  • Software has helped us scale to 500 people team with the help of a lean HR team.
  • Video scheduling and interviews help with streamlined interviews in these pandemic times.
  • The paperless and contactless hiring process helps with joining and makes this process clutter-free.
Workstream is integrated software that supports Video interviews and video intros. This feature is very helpful in the current pandemic times. Paperless hiring is another primary reason to opt for a workstream. Video training modules for new and existing employees is the need of the hour with constant reminder features and keep the employees up to to date with current work features and processes.

We use Workstream in the Human Resources department, it is a perfect software to recruit new staff, it is very easy to use, both for new recruits and for recruiters. It saves us time because we can schedule and conduct interviews digitally. It is software that simplifies the selection process, helps us choose the most suitable candidate for our company. It is a highly automated software that generates productivity for our company. Also, if a problem arises, technical support will help us immediately.
  • We can quickly communicate with applicants.
  • It is easy to edit the questions for recruitment.
  • The selection process is done quickly through a smartphone.
  • Great time savings and high productivity.
  • Information of our applicants always at hand.
  • It is software very attentive to our needs, which means that when we have a concern or need to solve something, they solve it immediately, they listen to our proposals so that our hiring is fast and without inconvenience.
If your company has flaws in the hiring system, I must say that Workstream is the most capable software, the hiring of personnel is very effective, it generates speed, a lot of productivity, the follow-up of the candidates is very good, it frees us from the burden of work because automation allows the selection process to be carried out more efficiently.
  • We love that the selection process is quick and very productive.

  • Automated system to carry out a very comfortable selection process for both parties.

  • Applicants are chosen very professionally, they have good speed, we do not need to be personally in front of the candidate, because the selection process is digital, which increases the hiring flow and improves results.

We use Workstream as our hiring platform and training. We are [the] majority franchisee and have 75% of the company currently on it. Workstream has been able to save our franchisees time and money when it comes to their hiring. Workstream uses several job boards to post. 10 to be exact. You can also sponsor a job post from Workstream. The QR code is an awesome feature and we've put the QR code on all recruiting tools for our franchisees. This is helpful to have on business cards when managers come across potential team members.
  • Text or email applicants as options or you can use both
  • Automatic scheduling for the applicant to conveniently use
  • Uses up to 10 job boards
  • Use the online signing feature for tax forms or internal forms
  • Upload training documents and videos for applicants or current employees to utilize on Workstream
  • Great blog updates to educate users on hiring trends
  • Workstream tutorial videos less than 2 minutes to help with most topics
  • I would love to see Workstream have a scheduler integrator
  • Allow video resumes
  • Have a virtual assistant
Workstream has been great for new restaurant openings by using the QR code on business cards and using the QR code on our marketing material as well. We had one restaurant have 17 applicant's via the QR code.
The biggest opportunity was cost during the pandemic. Our franchisees wanted a guaranteed number of applicants for being charged what they were getting charged. This was not something Workstream can accommodate but this is also not guaranteed on any job board.
  • Moving applicant from stage to stage automatically
  • Automatic scheduler for the manager to make it easy for the applicant
  • The analytics feature to show the applicant flow

In our company, Workstream is primarily used by our HR department to hire and onboard new employees and contractors.
  • Increases applicant stream.
  • Easily onboards new employees and contractors.
  • Provides a place to keep employee files organized.

  • Ease to edit postings.

Workstream helped to streamline the recruiting process with my company. I love the functionality of the website, even my managers like using Workstream. One of the features that sold me was the texting option, this helps me when I need to quickly reach out to an applicant with quick response times because people don't always check their emails for their voicemails. I would highly recommend Workstream!
  • Functionality
  • Texting feature
  • A variety of job boards to post to.
  • Less clutter with previous and new position postings on the position page.
  • Sometimes there are automatic scheduling issues.
Workstream is very well suited to fit many businesses' needs. They have quick support responses and everyone who works at WS is very friendly and will go the extra mile to address/solve any concern.
  • Functionality
  • Job board selection
  • Easy communication with applicants.
