Use Cases and Deployment Scope

Greenhouse is easy to use and has a great UI. Process flow and storage of information (resume, cover letter, candidate scoring) is very intuitive and straight forward. The search function makes it easy to find candidates and being able to at another user is helpful to notify someone of an action or if a candidate is better suited for them.

Pros and Cons

Easy to search for a candidate
Organizes information well
Notifies new candidates and candidates that have been in the system for some time

Have a flag to search out of state vs in state

Return on Investment

I am unsure of the cost of Greenhouse but it has been a key tool for recruiting.

Alternatives Considered

I have not used other third party products like Greenhouse before. Typically at previous jobs this has been managed internally via a team portal. Greenhouse is overall better and friendlier user interface and is built to have advanced functions (set up permissions, assign different roles, and exchange comments with the recruiter or hiring manager.

Other Software Used

1Password, Looker, Airtable

Likelihood to Recommend

It is a great tool that fulfills our needs to track hiring for the Technology stack. The overall process flow of looking at candidates, reading resumes and cover letters is great. I think some areas of improvement is the search functionality (in state vs out of state) and also if rating candidate page could be integrated better with the current process flow of the candidate vs two different links.

Greenhouse is a fantastic tool for tracking and managing the recruiting process
