Long-time Jobvite user, so-so experience
Overall Satisfaction with Jobvite
We use it across our organization. Our talent acquisition work is slice realized, so across all functions it is used. My team is responsible for managing its use. The business problems it addresses are giving managers access and visibility to their applications. It lets them review candidates and communicate with them. I am also a fan of the feature that allows us to post our jobs to other places. That aspect of it makes things easy and seamless. The other business problem it solves is serving as an ATS. Since we have used it for so long, we can now review candidates from many previous positions. That is great for us. We have candidates who will apply years prior, and we can go back and look at their application and information about their candidacy to determine if we are interested in moving forward with them. i love that part of it. The only other business problem I would say it addresses is onboarding. We use the onboard feature and get to make more seamless the process of having new hires complete their paperwork quickly and easily and digitally. So that’s what I would say about our experience using this product.
Pros
- Integration with onboarding
- Candidate history over time and across other applications
- User-friendly
Cons
- The user interface is not ideal. It feels vert antiquated
- Scheduling things like phone screens or interviews is not easy/calendar integration tools are poor
- Haven’t kept up with other ATSs that are doing interesting work around blinding resumes/adding features around bias mitigation
- Made centralizing talent acquisition easier
- Allowed us to track candidates over time
- Integrated well with onboarding
I haven’t used others. Jobvite is the tool that I have used across different jobs and so it’s really all I know. That said, I have heard good things about Greenhouse. Many of my peers in the sector have switched to them. So that’s really all I know about that.
