Hireology Reviews

“Centralized job and candidate management

Pros

Job postings, applicant tracking and candidate communication are all centralized in one place. Managing everything from a single dashboard is so convenient.... it keeps me organized and saves me from constantly switching between tools.

Cons

At first I struggled to get the hang of it but after spending some time using it everything became much easier.

“Great ATS!

Pros

Hireology is excellent for streamlined hiring of a few positions. I appreciate the tagging feature, which allows me to pull previous applicants into a pool for future outreach. The analytics provided are also fantastic!

Cons

It would be beneficial if they could introduce more features to facilitate the hiring process and make the platform more user-friendly.

“easy reference checks and onboarding

Pros

Hiring previously interviewed candidates is easy and I find SkillSurvey reference checks and electronic onboarding paperwork make the workflow simple and accessible.

Cons

One of my main frustrations with this platform is that I can't send a direct link to a candidate's email so they can complete their qualification or onboarding forms. Sometimes applicants mistype or lose access to the email address on file. We really need a smoother, more efficient way to re-send or forward those links to them.

“Easy multi-board job postings

Pros

Posting a single job ad and distributing it across multiple boards is very easy and I find the process saves time and effort.

Cons

Unfortunately we can't post a blind ad which means we have to pay extra fees to publish the listing directly on Indeed.

“simple candidate search with support

Pros

Searching for candidates is simple and I find the support team extremely friendly and helpful.

Cons

To be honest there's not much negative. I just feel we need to attract more candidates and applicants somehow.

“Fantastic single-spot candidate management

Pros

For me this platform is fantastic because it lets me view every applicant and all job listings in a single spot making it easy to manage candidates for hiring.

Cons

I find it hard to search for applicants when I don't know which job posting they applied to.

“User-friendly daily reporting

Pros

The platform feels very user-friendly and I find the daily reports absolutely fantastic.

Cons

For me there's nothing to complain about. I enjoy how the results are delivered.

“clear applicant information display

Pros

Displaying each applicant's complete information is clear and I really appreciate that it accurately shows how they scored on follow-up questionnaires.

Cons

Since I don't use all of the program's features I can't really point to anything I dislike or consider my least favorite part of the software.

“indispensable NetChex integration

Pros

NetChex integration has been indispensable and I find onboarding a smooth, hassle-free experience because of it.

Cons

Whenever I can't access applicant data, it's almost always because managers forgot to clear the job data.

“easy navigation for hires

Pros

Navigation is easy and I appreciate how simple it is for incoming hires to get started.

Cons

Nothing as the product is helpful and easy.

“Checklist guides onboarding progress

Pros

The checklist feature helps me see exactly where I am in the onboarding journey and I find the tagging idea intriguing, even though it's still early to judge its full impact.

Cons

To me the onboarding feels like it would benefit from being laid out in clear, sequential steps rather than relying on figuring out which button or function to use at any given moment. Also, attaching files to a comment rather than placing them in an Applicant folder strikes me as unusual and somewhat confusing.

“Easy prospect communication

Pros

Using this product is extremely easy and I find it a great way to connect and communicate with prospects directly.

Cons

At first, a few steps felt a bit difficult when I was using a different payroll system but after I figured things out it actually works pretty well.

“simple interview stage management

Pros

Moving applicants through interview stages is easy and I find the onboarding workflow uncomplicated while letting me update candidate profiles and track each step efficiently.

Cons

Because we integrated this tool with our scheduling system, I've found it frustrating that it ends up creating duplicate candidate profiles whenever people apply to more than one role, or when they are transferred between departments or positions.

“efficient candidate sorting

Pros

Sorting through applicants is simple and I appreciate being able to put chosen candidates onto a separate list.

Cons

There's nothing missing, the product adequately meets our needs

“easy job listing feedback

Pros

Posting job listings is very easy and I find the feedback from other searches quite useful.

Cons

Finding the option to turn off job postings was somewhat tricky for me to locate.

“User-friendly dashboard and features

Pros

This tool is really user-friendly. I appreciate the dashboard and how simple it is to locate what I need. I've begun using their drug-testing option for new hires and so far I'm pleased with it.

Cons

When it comes to drug testing, I'd prefer a step-by-step walkthrough. Right now I only see that the applicant completed their information and then I receive the final results.

“centralized candidate details

Pros

Using it is easy, everything's centralized and it keeps all my candidates' details and documents organized.

Cons

From my experience I've seen the system alter the pay rate on a job ad and fail to syndicate the listing to LinkedIn or Indeed which left me with no applicants at all and I notice this problem comes up frequently.

“Fast alerts with background checks

Pros

It's fast and easy and I really like the alerts plus the preliminary background checks.

Cons

When searching through candidates I struggle to clearly identify their job functions which slows me down.

“Limited candidate availability

Pros

The sales presentation was smooth and polished...it almost seemed too good to be true to me...... which it was

Cons

At several points we received very few candidates and I found that those who were put forward didn't meet our basic criteria such as being available to work in our location.

“precise job posting and filtering

Pros

This tool is super simple to work with whenever I need to post job openings and it offers a wide range of features that let me filter applicants so precisely. I really appreciate being able to narrow the candidate pool down because it gives me confidence that the right job seekers are actually coming through our doors!

Cons

One small issue I have is that whenever I select a candidate, the platform forces me to choose between two fixed categories, it's not a deal breaker for me but it does feel restrictive.
