"Great ATS"
What do you like best about Workable?

Workable allows you to be in sync with all of the candidates from different position very easily. It's user friendly platform helps you navigate through all of the stages of the process with a quick glance. And you can connect other tools that you might be using. We did it for our assessment tools, and the process went very well.

What do you dislike about Workable?

We can't send bulk emails of the assessment tools to candidate just yet. Hence a lot of clicks are required to contact every candidate with the link for the assessment tool.

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

We're saving a lot time!!!

"Recruiting Reinvented"
What do you like best about Workable?

We were wanted to start hiring and going in person or go though a sea of CVs was out of the question. Workable seem to fit our cause. From writing the job post to posting it and getting the first responses is a few hours time. Everything was in front of us and we could collaborate and choose applicants with no issues.

What do you dislike about Workable?

Sometimes the UI is a bit confusing as we were trying to understand the pipeline. After the first times though this was better.

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

I used it for recruiting and not having to do anything by excel sheets. The time to start having CVs and looking at candidates was really small.

The layout is so simple. No directions or instructions are needed. You can just jump right on in.

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

Working on onboarding and recruiting. I've realized that a simle format works best for us.

"Streamlined. Great tools. Efficient."
What do you like best about Workable?

I like being able to manage multiple jobs and seeing them on one dashboard. I also like how easy it is to move candidates through the stages of the hiring pipeline, efficiently, and also customizing pipelines according to specific hiring needs. Email templates are also also a great tool, and I'm able to organize them according to departments.

What do you dislike about Workable?

There are a few technical kinks, but I assume it's from new technology that's added. Some examples of this are connecting Outlook being able to schedule interviews on behalf of certain interviewers. There have been a few minor issues with regards to connecting Outlook calendars canceling, and rescheduling appointments.

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

We're able to streamline the hiring process through Workable. Additionally, were able to track how long it takes on average to hire a candidate, which are keep performance indicators that we use at our company. We're also able to share responsibilities of the hiring pipeline as well as hiring managers are able to view and or contribute, depending on their roles and their needs.

"Easy to use"
What do you like best about Workable?

It was really easy to use. I liked the fact it gave space for me to include why I believe my friend is the perfect addition to my workplace. I also love the fact I can follow the process.

What do you dislike about Workable?

Theres not a lot I dislike, possibly adding more filters than just location so you can pinpoint exactly what you're looking for. For example; specific areas in a company or salary.

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

It gives you loads of new opportunities at your workplace. Also, helping my friend gain employment in a place of work that benefits them is an amazing feature!

"Workable has put thought behind the reviewer's experience!"
What do you like best about Workable?

I love the feature that hides each reviewer's evaluation from the other reviewers until they've written their own evaluations, to avoid influencing them. I don't know if competitors have that. I also love that reviews are editable - I use that all the time.

What do you dislike about Workable?

The format of the evaluation text isn't very readable of the evaluation is long. I have to leave several empty lines between paragraphs to make the different sections easier to tell apart.

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

I haven't used competitors' products, but Workable makes it easy to track applicants per job opening, easy to review candidate CVs and their answers to preset questions, easy to discuss with other reviewers, and easy to evaluate candidates after interviews.

What do you like best about Workable?

Ability to share roles quickly and easily with Recruiters. Reporting function is great for internal and supplier reviews. Great online support and training. We know it can do so much more.

What do you dislike about Workable?

Jobs auto archiving is a frustrating feature but only a minor gripe.

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

Workable is our dedicated sourcing platform for direct hires, recruiter supplied candidates and referrals. Being able to track candidates and roles online with a simple and smart hiring process makes the job so much easier.

"Easy to use ATS for your recruitment needs!"
What do you like best about Workable?

The best features this ATS has are the integrations with LinkedIn and Outlook, various activities automation, default and customized templates, hiring team members and roles to customize to have different access and involve during different recruitment stages etc

What do you dislike about Workable?

There are glitches when candidates apply from LinkedIn and their profiles are not correctly generated and showed on Workable (wrong picture or sometimes even the people search option is not showing the relevant candidate LinkedIn profile at all) reporting is not perfect and needs further improvement some very useful tutorial videos on Workable were deleted

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

high volume recruitment and improving information bottlenecks tracking applications and stages of recruitment timely candidate communication and improving of candidate experience

"A simple and automated way to Recruit!"
What do you like best about Workable?

Workable is a tool that can be easily used and has a lot of AI integrations that allow you, for example, to exchange and received candidate emails through the system, with a notifications page that works a bit like a cellphone (spectacular!).

What do you dislike about Workable?

Reporting and some more complex functions are a bit limited on Workable, being it is still a new ATS that requires updates and a bit more work. Overall if you want to have a tool completely customizable, Workable might not be for you.

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

Workable solved a few problems I really really liked. It has already integrated into its own system Online Video Interview and Online Assessment Test services, which is outstanding, and this was probably one of the major improvements to the tool. This allows us to have both services for free when you buy the ATS.

"Toronto Lands Corporation loves our Workable!"
What do you like best about Workable?

- Easy to learn, implement and use - training is provided to new customers, there is a variety of online resources and whenever we've used online chat/email they've been very responsive. Set up including integration with outlook and zoom was a breeze and so was the set up of the customizable careers page. - Allows for complete automation of our hiring process including offer letters which has resulted in a more effective process and positive candidate experience. - Offers a variety of interview, job descriptions, and customizable communication templates. - Allows you to post to multiple free and premium job boards at the touch of a button and to proactively source candidates. - All correspondence, testing, interviews notes become part of candidates profile record. - Allows for easy uploading resumes received outside of the Workable application. - Multiple reports are available to monitor efficiency and effectiveness in the hiring process. - You can do everything from your mobile device with the Workable App. - Overall Workable has been a game changer for our organization.

What do you dislike about Workable?

- Interview notes should automatically save to a candidates record. - Improve how candidates can apply to talent community when there are no job openings. Right now those candidates have to email their resume. - Scheduling interviews when multiple people are involved needs improvement (doesn't allow for multiple schedules, or specific blocks of availability). - More AI to help in the identification of candidates that best meet job requirements. - The ability to set standard application screening questions that are used across all job postings without having to add them each time.

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

Has fully automated our hiring process resulting in a more effective process and a better candidate experience. The benefits far outweigh the things that need to be improved.

"Excellent platform for all recruiters !!!!!"
What do you like best about Workable?

Workable is a really helpful platform for the recruietrs. It is one of the good ATS platform available in the market. The complete history for theapplicants are stored and easy to acess when required. We can search the applicant details with their name or email ID and also workable is useful in identifying duplicate profiles.

What do you dislike about Workable?

There are a few bugs in the workable. At times we won't be able to view the feedback from the interviewers. Instead, a question mark sign will pop up on the left side of the candidate's name. In such cases, we have to move the candidate to any other stage to view the feedback. This bug should be fixed.

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

I've been using this ATS platform for the past six months. It is beneficial and makes the work easy. The best thing about workability is to identify duplicate profiles. We can link workable with several job posting websites like LinkedIn, Indeed, etc. In such a situation, lots of resumes will come to the ATS. Thus workable identifies all the duplicate profiles. Even if we try to upload the duplicate resume, workable suddenly detect and stop uploading. We can see the entire history of the candidates. Workable is an excellent app for recruiters.

"Love the flexibility of this ATS."
What do you like best about Workable?

I love the collaborative features it allows for when reviewing candidates. I also love how it so easily integrates with Linkedin etc. Compared to other tools we've used, this is far superior. I also love the one-way video feature.

What do you dislike about Workable?

Nothing comes to mind at this point. I haven't played around with the workflows yet. That feature would be really important to teams wishing to scale up their hiring process

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

Having a single source of truth for candidates was the main problem we needed to solve. With Zip Recruiter, we were still pulling in our top candidates into a Monday board to manage the funnel. Now we can do all of that so easily in Workable.
