Overall Satisfaction with SeekOut
Japan is a very candidate short market. The shrinking, aging population coupled with the fact that less than 5% of Japanese nationals have working English skills finding candidates is tough. Additionally, LinkedIn is not very popular here, and recruitment agency costs are some of the highest in the world at 30-40% of the annual salary.
- Consolidates profiles from all over the net
- Often finds contact info for hard to find candidates
- Has great tools for diversity-based hiring
- Connectivity to LinkedIn would be great. Showing candidates I have already saved or approached elsewhere would stop double-work.
- Contact details are often work emails which are unusable as an internal recruiters.
- Gender-based recruitment tool is inaccurate most times.
- Not seeing a strong ROI
- Easy and fun to use
- Easier to search for diverse candidates based on Gender

The ability to create projects and save candidates
Access to candidates not on LinkedIn and hidden in other areas of the web.
Contact info for all the candidates hidden from view.
AI tool to help create projects
Diversity recruiting tools.
