Use Cases and Deployment Scope

Greenhouse is used to manage job applications and the hiring process. It allows us to see who has applied for a job at the company, whether or not we have reached out to that person. Once an interview is scheduled, we can take notes on the interview and share them with the rest of the team.

Pros and Cons

Clearly being able to see where an applicant is in the interview process
Visibility into applicants for a positions
Isolation of candidates info to relevant teams.

Notifications are something that greenhouse could do better with - it would be nice to give users some control over how much they want to be notified about.
Ratings are a bit confusing as it does not bring all the evaluators at the same starting point.
Allow users to use some structure for grading.

Return on Investment

We have been able to have a better organized approach to hiring so it has cut down on time from recruiting teams as well as hiring teams.

Alternatives Considered

Jobvite, Taleo and Workable

I wasn't involved in the selection process for greenhouse. I am an end user as I am using this product for tracking applicants for my team. The HR team did an analysis of other products and we did not have any other product in place beforehand to my knowledge.

Other Software Used

Zendesk, MySQL, Typeform

Likelihood to Recommend

It is a leading product in its field. It has numerous features and really makes the hiring process much more transparent. It integrates with Workday which is amazing. Migration to the software is overwhelming, but once that is done, the benefits are numerous. You can track an applicant throughout the process and even identify trends for improvement.

Hiring made easier!
