Overall Satisfaction with iApplicants

Maintained by our HR department, it is a tool used by all the supervisors and managers in the organization. It allows easy share of candidates being considered, allows hiring manager to be involved in search at appropriate levels and provides a more organized flow in the process. It provides the applicants a positive experience as well with autmated responses and ability to up-date applications/resumes if desired without repeating the entire process.

Pros

  • Sourcing Reports: We can see where we are getting the stronger pool candidates
  • Email templates: Allows easy modification to email responses to large groups or individual applicants as to status of their application.
  • Screening questions: Able to place screening questions on application that saves time in reviewing candidate application and moves them quickly to a 'yes' or 'no' category

Cons

  • Searching for candidates who applied earlier for different positions: You have an applicant who is not really a fit for a role he/she submitted an application toward. However, you have a new position come open that they may be perfect - but it was months ago and you cannot remember their name! Search via 'jobs applied for' maybe helpful
  • Faster lead conversion
  • Positive experience for hiring managers
  • huge save on paper and filing for HR!
  • Able to pull archived job postings and applications without digging through manual files
iApplicants has Awesome support.
ADP is our current HR, Benefits and Payroll systems. It made since to consider adding in Recruitment tools.
But in side-by-side comparison of cost and services, there was no contest. And the support by iApplicant team is one of the best I have worked with, in particular their 'chat' support
You can build up your iApplicant system to be as beefy as you want. But with cost in mind, we chose to keep it to a certain level and are receiving what we wanted to achieve. There are training opportunities via webinars which also shows ways you can expand the iApplicant service if desired. That is helpful to keep up-to-date with what is available
