Pros

“We found the CRM piece robust and were able to set up our system and dashboards for ultimate efficiency, but there was a definite learning curve, and your team will need to go the extra mile with setup to utilize it to its full potential.”
LC

Lisa C.

Talent Acquisition Manager

“Hire enabled a more structured and efficient recruiting process, with strong pipeline visibility and collaboration capabilities.”
MM

Monica M.

HR Generalist

“Integrations can be setup to other vendors and you can proxy in as users.”
AB

Aarti B.

HRIS Manager

Pros

“I can work my own searches and candidates while also making those candidates and opportunities available to other recruiters, creating possibilities that simply wouldn't exist inside a standalone database.”

“It provides independent recruiters with valuable tools, networking opportunities, and access to resources that would be difficult to build individually.”
PP

Pragya P.

Recruiter

“I especially like the ability to connect with other recruiting professionals, share opportunities, and access a broader candidate pool.”

Pragya P.

Recruiter

Cons

“There is no single reason i can say i did not like about icims... maybe sometimes having duplicate profiles created causes an issue until integration we can't know regarding the duplicate profile.”

HR Assistant

“Instead I have to spend more time scrolling the list to find what is needed.”
SB

Stephanie B.

Human Resource Lead

“While iCIMS was a very powerful tool, it was not super user-friendly.”
LC

Lisa C.

Talent Acquisition Manager

Cons

“After many years in this business, I don't get particularly excited about software simply because it has new features.”
Verified reviewer profile picture

Steve T.

“My only negative (if you can call it that) is that there are really no features to help enter clients into the databse. ”
BK

Bill K.

President

“I don't like the way contacts tht are hiring authorities appear to show up as candidates as well.”
