Overall Satisfaction with SeekOut
I use SeekOut to find passive candidates to pass along to clients and recruiters to reach out to. As far as I know, we don't have any problems with SeekOut other than the profiles not always being up to date. I use SeekOut several times a week and so do roughly half the employees here.
- Searches various industries
- Diversity searches
- Displays profiles in a way that makes it easy to read over them quickly before bothering to click on them
- Sometimes SeekOut pulls people that have nothing to do with my searches/Boolean strings
- SeekOut is not always up to date as far as Years of Experience
- SeekOut often pulls people who are currently not at the companies their profiles initially say they are.
- Good for diversity searches
- Makes finding tech people very easy
- Not so great for go to market searches
A lot of us have started using SeekOut more often than Linkedin Recruiter because SeekOut often casts a wider net.
I like SeekOut because I generally find more candidates in a timely manner.
