Pros

“The ability to collect structured feedback and reviews from interviewers helps improve the quality of hiring decisions, and features like scheduling, templates, and customizable stages save a lot of time. While a few advanced features could be more flexible, Workable remains a reliable, efficient, and user‑friendly ATS that supports a modern recruiting workflow from start to finish.”

Eromal R.

Network Engineer

“From the very start, it's clear that Workable was designed with teams like ours in mind — intuitive, ease of implementation, feature‑rich, great candidate sourcing capabilities, and built to scale. If you’re looking for an applicant tracking system that helps you hire faster, collaborate effortlessly, and grow with confidence, Workable is a standout choice. And when you're supported by an account executive as thoughtful and proactive as [sensitive content hidden], it becomes a truly powerful recruitment partner.”

David N.

Head of Human Resources

“For example, if you write up a long application process including yes or no questions to filter out candidates, as well as text-based questions, etc. and then select the option post the job to job boards, Workable auto-deletes the questions you've spent so much time writing.”

Zahari N.

Legal Adviser

Pros

“As a technical recruiter, I rely heavily on Boolean search, filters, projects, saved searches, and InMail to find and contact qualified passive candidates.”

Flavia C.

Senior Recruiter

“We use LinkedIn Recruiter across our hiring team for everything from sourcing candidates through to managing pipelines and coordinating outreach.”

Krystal M.

People and Finance Operations

“The platform also works well for team collaboration, allowing multiple recruiters to work on the same pipeline without things getting disorganised.”

Krystal M.

People and Finance Operations

Cons

“The only problem i faced is that I am unable to upload bulk sheets or add bulk comments. Since we do the screening and add HRBP comments in comment section if there was a system to bulk upload HRBP comments this would be easy”

Ayesha K.

HR Generalist

“You have duplicate applicants for different roles, which is tricky they do attach them together in the corner so you have to remember to check. If you're searching passive candidates, you cannot add notes unless you add them to a live job, which makes no sense at all.”

Yvette S.

Talent Advidor

“It seems like it takes up a lot of RAM on the computer, though some of my colleagues don't report this issue so may be my computer but it doesn't do this with other sites/tabs. When typing, it almost freezes and takes a long time for the information to appear and so to limit mistakes, it is best to type on Notepad and then copy and paste it in later.”

James C.

Recruitment Advisor

Cons

“This lack of comparable alternatives makes it difficult to judge whether LinkedIn Recruiter is genuinely the best product or simply the only realistic option for many recruiters.”

Flavia C.

Senior Recruiter

“The subscription fees are expensive, especially for small companies or individual recruiters, this made hard for right person to reach the suitable company.”

Angel C.

“This can make the lower tiers feel unnecessarily limited despite their cost.”
