Overall Satisfaction with Trakstar Hire (formerly Recruiterbox)

Recruiterbox is a core part of our business operations. At University Growth Fund, we vet hundreds of applicants for our internship program and bring on 50-70 per year. We are also a small full-time team of three and Trakstar has been critical to allowing us to vet and communicate with hundreds of applicants.
  • Manage the pipeline of applicants in an easy to use, customized way
  • Manage all communications, though inside the app and through my work inbox
  • Collect and store information about candidates
  • Sometimes our email end up in the SPAM folders of our applicants
  • The app is really built for hiring just 1 person per role, but we are hiring 10+ 3x per year for the same role
  • I wish they had a mobile app for entering applicant data in real time
  • Fewer applicants fall through the cracks
  • Saves a massive amount of time, avoiding the need to hire an additional person
  • Better communication with applicants so that they will respected throughout the process

Would you buy Trakstar Hire again?

Yes

Before, it was a nightmare of spreadsheets, email templates, and needless to say, many many applicants fell through the cracks or left with a bad impression of our firm due to the poor communication. With Trakstar, we're able to easily track where every applicant is in the funnel, collect information on how they are doing, and manage the whole communication process. I love being able to work in both Gmail and in their software and I love how it tracks the conversations so that I can easily go back and review where things are with any given applicant.

That said, the product is more geared toward someone that is hiring for one person per role. We make it work, but there is a lot of functionality that doesn't get used because of that.
