Pros

It has been a really good experience, and the candidates also like the way the platform helps the process, besides that, the customer support it's really fast and friendly.
It is good, the product integrates well with other solution sets that help to enhance functionality a little bit more. The are products out there that can help on Campus and Scheduling interviews.
Overall amazing experience and highly recommend for any organization that has an active recruiting department.

Pros

This are a application it is give you good opportunity for you carrere best job opportunity easily and comfortable i got job by this application in rapipay as sales Executive.
My overall experience was amazing. I love Indeed it is a awesome website to find jobs on.
Indeed is a good online portal for candidates to search for jobs and recruiters to find the best talent available in the market.

Cons

Fraud, bordering on criminal- Don't use Greenhouse.
The UI is a little bit complicated. Sometimes I'm getting lost when I try to find someone I have interviewed a while ago.
What's most lacking about GH is the inability to view all candidates in a pipeline in one page/snapshot.

Cons

There are companies that will spam you with requests. I ended up getting 50+ emails a day from a company and I really hated that.
This outrageous action has harmed my company by delaying our hiring process, damaging our relationship with potential staff and making us look unprofessional to potential employees.
That you cannot erase messages that have been sent that you can only archive these messages. That you can run into some fraudulent job offers on this site if your aware.

Greenhouse

I’ve experienced better

Reviewed 4 years ago

My company currently uses Greenhouse and I have to honestly say I am not a fan of it.

Pros

Cheap software, if you are looking to save money. Interview questions are placed on each candidates profile. Stages to each candidate. Can schedule and have the confirmation email sent automatically.

Cons

Ease of use for as features is not as feasible as I would like. It’s very complicated when trying to add a candidate to more than one role. When adding jobs it doesn’t always reach indeed automatically. Picks up less candidates than we need and have to end up purchasing an indeed/LinkedIn subscription when we have a dire need for hiring.

Greenhouse

Great tool once you understand it, has room for improvement

Reviewed 5 years ago
Pros

Customer onboarding provides you with a checklist of the steps on setting up your tool. I liked that enables collaboration within the hiring teams, Google Spreadsheets reporting feature, scorecards customizable for all positions, automatic integration with Glassdoor, Indeed and LinkedIn jobs, customizable interview and offer templates, approval process, integrations (BambooHR, Join, Small Improvements, G Suite).

Cons

Reporting is not customized, basic careers page could be much better looking, I would wish teams could adjust the view (list of candidates or Kanban board view), tagging and CRM feature could be more recruiting team not individual focused (fee applies with every new CRM feature user), reporting could be more visual. It has a hefty price tag.

Greenhouse

Better every year

Reviewed 5 years ago

I have been suing Greenhouse since 2014 and have loved the new features and usability over the years. It's easy to train new hires and it houses all the information necessary when making a hiring decision.

Pros

The organization of Greenhouse is very clear and self-explanatory. I don't have to train interviewers on what to do because the system and notifications are so thorough. I like the integrations a lot.

Cons

The reporting has always been a bit iffy in terms of accuracy. It is not Greenhouse's decision or fault, but my job posts that push to Indeed and Glassdoor never update. I have to create a new posting and repost in order to have the job refreshed on job boards. Creating a new job distorts reporting.

Greenhouse

This is the best recruitment/HR tool!

Reviewed 2 years ago

Love it!

Pros

I have been working in recruitment for over 2 years with several tools, and since I started using Greenhouse, I find every day a thing why I love it even more. The possibilities are endless with all the integrations, the customer success and content are really easy to follow, and it's such a great system for us and candidates. If I don't know how something works or I think "this would be nice" and I google it, it's always possible/to solve with Greenhouse

Cons

Only thing is the job posting. it's take a while before it's posted on the board. When we want to post it on indeed remote, then we loose it on the jobboard & when we copy paste part of a text in the job post from word, then we set up is different - eventhough we use the same colour/type etc, it still is shown differentl

Indeed

Our Go-To Job Board for Hires

Reviewed 4 years ago

Other than our inconsistencies with our previous account team, our experience has been as expected. Indeed is our go-to job board that we can count on to produce a hire.

Pros

Indeed is easy to use and their tracking/analytic data has improved over the years. I am extremely hands on and like to set up, pause, delete our own sponsored job campaigns which they allow you to do. Finally was able to get our jobs scraped from our ATS Greenhouse onto Indeed so we do not have to manually post jobs anymore (THANK GOODNESS!). We hire about 30% of our employees from indeed.

Cons

Customer Support/Account Managers! Worked with our previous account manager for the last 4 years. He seemed spread too thin and was never my go-to for quick responses to questions I had about our account. He would consistently send e-mails about touching base and go unresponsive after we would respond about times we were available for a call. On multiple occasions we would have a call scheduled, would...
