"Effortless Hiring with Seamless Integrations"
What do you like best about iHire?

I like that iHire is easy to use and integrates well with our applicant tracking system and SmartRecruiters. I particularly appreciate the ability to build out the company brand, which helps us showcase what makes our practice and company special. The platform's ease of use stands out, as well as the opportunity to personalize hospital branding, which really helps us stand out. The initial setup was super easy, and our account manager, Danielle, was incredible. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about iHire?

Nothing really, but I do want to continue to build with iHire and I'm looking to create an API so that we can collect the data into our own data warehouse. The data we get from iHire is great for top-line visibility, but we're looking to get a full funnel data review by ingesting the data alongside our applicant tracking system data. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Response from Kristina Kelly of iHire

Thank you for the wonderful review, Joelle! We'd like to hear more about your comment on importing more specification to better target and match with qualified candidates so we can best help you meet your hiring goals. Definitely let your Hiring Success Strategist know your thoughts the next time you speak. Happy hiring! ~The iHire Team

"Targeted, Effective Hiring Tool"
What do you like best about iHire?

My favorite feature that sets iHire apart is our ability to target our needs to the right audience and market. As a special education school, we are able to reach the right candidates with iHire. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about iHire?

The biggest drawback to iHire for us is the cost as a non-profit. Fortunately, as a small agency, we are not hiring a large number of people so we can keep the cost manageable. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Response from Kristina Kelly of iHire

Hi Rebecca! We appreciate your review. Our ability to target the right candidates in the right industries helps our employers hire with utmost efficiency, especially those without a dedicated on-staff HR team. Happy hiring!

"Quality Candidates and Outstanding Customer Support"
What do you like best about iHire?

I like the quality of the candidates available on iHire, as it is better than other sites where resumes are supposed to be pre-screened for qualifications but fall short. Having quality candidates in one place saves me time. I also appreciate the great customer service, especially because it's hard to find these days. Being able to speak to a person when I need help makes iHire extremely valuable. Additionally, the initial setup was very easy. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about iHire?

The only thing that comes to mind is that occasionally I will post an insurance-specific position and it will get routed to another iHire site such as Customer Service which will result in unqualified candidate applications. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Response from Kristina Kelly of iHire

Thank you for your amazing review, Sharyn! Our Customer Success team is more than happy to help when you need it, and we appreciate your feedback on quality of candidates.

"iHire Student Game Plan: Valuable Tool for Employability Skills and Career Readiness"
What do you like best about iHire?

I have used the iHire Student Game Plan for several years in a “World of Work” course. I have been pleased with the student outcomes and feedback. This course was designed to help students develop employability skills, and using the Student Game Plan aligns well with the course objectives. I highly recommend this platform. Below are some of the student comments at the end of the course.

• “The class provided valuable guidance on interviewing and networking and helped me understand how the hiring process works.”

• “I learned how to use LinkedIn and social media professionally—skills I did not have before.”

• “This course was essential in helping me prepare for graduation and the transition into the workforce.”

• “Course assignments and mock interviews strengthened my resume, improved my interview skills, and increased my confidence.” Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about iHire?

I had no problems using iHire. The cost was a value for my students. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Response from Kristina Kelly of iHire

Wow, thank you for sharing such a detailed review! We are happy our Student Game Plan (SGP) is delivering on its promises and providing your students with valuable real-world workplace advice. Thanks, Lynn!

"Intuitive IHire Experience with Helpful Applicant Scoring"
What do you like best about iHire?

I enjoy the user experience as someone that posts on IHire. It is very intuitive and easy to use. I like that there is a score that is given to each applicant as well as a summary of their resume. This is helpful in narrowing down a good applicant. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about iHire?

There are a few things I dislike about IHire, mainly around language awareness. I wish there were a feature to filter applicants by a certain level of language comprehension, although it’s possible I’m just not using the platform correctly or haven’t found that option yet. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Response from Kristina Kelly of iHire

We are happy to help you find the right people for your positions with our intuitive and easy-to-use platform. We appreciate your suggestions on language comprehension filters - you are more than welcome to reach out to our team to provide any further insights that may assist us in improving our platform. Happy hiring!

"Cost-Effective and Easy-to-Use Recruiting Tool"
What do you like best about iHire?

I appreciate iHire's reasonable monthly cost for posting open positions, as it is more cost-effective than pay-per-click job boards. I find the platform easy to use and helpful for reviewing applications. The customer service is excellent, and it's great that I can actually speak with a person. I also found the initial setup to be very easy. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about iHire?

I find that applicants don't seem to read the job requirements or will not be truthful in their answers to screening questions, but that can happen with any job posting site. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Response from Kristina Kelly of iHire

Hi Maggie - Thank you for sharing your feedback on our cost-effective, easy-to-use platform and personalized customer support. We are happy to help you continue to meet your hiring goals.

"Exceptional Support and Qualified Candidates with iHire"
What do you like best about iHire?

Working with the team at iHire has been exceptional. Where I struggled with my hiring process on those other job boards, the team at iHire has allowed me to find qualified candidates instead of wasting my budget on applicants who do not hold the credentials we required. Implementation was easy and when we decided to jump into a 1 year agreement it was also very simple. We love getting the daily digest for the saved resume searches. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about iHire?

We are very new to the platform but I can see downsides to the specific niche of the medical world we are hiring for. When there just aren't candidates, it's hard to hold that against the job board. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Response from Kristina Kelly of iHire

That's amazing to hear, Mary! You're exactly right - our platform's industry focus cuts out the "noise" of unqualified candidates that you may attract on general job boards. We appreciate you sharing your review and look forward to continue helping you meet your hiring goals.

"High Quality Candidates for Manufacturers"
What do you like best about iHire?

The fact that it is focused on the manufacturing arena saves us a lot of time searching for specialists on other sites. Also, the AI rating is very helpful and spot on. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about iHire?

Some of the ways to find things could be simplified slightly (reduce click-rate). Also, the site tends to load slower than others. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Response from Kristina Kelly of iHire

Thank you for your review! Our industry-specific talent communities, like iHireManufacturing, are designed to bring you the most relevant candidates, and we are happy to hear they are doing just that. Happy hiring!

"Useful Tool, But Outdated Resumes and Search Issues Persist"
What do you like best about iHire?

I'm on the fence. I like that I can source for candidates. Yet, I'm not too pleased with the pool of candidates. I like the idea that I can filter out resumes I already viewed, yet that filter has been rendered usuless, as I still see viewed resumes even when I select do not show. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about iHire?

Candidates I viewed still show up in my search when I select not to show. Large number of outdated resumes (I shared this with my rep several times). Lack of fresh candidates. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Response from Kristina Kelly of iHire

Hi Dionica- Thank you for sharing your feedback. I've passed along your concerns to your Hiring Success Strategist so we can continue working with you to optimize your search filters and ensure you're finding the best possible candidates.

"Robust Hiring Platform with Standout Features"
What do you like best about iHire?

I like iHire because their platform is robust and has several internal tools that are helpful. I appreciate the scoring system that helps identify standout applicants, and I like the ability to communicate with clients via text and email. Their job postings are more standout than our typical website posting. Additionally, the initial setup was extremely easy, and I liked that they set up a Zoom call with a representative who walked me through their enhanced product. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about iHire?

There was nothing that I dislike about their product. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Response from Kristina Kelly of iHire

Thank you for the review, Pam! We love hearing that you appreciate our Applicant iScore, candidate messaging tools, and high-touch customer support. We hope to continue working with you to meet your hiring goals. ~The iHire Team
