What do you like best about The Applicant Manager?

I love how customizable TAM is. Ive used many different applicant tracking systems in my career but the problem that i've found with the others is the lack of ability to customize. Working in the government contracting industry my candidates require a security clearance. Other systems I've used don't allow me to easily, or even at all, create fields for clearance information and levels. This is just one of nuances in this industry that I need my applicant tracking system to be able to sort by, run reports on, and identify. The folks at TAM were able to show me how to create fields, prescreening questions, and store information for this. It is very easy to set up so that the user can create exactly what they need to see for their specific industry requirements. Other systems seem to be based on a very generic version of what someone in the recruiting/staffing industry should need and doesn't recognize that not all industries are the same. I also love that it integrates with my email to capture all of the back and forth with my candidates so that I can go back and revisit candidates years later and remember all of the correspondence with them. Plus the staff at TAM doesn't just set you up and disappear.They are always available to help make changes or review updates they've made. They are dedicated to making sure that their customers are getting the most out of their tool, which is also extremely reasonably priced compared to its competitors.

What do you like best about The Applicant Manager?

I have been recruiting for over a decade, and TAM is probably the most user friendly and cost effective platform that I have used (I am experienced in at least a half-dozen different applicant tracking databases). Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about The Applicant Manager?

The dashboard is a bit old-fashioned as far as ATS systems go, but it's still very easy to read and understand. It's also customizable, so that outweighs the dated look and feel. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I also love that I can export anything to whatever format I like. Really starting to appreciate the extensive reports as well. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about The Applicant Manager?

I wish there was a way to assign a task with an email and have the email sent out on it's own without having to set a permanent trigger. And I wish it was more mobile friendly for sure. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about The Applicant Manager?

TAM is excellent for being able to pick up very easily by users of the system including managers with little experience using applicant management software. It also is highly configurable. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about The Applicant Manager?

I was not employed by Auberge Resorts when this tool was selected, but it seems that there are disjointed pieces and functionality between different sites within our company. This could also be the downside to how highly configurable it is. We have had a problem that has been unable to be resolved by the TAM service team - hiring manager notification when statuses have been changed or notes have been input.
