Overall, Lever is useful and good. The analytics are useful and overall interface pleasant to use.

The platform is clean and super easy to use, and their customer service is super dedicated. The value for money is clear.

Talent Acquisition Manager

Great experience so far. Lever has already saved me and my team multiple hours in organising interviews and tracking pipeline progress.

Chief of Staff

I also don't like the lack of formatting options in the feedback text boxes - for example, bullets copied in from a Word or Google Doc are lost, resulting in garbled text.

Head of TA

Awful Career page function and design. Poor design for candidate experience.

Its a good ATS system overall and great with our recruitment efforts.

VP Marketing

I love how it's now so easy to review lots of candidates at speed. The platform is intuitive and easy to use, drawing in the right information that you need on candidates.

Recruiter

We love the nurture campaigns. It is easy for us to share information with our hiring managers.

Operations Associate

I love that Lever offers our nonprofit organization a whole lot of recruiting and tracking opportunities without breaking our operational budget.

Technical Product Owner

The UI is clean and straightforward. This definitely helps make navigating the actual system fairly simple and easy to do.

And you can filter it down by job, recruiter, etc. which is also really helpful. It's really the best UI / UX of any ATS pipeline that we've seen.

Talent Acquisition

Extremely easy to use and integrated with the GSuite makes this product super easy to use.

Talent Acquisition Advisor

The implementation was very smooth, the best software implementation any of us have been involved in.

Also the tight linkedin integration is nice. Oh, and two-way email sync with gmail is a critical feature for us that not all ATS have.

Corporate Recruiter

SO if you have a logo, Facebook, Instagram, Twitter logo expect a blank entry. Customer Service told us we were doing it wrong.

HR & Talent Manager

The support team is extremely helpful and responds quickly. The launchpad site with hundreds of posts on how to use the features is invaluable.

Recruitment Operations Specialist

Department/team set up - as this affects the entire system and automation it is very hard to set it up correctly, as we are an organization of larger scale, it is just not enough granular for us.

Good & Welfare Officer 

Since Google Hire was going away, Lever stepped up to challenge of meeting our hiring needs. We've been pleased with the customer service and support after working with them recently.

Lever has been a fantastic addition to our team, revolutionizing the way we manage our recruitment process. Its user-friendly interface and intuitive design have made our daily tasks significantly easier. The dedicated customer support and implementation team have been invaluable in ensuring a smooth transition.

We've particularly appreciated Lever's ability to streamline our workflow. Posting jobs across multiple platforms with a single click has saved us countless hours. The platform's comprehensive candidate management tools have enhanced our ability to track candidates efficiently, minimizing the risk of losing top talent.

Lever's robust sourcing capabilities have been instrumental in building a strong talent pipeline. The analytics and reporting features provide us with invaluable insights, enabling data-driven decisions to optimize our recruitment strategy.

Finally, Lever's seamless integration with our existing systems has significantly reduced manual work and increased efficiency.

Laminar's Implementation journey with Lever (a game-changer!)

We had an excellent experience with [sensitive content hidden] our Account Rep from beginning to end (very attentive), and [sensitive content hidden] did a great job with our prep to Launch. 

Paramedic Service of Illinois - Great experience with Lever Team

Super Smooth Lever Implementation

Lever Review

So far, we have had a fantastic and smooth implementation process leading up to our go-live. [sensitive content hidden]
 willingness to go above and beyond to answer all of our questions (sometimes multiple times over) and make himself available whenever something came up made this a truly stress-free implementation. Anyone who has ever implemented a product will tell you, those words don't usually go together. Truly grateful for his outstanding customer service and guidance! 

Great Implementation with [sensitive content hidden]! 

Great ATS With Automation

Overall very good - many members of the business use the software and have found it to be easy to use and meet their recruitment needs.

End-to-end recruitment

Echoing what I shared above - Working with [sensitive content hidden]
 was amazing - he is extremely thorough, responsive, and made this a seamless process for us. We couldn't have gotten through the implementation without him!

[sensitive content hidden] is the best!!!

It's been an awesome experience from purchase to implementation. I love using it daily! It's a great tool that allows me to do my job efficiently and effectively as a recruiter.

Lever is the best ATS i've ever used!

Easy to Submit Candidates

We recently adopted Lever as our new ATS. At the beginning of our ATS search, we went through several demos with other systems, but Lever was the obvious choice for us right from the beginning.
Not only did the system offer everything we needed from a new ATS, the customer service at Lever was top notch. [sensitive content hidden]
 was our Implementation Specialist. In my 14-15+ years, I can hands-down say that I have never received such exceptional customer service and support like I did with [sensitive content hidden]. not only is a Lever subject matter expert, but he is passionate about what he does and it shines through in every conversation. His response time is unmatched. I cannot say enough great things about Lever, and more specifically [sensitive content hidden]
. Thanks for such a great product, with great support! I highly recommend Lever to anyone looking for a new ASTS.

If you're looking for a new ATS, look at Lever!

Highly Recommend Lever!

Good tool for recruiting and screening applicants

By far the best ATS that I have used in 15 years of recruiting. The UI is intuitive, the ability to manage your pipeline using is as easy as they come. The reporting is accurate and it is easy to identify what impacts and triggers. I did 15 demos before deciding on Lever. And after each Demo I felt like there were missing tools or a misalignment on what those ATS did vs what I believed was an effective way to manage candidates through the interview process. With Lever I felt like the softwares functionality matched with my philosophy on recruiting and the candidate experience. 

The best ATS

I have used Lever as an employer and employee and it's a great tool. 

A great tool to promote upskilling and career development, 

My experience has been highly satisfactory and positive. I have found in this platform a reliable ally to optimize my recruitment process and effectively manage all stages of recruitment.

An essential ally for successful recruiters

It has been great working with Lever and building recruiting workflow in the system. They have a very well planned implementation process.

Great system and implementation

Easy to configure ATS that provides a great candidate, recruiter, and hiring manager experience

Overall 4/5. There are things that I would change but as I said it does the job. At the end of the day, it is all a question of your usage, your team, the scale of the business, and ofc your budget. Lever is a great solution if you have a small team under 10 recruiters, company size under 1k, and a small budget to operate with. If you know how to run scrappy and get things done, Lever is a solid choice. 

Does the job on the budget. If you have $ go with a more expensive one. 

Strong UX

My company is going through an exciting scale-up stage and to support the company with hiring efforts we decided to modernize our recruitment stack.
Implementing Lever was very easy across the whole organisation - the implementation specialist - [SENSITIVE CONTENT] - offered top-notch support during the whole implementation journey and the migration of candidate data from our previous ATS went seamless. 
Since adoption, the hiring team saved lots of time in sourcing and gathering the interview feedbacks, as it allowed us to automate several critical tasks.

Great tool to support with hiring in a scale-up phase

Lever used to be a great program with lots of features, they just ruined it with the new roll out.

New rollouts

Overall, I have always enjoyed using Lever and have appreciated the feature and integrations updates they have continued to make over the years which has definitely improved the ease of use.

Love using this ATS

I used Lever for years at RedOwl (but was not involved in the implementation) and implemented it here at Cybrary. It has had an immediate positive impact. I have recommended it to friends in the past from a user's perspective and now that I've gone through deploying/implementing it, I only feel that much stronger and more positive about your product and recommending it.

Smooth, easy, and frustration free

I have ~10 years of recruiting experience, Lever is by far the best ATS in my opinion. The pipeline-centric product was very intuitive, came with great functionality, including Google/ Slack/ DocuSign integration. Love the UI, easy to follow/ track our job postings and candidates. The UI was excellent, most of my team took very little time to get comfortable with this platform - a big boost for employee participation in recruitment. We have a very small recruiting team, Lever really made a huge difference to the way we manage the candidate journey. Bonus: Excellent sales and customer support team, it's always a joy to work with them!

Top-notch ATS

Analyst

I was so mad when I switched companies and they discontinued using Lever

Jennifer R.:                                           My name is Jennifer. I'm an analyst. I rate Lever four out of five. And for more reviews like this, click below.
                                                       We use Lever as a recruiting tool. So if I wanted to refer someone, I would go into Lever, put their resume in, or send them a referral link. It made it super easy for me to refer people and track the status of their application.
                                                       The thing I like the most about the software is it was so easy to use, searching the jobs that were available at my company was really easy. And the user interface from the application side of things was very easy to use.
                                                       However, what I didn't like about lever is there wasn't a lot of data that I could look at. It was difficult to see how my referrals were stacking up against other people. And I would've just like to have seen little bit more data analytics from it.
