How easy and pleasant the interface is, the ability to edit the selection process to add or remove steps and the ability to upload Linkedin profiles directly.

Honestly, there is nothing that I do not like, its functionalities are just what is needed for a selection process, neither more nor less.

What problems is Workable solving and how is that benefiting you?

Thanks to Workable I can have the entire selection process in one place, leave notes for my fellow recruiters and look at past profiles in selection processes that are already closed.

"Workable is a platform that meets all a recruiter's needs."
What do you like best about Workable?

The usability is perfect and easy to work; People's search is incredible; The referral helps a lot and is a great feature!!

What do you dislike about Workable?

I would like to have more flexibility to create more workflows by myself, not depending on someone to input the process for me.

What problems is Workable solving and how is that benefiting you?

The visibility of the workflow to my leaders, they now can follow up how is their position. Also, managing the communications with my candidates is helping me a lot.

"Makes work so much easier"

You can add lengthy comments and information about candidates in your talent pool and on the role. I like you can follow a role from the start to hiring and understand the process to get there. Posting a role is easy and quick

What do you dislike about Workable?

Nothing at the moment. If you were to look at extras it would be add ons like billing etc

What problems is Workable solving and how is that benefiting you?

"Easy Online Recruitment"
What do you like best about Workable?

Workable is easy to get started and allows you to track your candidates at every stage of the recruitment process. You can link it to your email so you don't miss messages if you are not in Workable all day.

What do you dislike about Workable?

I found it difficult to create an offer template and would have appreciated an online help feature or a support number or chat to contact someone for assistance.

What problems is Workable solving and how is that benefiting you?

We currently do not have an ATS so workable is a great solution for us and it is reasonably proiced. We have currently hired 3 candidates using this application.

"User friendly interface. It helps to understand the current pipeline and create for future hires."
What do you like best about Workable?

First of all the general picture of my current pipeline. Very user friendly interface. Good reports. Great integration with LinkedIn, BambooHR, other social media. I could customise my emails, also I can send bulk emails for connecting with candidates. Support answers very quickly for all my questions, it's also very important.

What do you dislike about Workable?

It would be great to improve some reports to create them automatically. I guess it's the only one thing I would improve.

What problems is Workable solving and how is that benefiting you?

Referral system for our colleagues. Bulk emails. Reports

"Great hiring tool!"
What do you like best about Workable?

It gives access to other stakeholders; I can post on multiple platforms and personalize the pipeline

What do you dislike about Workable?

It's very black and white. It would be nice if I could select multiple posts and refresh them all at once.

What problems is Workable solving and how is that benefiting you?

We are maximizing exposure of the companies job opening by posting on multiple platforms at once. With Covid and remote working, as well as having numerous offices across the countries, it's easy for every stakeholder to have access and see the progress of the applicants.

Workable enables all who are involved in a hiring process to view the entire timeline and all the candidates. It's hiring made simple like never before

Sometimes there are glitches when using the left or right arrow buttons while typing a note to schedule.

"Workable works!"
What do you like best about Workable?

I love how easy this platform is to use, but the ease doesn't take away from the quality nor the extra features that are so handy. Everything is in one spot, from sourcing candidates, having them apply, to doing their background check, writing offer letters, and all.

What do you dislike about Workable?

I love the template function; however, when setting up an appointment for candidates, you have to manually insert the text. So, for now, I am copying and pasting a preexisting format into the text when I set up interviews with candidates for their second interview.

What problems is Workable solving and how is that benefiting you?

Before Workable, we had multiple sites where we were communicating with people then putting them into our old ATS. With Workable posting our jobs to numerous job platforms, especially Indeed, we no longer have to keep up with different communication platforms. Now, it's all in Workable!

"Workable"
What do you like best about Workable?

Hiring plan and customizable tracking for each job; user interface is user friendly and navigation is intuitive; help directory is robust so whenever I have a question, there is always an answer and if I cannot find the answer the help desk is at the ready.

What do you dislike about Workable?

There are not many things to complain about with this system

What problems is Workable solving and how is that benefiting you?

We had a system that was not working well because no one knew how to use it or didn't like using it. People are utilizing the features of Workable and the hiring teams are able to stay on track and on the same page.

"Workable is good for start-ups."
What do you like best about Workable?

We started using Workable as a big step up from using our personal linkedin's to find people and tracking candidates an Excel sheet. It has tools for all of the applicant tracking and schduling. It integrated easily with our website so the jobs update automatically.

What do you dislike about Workable?

Small Nits to pick: Workable posts to "16 job sites", but most candidates came from Linkedin and Indeed, and the other 14 were filler. The AI auto Sourcing only works for generic jobs. The Candidate search function contained a lot of scraped data like old work emails or your first email when you were 13. Double-check the email for reaching out. And always cross-reference the profiles with LinkedIn to see if the data is up to date.

What problems is Workable solving and how is that benefiting you?

Workable allowed us to do recruiting well before had HR. We used it to hire our first HR person, who is using it to continue hiring.

What do you like best about Workable?

What do you dislike about Workable?

I honestly don't have a dislike. I have used 3 ATS in the past and have been using Workable now for about three years, and it is by far my favorite

What problems is Workable solving and how is that benefiting you?

The main problem I have solved from using Workable is no longer having to keep up with a shared spreadsheet because the dashboard is so great

1. Keeping the track record of candidates and Feedback. 2. Offered candidates track record.

What do you dislike about Workable?

1. If the candidate does not want to join on the agreed date and to proposes for the next joining date, then we have to delete the entire candidature and do it once again, which I don't like.

What problems is Workable solving and how is that benefiting you?

1. Avoiding feedbacks on Email my problem is solved here, and moving the candidate to the hired stage and keeping track is helping me with benefits.

"Intuitive, clever, and great support"
What do you like best about Workable?

I love Workable's automations feature, offer templates, and support team. Great integrations for job posting, applicant testing, scheduling, and HRIS. Their chat support is very helpful and very available which makes it simple and quick to solve most problems. Overall, an easy and intuitive ATS solution with a great UX and awesome customer support.

What do you dislike about Workable?

It can be frustrating to need to reach out to your account manager to do things like add new workflows and add standard application form questions that apply across all jobs; would be better if this was able to be done by account admin. Additionally, we have run into bugs with self-schedule links that have caused candidate and hiring manager frustration. Reporting is so-so and could be improved, but gives us the base of what we need.

What problems is Workable solving and how is that benefiting you?

We use Workable as our ATS. Makes end to end hiring a breeze.

What do you like best about Workable?

Even if the Recruiter has not logged in to view applicant flow, the Workable system emails the Recruiter when new candidates enter the system.

At this time, nothing is glaring that I dislike ( From a Recruiter perspective).

"An Amazing Tool For Hiring"
What do you like best about Workable?

Workable makes it so easy to look at candidates, share feedback, and move through the hiring process

What do you dislike about Workable?

At times the interface was a little confusing to me. Almost redundant but honestly I have found very little to dislike.

What problems is Workable solving and how is that benefiting you?

Rather than having a meeting to discuss feedback, we can all review and comment in workable. It saves so much time!
