Overall Satisfaction with Gem

I use Gem as a sourcing tool to reach candidates by email vs inmail. The market is extremely competitive right now and Gem is a great way to get noticed by candidates. It allows you to create "sequences" or a series of automated emails so that you don't have to follow up manually. Additionally, you can send on behalf of (send from someone else) say for example a hiring manager, etc which also helps messages get noticed. Additional pluses of Gem - GREAT analytics, way better than our ATS's and a really cool talent pipeline feature - basically a Trello board of your pipeline! It's a great way to see the status of every role in a very digestible format!
  • Sending sequences (automated emails to candidates).
  • Analytics, including great visuals of the pipeline.
  • Great metrics features so you can measure your impact (much better than LinkedIn).
  • Honestly - nothing! Gem just keeps getting better and better in ways I wouldn't have thought of!
  • Allowed us to track our impact through the analytics and set more realistic expectations with exec teams on what is possible for recruiting.
We looked at Resource which was acquired by Gem :) That was it!

Gem is a in my opinion a necessity for any TA team in this market. It's no longer possible to be competitive with just LinkedIn - it's easy for candidates to lose those messages. Gem allows you to get noticed by candidates and stay competitive in this market!
