JobAdder Reviews

Very simple interface and easy to use. No complicated interface

Nothing honestly. Job Adder has all that I needed.

Where do you start - Everything including, Candidate Management, Business Development, Finance and Costing, right through to Advertising.

The Price - Its going to hurt when I have to buy more licences.

I love this piece of software, its easy to use and simple to follow. The process flows are perfect for keeping track of candidates, applications, jobs available to work on and to keep the documentation in one location. Perfect for WFH teams.

I would be great if JA could automate some of the Skills input from a resume as this is still a time-consuming task when we could be doing other things.

Hi Helen, great review. Glad you hear you've had such a positive experience so far. Regarding your feedback around automating data entry for Skills, at this stage we don't automatically skill code a Candidate for the Recruiter. However, to view Candidates with a certain skill, we'd recommend using our Resume Keyword Search. This feature searches based on skills mentioned on a Candidate's resume and works similarly to a skill code search.

The ease of ability to view your own jobs, track candidates, post job ads etc.

The ability to search our own database for candidates for new jobs is not as efficient as using say SEEK or LinkedIn Recruiter.

Thanks for providing your feedback! I would suggest using Quick Search, Saved Searches or Boolean Resume Keyword Search to supercharge your searching.

User friendly, easy to navigate. I also like the help feautre as it takes it through step by stpe

The search functionalities and the people adder use to be better

Hi Cassandra. We're really proud of our in-product learning experience and will pass on your kind feedback to the team. I'll also alert them of your concerns around accessing customer support.

absolutey love Job adder and would reccomend to any business , simple and easy to use. clear information. i love the indusrty sections where you can add so much info (optional) about candidates - inductions, skills, ect great tool for talent search

at a glance it would be good to see any important notes next to the name that dont flood to other pages when other notes are added. - simple ones impreative to the recruitment process. EG - - "banned from FMG sites"

We're so glad to hear how much you love using JobAdder and that it impacted your choice of employer. What a compliment! Regarding your feedback on adding notes to records, we recommend using custom fields to capture key information. Please contact our customer support team to set up custom fields in your account.

Integrations with multiple platforms is very helpful, customer service is great and very responsive.

Can be glitchy and slow after upgrades have taken place.

Hi Dearne, happy to hear you've had a great experience with JobAdder so far.

Ease of Use - It is very important for executives to have a very easy to use software to perform best at work. At any given time, it should never cause a hiccup or disruption to any task. Happy to share that JobAdder gets the job done!

None. As for my role and function, everything that I need is in Job Adder.

Thank you for your review, Patrick!

I love how simple and easy to follow all the features are, the support is amazing and the software is better than any others out there for sure!

I cant seem to get a hang of the new dashboard, I have always stuck to the old one!

We love to hear from clients who are happy to recommend us to their peers. It's such a great compliment. Thank you so much! Regarding the new dashboard, we have an article in our support centre that might help!

It's very user-friendly and well organised, we very rarely think of a feature that could make it better.

That there isn't a quick view of someone's compliance status.

We're glad to hear your feedback, Catarina! We have big plans around compliance, which we will notify you about once released.

JobAdder's workflows assisted us in defining and refining our hiring processes. It was simple to use.

I was unable to collaborate with my hiring teams directly on the system. I could not give the hiring managers access to the platform.

It does everything you need a decent ATS to do, at a fraction of the cost. It isn't quite as sophisticated as Bullhorn, but I much prefer it to Ceipal or erecruit. It is not convoluted or too busy, making it very easy to pick up even for someone unfamiliar to using an ATS. Also features easy drag-and-drop parsing, and it's email templates actually send in the format in which they are set up.

Isn't as customizable as other ATS, and doesn't communicate directly with many of the larger job boards. Can't cross reference candidate profiles directly to other client profiles and open orders as easily, and tracking them through the process isn't as usable/readable and it can be hard to tell where a candidate is in an interview process since there aren't really complex status options.

The desktop (like your dashboard) has two different viewings, both can give you a great glimpse of where your jobs and candidates are at

Maybe the cost, but after reviewing various others, JobAdder fell nicely into an affordable space for its features and graphics

Easy to navigate Great ability to integrate with relevant software ecosystem Mobile app is great

Nothing to complain about. This ats has been great so far.

Very user friendly and love the Folders feature

Reporting features and reports that can be used for sales metrics

Ease of workflow makes the recruiter able on with their job

Nothing, if we find an issue it fixed almost straight away / next day

The workflows and set up is very easy to understand. They have walkthrough guides for almost everything and if something doesn't work or is missing the customer service team are very fast to respond using the chat feature.

Some more integrations would be good. Especially with CRM systems. The marketing functionality is somewhat limited. There is an integration with MailChimp which is good.

Linking jobs to candidates , clients to candidates linking. - it holds all the information that you require.

I dont find it straight forward a bit complicated. Finding applicants and seeing what jobs you have open and what stage those jobs are at is the main feature that recruiters look for in a program. I dont feel that job adder does that as good as the old fastrack system does - not the new version

No pros were added to this review

No cons were added to this review

Very happy : the service, everyone has been great to deal with, friendly, happy & professional Very happy : the turnaround time of the entire thing, from start to finish in a couple of days is excellent Very happy : the end result, the data is just what we wanted, and the mockup/preview that let us confirm what we wanted worked well

Could be improved: the delivery method below via FileZilla & winzip is unnecessarily convoluted and many corporate PCs are locked down and do not have the ability to download / install applications, and even if they do, will just have to go back and uninstall them as soon as they're finished. The way you did the mockup via dropbox was far and away a superior delivery mechanism and I would entreat you to investigate shifting to using that for the delivery of the finished product also.

Easy to use Engaging user interface Fairly priced for what you get Friendly support team and great training manager

Lack of customisation - or turn around time to achieve this Long leads times for feedback on feature enhancements At times the system can be slow

JobAdder is a great cloud based CRM solution for the recruitment industry. It has a really simple and intuitive user interface across desktop and mobile platforms and integrates well with social networks and Outlook. It has all the functionality required to effectively manage the recruitment process, but in a much simpler and pared down way than other solutions. What's great is that as a vendor, the JobAdder team offer awesome support and are constantly developing the product to suit the end users. The reporting tools are excellent also. Overall, a great product and quite simply the best recruitment CRM we've used.

Nothing to say here other that if there's something that's not working as it should, the support and development team at JobAdder are great at resolving it.

We evaluated a TON of different CRMs in our recent software conversion, and I was struck immediately by the very clean look and feel to Jobadder. In fact, within 10 minutes into the demo I recall thinking "Ok! We found it!" It seemed (and still seems) very intuitive and easy to use. We love that it's web-based (our previous system was not), so is of course accessible at home, remotely, or at the office. The Jobadder support team is always friendly and easy to work with and although I can't exactly tell if they're smiling as they're responding to our support requests, it seems like they are!

We were seeking a CRM that was more intuitive and more simple than our previous one, which Jobadder is. With any transition to seemingly the other end of the spectrum, there are just a few things that we had previously that we wish we still did. For our company in particular, we would ideally like a bit more line-of-business separation of data, but we have been able to work with Jobadder just fine. And there were a few small issues that we weren't fully aware of until the conversion time, but the Jobadder folks were able to talk us through all of our options.

An extremely user friendly system even for the not so tech savvy users. We use it for all our national recruitment including graduate recruitment. You can easily send bulk emails to shortlisted candidates and it records all interactions with candidates. JobAdder support uses a ticketing system which is very efficient- You receive a response within 24 hours or most of the time within the hour....

You can easily forward CV's to hiring managers to review and provide a rating, however the system doesn't easily allow for you to send through covering letters or other documents the candidate has attached with their application to the hiring managers. Running metric reports are quite basic and limited.

Jobadder makes the applicant tracking process easy to manage if you use job boards such as Seek (who are a part-owner of Jobadder). Being able to access candidates from anywhere via this cloud based tool is great. The resume search tool is also good and the system is relatively fast given it's cloud based.

Whilst this is a slick tool, Jobadder still has a way to go in terms of being a total workflow management tool and it is quite clear that it started life as an applicant tracking tool rather than a recruitment database. If you value a database where all email correspondence is linked to clients / candidates then this one is not for you. There is no seamless link between your email client and...
