Pros
“Applicant Stack is an enjoyable tool that alerts me when I have a new candidate and provides me with their availability, work history, and resume all in one spot.”
AM

ANGELA M.

Leadership

“It’s a reliable tool for managing the hiring process, offering helpful features like customizable workflows and seamless candidate communication.”
VF

Violet F.

Field marketing coordinator

“Makes a huge difference in efficiency and communication within the team with the transparent notes section, so we can track the entire process with each candidate.”
KK

Kimberly K.

CEO and Founder

Cons
“When posting a job on the job boards, the budget could be higher or lower than the job board itself. If you set your budget at $1000, it was a little confusing to see how far that stretches.”
AB

Aaron B.

HR

“I didn't like the fact that ApplicantStack doesn't have a reference check program or a vendor partner (like Harver).”
EH

Elizabeth H.

Payroll and Accounting

“The fact that some of the pre-built templates have few modification choices makes it difficult to completely customize the system to meet unique demands, which is one feature of ApplicantStack that I liked least.”
