Overall Satisfaction with SmartRecruiters

SmartRecruiters is used by the recruiting team to post jobs and track candidates thru the hiring process. In the future we will use it to track and automate job requistions but we are currently not using it like this.
  • It is very easy to track candidates and move them from job to job.
  • Usability is fabulous. The interface is easy to understand and simple to learn.
  • Inputing and posting jobs are very easy and not complicated or time consuming.
  • I would like more catagories to place candidates in when they are going through the job process. Perhaps sub-categories. If a candidate is in New I would like keep them there if I am requesting a resume from them or other information. Moving them to Reviewed to me means sending to the client but perhaps I am only requesting a resume. I would like to move them to a placeholder so I am not looking at them every time I look at new candidates.
  • I would like to be able to see resumes with formats that are not currently supported.
  • I would like to duplicate a job and open a new one while in a job.
  • I would like to add candidates to job reqs while in the job and not having to go out and click on add candidates.
Candidate experience is seamless. They do sometimes have problems sending back offer letters to the system. We have candidates send directly to our email and not to the system.
Hiring managers do not use our system. Only recruiters.
  • Tracking of candidates is huge for our company. We did not use anything previously.
  • Time-saving.
  • Metrics are improved.
SmartRecruiters is easy to use. I did like being able to place candidates in "buckets" but I worked in staffing and keeping track of candidates with like experience was very important. Not really as big of a need in the corporate world.
I think it is a very useful tool and would recommend it to a colleague for tracking of candidates. We have a very basic setup so I am not sure of all the functions available and perhaps things we are not using day to day.
