ApplicantStack Reviews

Pros

What I love most about this software is how easily I can track the status of every application, whether is new, pending or from the past. The notes section and the different stage assignments make communicating with our team incredibly smooth. Plus the automated rejection emails save us a lot of time. They are also great because they let applicants know they might not be right for one job but could be a perfect fit for another role later on. Overall the whole system makes the hiring, interview and pre-screening process so efficient that even the candidates are impressed when they call us back. I can pull up all their information instantly which really shows a level of professionalism that makes our company stand out.

Cons

my only small suggestion is that it would be really helpful if there were a way to select a large group of applicants and send rejection letters for the same position all at once. This might already be a feature but I just have not figured out how to do it yet.

Pros

It is fairly easy to use and I really like the resume feature. Plus I can see how many times someone has applied which is useful.

Cons

Right now I only get emails for complete applications. It would also be helpful to receive leads for inquiries that are not finished yet. another great feature would be a gender option on the application form. That way, I can properly address applicants with titles like mr. or ms. when they have gender-neutral names.

Pros

I'm a big fan of how they've set this up. It's not fancy or flashy. From the minute you start, you're not confused. everything is where you think it should be. It's one of the least frustrating systems I've ever had to learn, it basically has no learning curve, which is amazing

Cons

I did not face any issues while using it.

Pros

Okay, so the best part is how it automatically groups all the applicants by the specific job opening. No more messy spreadsheets! Plus, you can set up a must-have question that automatically weeds out people who don't meet the basic criteria. It's seriously a huge time-saver and super easy to figure out.

Cons

The app does not group all applications from the same applicant into one profile which leads to duplicate applications. This makes it harder for us to rehire previous applicants.

Pros

I love that this app lets you collect applications, message candidates and complete the onboarding process all in one place.

Cons

I noticed that the texting system has a few glitches like when you receive a message, it pops up multiple times like 5 to 10 times until you click off and back on.

Pros

It was very easy to use and user friendly before the update. also I love that it keeps track of emails sent to candidates.

Cons

In the beginning I liked that it was a stand-alone platform but we eventually moved our applicant tracking over to our payroll system to make the onboarding process a lot easier and faster.

Pros

I really like how it syncs with my email, so I get an instant notification whenever someone applies.

Cons

It would be helpful if it were easier to move a candidate through the different stages of each job.

Pros

This is a real game-changer. every job posting goes live on our site automatically, which cuts out a ton of manual work. It's a massive help.

Cons

Nothing much but it would be really nice if we could add more users to our account without having to pay an extra fee for each person.

Pros

I am a really big fan of the new categories as they let me organize and move the Direct Care Workers around much more efficiently.

Cons

One thing I do not like that we cannot transfer some of the older applicants into the new buckets.

Pros

The best part is how easy it is to use and the ability to communicate directly with candidates is a huge plus for me and my team.

Cons

There have not been any major issues but I would love to see an improved user interface/dashboard.

Pros

applicantstack is amazing because it tracks everything about an applicant from their applications and notes to all our emails. The texting and email functions are a total lifesaver and make the whole recruiting process so much smoother.

Cons

I had trouble finding multiple applications for the same person as they were not linked. One applicant had seven applications and each time I searched for her name, I had to figure out which one I was working with.

Pros

It's simple to use and works well in various scenarios. We love that even if someone isn't familiar with online applications, we can offer a paper option, upload it, and still use the aTs system seamlessly. Plus, it's extremely affordable

Cons

at the moment I cannot think of anything that I dislike. It seems to do everything we need it to.

Pros

I love that all the necessary onboarding documents can be easily sent to candidates and stored for future use. also with it, it is simple to transfer them to axis Care whenever we need them.

Cons

While the basic application information transfers to axis with ease, I wish the additional paperwork we send to applicants could also be moved over with just a click like the basic application.

Pros

as a recruiter, I love that I get instant updates whenever candidates make changes to their online applications. This keeps me completely in the loop and helps me stay on top of every application.

Cons

I don't need notifications for every single applicant update,just the ones related to the specific search or position I'm overseeing. a more targeted notification system would be really helpful.

Pros

I find it really easy to use and the candidate screening process is absolutely top-notch. It helps us find the best people for the job quickly and efficiently.

Cons

The limited number of seats is a bit confusing. I do not understand why it's restricted.

Pros

sending onboarding documents and reviewing applicants is not a problem anymore thanks to applicantstack.

Cons

Umm process of moving an applicant from the interview stage to hiring and onboarding could be a lot smoother. Right now I sometimes have to manually place someone into the onboarding process which feels like an extra step. also the way applicants see the onboarding section especially the medical questionnaire and direct deposit form often confuses them. The layout is not as clear as it could be. and applicants don't always transfer over to Wellsky automatically and there is no clear explanation for why it happens. so some better error messages or tracking would really help.

Pros

The platform is pretty easy to use and offers great customization options that can fit a wide variety of our needs.

Cons

I cannot think of any cons. The platform is very easy to use and set up.

Pros

This software helps me send out determination letters both efficiently and on time which keeps our entire hiring process running smoothly.

Cons

Well I wish I could upload pictures to applicants profiles to help me remember them better.

Pros

entering data is quick and easy. I have used many systems before but this one is user-friendly.

Cons

The transition to onboarding requires switching between different stages. In recruiting we are all about making things quicker and easier but this process sometimes slows me down.

Pros

It is very well-organized, easy to navigate and incredibly user-friendly. In short everything is right where we want it to be.

Cons

I cannot think of anything specific that bothers me but it would be great to make changes more easily.
