverse talent pool by optimizing our job descriptions.
Likelihood to Recommend
Workable is great at creating job posts and posting them to multiple job boards with a single click and also running paid campaigns on social media platforms to reach passive candidates as well. Workable has a friendly UI and has a very gentle learning curve. It is more appropriate for larger organizations where you need to hire thousands of people a year and need to always have a pipeline of great talent.

Use Cases and Deployment Scope
Workable is one of the most intuitive tools when it comes to managing candidate databases, especially if you need to evaluate the talent of each candidate, so that those who advance to testing as prospective employees are those who meet the most characteristics that fit the needs of the company. We find that Workable has a very flexible candidate tracking tool. Workable manages a convenient system based on the implementation of job objectives, which, as mentioned above, offer many alternatives when it comes to detailed follow-ups that comply with a certain set of specific characteristics within our talent management. We can create templates with all kinds of information for applicants to review, and we can even export them and send them via email, or as reminders added to the company's activity calendar. These templates can vary in format and quality as much as needed. The platform can be integrated with social networks to be able to review the job applications that come to the company through them, and thus be able to follow up more extensively on the prospective employees who send such applications, having access to more information about them.
Pros and Cons
  • The platform allows us to implement a scorecard service through which it is possible to keep track of the quality of nutrition that each prospective employee could bring to the company, so that the decision to hire any of them is as profitable as possible.
  • Communication with candidates is very easy to track, so that it is possible to make sure that the results proposed by each employee in the recruitment area are totally adequate. This is useful to filter possible failures that may occur on the part of the recruitment team.
  • The platform works with recruitment funnels, whose structure allows us to purify the information of real utility for the company by the employees, and where we can even add databases with the information of all prospective employees that are kept in the recruitment process.
  • Using Workable in conjunction with the information provided by their online technical assistants results in a huge improvement in our labor operation, as they know the best strategies to leverage our hiring management. Workable's technical support is active most of the day.
  • Using Workable was no problem for our employees in the human talent development area, mostly because they, despite not having any experience with Workable, were able to adapt to the platform with incredible speed, thanks to the ease of use of Workable and the number of tools it has right out of the box.
Likelihood to Recommend
For the definition of objectives with respect to the number of certain types of employees to be recruited for the company, whether they have talents that are useful in a specific area, or whether they are completely new to the world of work and you are looking for employees with no experience. It is useful in the evaluation of skills of any kind that employees may possess, since, depending on the type of work, some employees need to have more developed skills than the rest in terms of technical knowledge, as in the case of automotive repair companies or manual work in general. The most useful scenario to develop the full potential of Workable is where more control of career planning operations is required, as the service presents us with many easy to customize models depending on the type of career you want to work with (by applicants).

The recruiting department uses it to keep track of candidates and allow hiring teams to be part of the talent acquisition process more fluidly. It is also where the hiring team leaves feedback for candidates after they come in for on-site interviews. It helps recruiting and various other departments to work together easily on open requisitions.
Pros and Cons
  • Feedback tool for hiring managers and hiring teams to use post on-site interview.
  • Searching candidates for new openings.
  • Ease of use for the whole team.
Likelihood to Recommend
Workable is best used when in relationship with talent acquisition. Other platforms don't always give those outside of HR access to open requisitions to see candidates and doesn't always let feedback be left. However, Workable has both those functions which make it work the best for our needs in the hiring process.

  • It's simple and easy to use. Easily posts to external job boards with just a click. The employer careers pages are simple and clean- could be more customizable and interactive but the product is fairly cheap compared to competitors.
  • Customer service is FAST and always helpful. We've been with workable since the beginning and they've taken our feedback into consideration.
  • General usability and intuitive usage
  • Ability to tag and search tags is helpful
  • The fact that emails are linked so that full interactions are logged is helpful
Likelihood to Recommend
Not only valuable as a stage for distributing work specs and accepting applications through one, unmistakable to-all road; but also valuable because of the unexpected advantage of viably institutionalizing the procuring procedure. It is a successful logging device, and works for re-targeting old competitors and giving key information (for example, number of unsuccessful candidates,) to incite organizations to enhance/alter a vocation spec or be more sensible about the applicant they're searching for.

Use Cases and Deployment Scope
Our talent acquisition team uses Workable as our ATS. It is used across the whole organization as a way to submit candidate referrals and is also utilized by hiring managers across the organization to review candidates and give feedback on candidates in the pipeline.
Pros and Cons
  • Very customizable. We can set up unique interview stages specific to each requisition. Also, we highly utilize the integration with Zapier to automate and customize the ATS to follow our hiring process, vs forcing our hiring process to fit the ATS.
  • Innovative company adding new features all the time. We love the numerous integrations they offer and are excited to start using the HelloSign feature to simplify our offer letter approval process.
  • Love being able to bulk message candidates and bulk disposition candidates. We don't always handle candidates profile by profile so this is a must. Believe it or not, not all ATS systems allow you to do this.
  • Workable has a fabulous help center full of great articles. They have already created tons of great content that we like to share to help us train hiring mangaers on best practices. Usually you wouldn't think have a great help center is that important but it ends up being very helpful!
  • Love that Workable automatically publishes jobs to free job boards, and the premium job postings are one-click and done! This saves us so much time.
Likelihood to Recommend
Workable is well suited for a small recruiting team with 200 - 500 employees. Workable may not be as suitable for an Enterprise size company hiring thousands of people. They are GDPR compliant and are coming out with great new features all the time. We love how customizable it is so that we can adapt the ATS to our hiring process, and not have to adapt our hiring process to match an ATS. While it is customizable, it is easy to build out and manage on your own. You don't need an administrator to put together a workflow in this ATS.

I am the main user. For each posted job, I add co-workers who will be involved in the interview and hiring process.Using Workable has made the entire recruiting process streamlined, organized, and simplified.
Pros and Cons
  • It's easy to add co-workers to Workable, and since it's very user-friendly, they are able to use it without any training. We can share comments, evaluations, and scheduling right in each candidate's profile. I can customize the process based on co-workers' needs: for example, one hiring manager asked me to add a "Maybe" category so he could easily review candidates that he was not sure about.
  • Job postings can be saved and reused. Pre-screening questions are easy to add and change. I can post to numerous free job boards with just one click. It's also easy to post to premium boards.
  • Workable is integrated with my email and my calendar, which is a huge time saver.
  • Customer service is excellent. Fast response, patient with my many questions, knowledgeable.
Likelihood to Recommend
Workable has been a life saver for me, whether I am recruiting for one job or ten. Having everything - resume, cover letter, screening questions, emails, comments - all organized and easily accessible is invaluable.

Workable is used across the organisation with all managers having access to rate candidates and add in comments. It has streamlined the recruitment process and enabled us to build a pipeline of future talent.
Pros and Cons
  • It is intuitive and easy for users to use.
  • It is easy to collaborate and add comments.
  • The tag's allow for quick notes, pipeline and creating different ways to identify candidates for future opportunities.

Likelihood to Recommend
Very well suited to small to medium business as it's easy to set up, intuitive, cost-effective, and has just about all the features you need. For multiple recruiters and complex reporting, it probably is not as suitable.

We are using Workable for our recruiting process, from job posting through offer letter. I manage it within HR, but our managers are responsible for reviewing candidates and providing feedback. It has helped us provide a centralized place for all recruiting information and candidate tracking.
Pros and Cons
  • Easy to use and move from each step in the recruitment process.
  • The integration with the free postings.
  • The ability to add evaluations and assessments.

If you need an all-in-one Applicant Tracking System, Workable will do the trick. We have been pleased with the ease of use for all of our users.

Our hiring team uses Workable to manage applicants and move them through our defined hiring process stages. We also use Workable to house our candidates that had previously previously applied for open positions and reach out to them if a relevant new position becomes available. We're able to house and collaborate on hundreds of notes on candidates to make the best hiring decisions for our company.
Pros and Cons
  • Easy to use by any member of the hiring team.
  • Define and move candidates through stages.
  • Syncing with Gmail to send emails and schedule interviews.

I would use Workable for any hiring process or hiring decision.

Workable was used across the entire organization, including HR, Hiring Managers and Executives. We used the tool to ensure our recruiting pipeline was streamlined so that we knew where each candidate was in the pipeline and what next steps we needed to take in order to ensure a positive candidate experience.
Pros and Cons
  • Workflow
  • Basic Reporting
  • Collaboration
Likelihood to Recommend
We used Workable at a start-up which was extremely wise. We weren't hiring for 50 open requisitions, we were hiring usually for five or six requisitions at a time. The cost and functionality were so helpful that we used this platform up until we were growing exponentially. After our growth took off, it made sense to utilize a different tool (especially as expectations in measurements shifted).

Great for smaller companies, lighter level of features but works just great!

We used Workable as our applicant tracking system. We would post to several job sites, manage applicant flow, schedule interviews, send job offers and background checks. Workable consolidated our records so that everyone involved in recruiting had a a central source of information. We were able to handle all our different jobs/offers/candidates within the system.
Pros and Cons
  • Workable was extremely user friendly and aesthetically pleasing to use. I had no trouble training or setting up new users, they always caught on quickly.
  • You are able to quickly review candidates at a glance with all notes, texts or emails sent at the top of their profile. This made jumping into a job order easy for those who may be out of the loop.
  • Workable's customer support is stellar, they offer free training and very timely responses for any questions or concerns you may have.
Likelihood to Recommend
Workable is perfect for small to medium recruiting teams with less than 50 open positions. My team had around 5 or so people involved in the hiring process, and we were able to communicate easily and understand what had taken place. However, if you are not diligent at note taking or updating information, Workable will quickly leave you in the dust. Without proper notation on your part, Workable cannot track everything automatically.

  • Workable is easy to use for hiring managers who are hiring for multiple roles.
  • Workable pairs nicely with LinkedIn.

Workable is well suited for teams under 500 people. Workable is less suited for large enterprise companies.

Use Cases and Deployment Scope
Our company uses Workable across our entire organization to keep everyone aligned on potential candidates for open positions and the status of candidates that have been brought in for interviews. Previous to Workable we were trying to track candidates manually and spent a lot of time going back and forth over email and Slack to discuss candidates.
Pros and Cons
  • My company is a relatively small startup and we love to maximize each employees social media reach to help find high quality candidates. I can easily go into the "Jobs" section, see open positions and then post to social media sites. If I find who I think might be a qualified candidate can refer them inside of Workable by clicking "Refer a Candidate"
  • Prior to using Workable there was no way for me to easily provide input after interviewing a candidate and see what other interviewers had to say. Now I can quickly input my feedback, see other employees feedback.
  • I personally have a busy schedule that includes travel so it was nice to quickly access a candidate prior to an interview, see their resume and where they are in the interview process. Our HR team loves the Google calendar integration so they can check my schedule and get something set up when I'm going to actually be in the office and available.
Likelihood to Recommend
As someone who is not directly involved in hiring day to day Workable fits my needs perfectly. It lets me see new candidates for jobs that I have been assigned to. My input is asked for on jobs related specifically to my expertise. Once a candidate begins the interview process I can track them through the process and provide input. I have not found any scenarios where Workable does is not well suited for my needs.
