Overall Satisfaction with Bullhorn ATS & CRM
Bullhorn is used across our whole organization. Mainly, recruiters and branch managers use it. We use Bullhorn to manage our applicants and where there are in the process of being hired or interviewed. We are able to filter our applicants by using shortlists and tearsheets. Even if we don't have a position for the applicant, we can put them on a tearsheet or shortlist for future openings. We are also able to easily search for our applicants with their phone numbers or names making it easier to pull up their file. I use Bullhorn for probably 75-80% of my business functions with recruiting. I am not sure how I would manage without Bullhorn.
- Filtering candidates
- Locating candidates files
- Keeping track of where everyone is in the process
- Notes - leaving notes helps our entire company see where we are with each candidate
- Shortlist status - it is tedius to have different notes and different shortlist status. Shortlist status do not really help me in recruiting
- Textkernel in Bullhorn is sometimes difficult for me - too many clicks and buttons
- I would like to see more details required in candidates files - like a resume. So many candidate come through with their name and phone number and nothing else. Takes a lot more time for us to find out what their background is than if it was just a required field when applying
- For a long time, we lost a lot of candidate traction due to only using Bullhorn and our website. We were not receiving as many candidates.
- Takes a long long time to learn - streamlining processes would be nice. Could have saved the company time and used it to recruit and make more money.
We used custom match as well, Bullhorn is easier, more modern, and tech savy. I prefer Bullhorn to that because there are more things to see and do with each candidate. I just sometimes forget about candidates, so tasks would be nice to remind me what I need to do next with each candidate.
